Located in the picturesque Dorset village of Loders, this quaint, traditional stone, workers cottage, has been transformed into a comfortable holiday cottage with charm and character. Once thatched, but now under a slate roof, the accommodation is ideal for families of up to six, or friends sharing and has outstanding views across a large garden and onto the popular walker's haven of Boarsbarrow Hill, with its abundance of birds and wildlife. Set within a rural, conservation area, Farthing Cottage has a great deal to offer those wishing for a quiet base to explore this area of outstanding natural beauty.  There is something for all the family and more besides - nearly 300 coastal and countryside walks to choose from and a busy calendar of local festivals and events throughout the year. Guests will receive a delightful welcome pack and a very warm welcome from the owners.
