The Milk House, beautiful dairy cottage, pet friendly and beautiful views

The Milk House is a beautifully refurbished old dairy with wonderful views over our farmland and wood. We were with Holiday Lettings for 14 years and averaged 5 star rating the entire time. It is within a few minutes of Erlestoke woods, the Salisbury Plain & the Erlestoke 18 hole Golf Club. Stonehenge, Bath, Salisbury & Marlborough are all within 30 minutes.

There is a double bedroom on the ground floor with a bathroom next door, very good for the more immobile and at the other end of the cottage is a single bedroom (where, on request, we can put a proper 8th bed up), there is a toilet and basin in the next room. Upstairs is a twin room and a double room with a family bathroom in between, which has a beautiful antique roll top bath. All the bedrooms can fit in a cot (or two) or the 8th proper bed, depending on your group, We have furnished the Milk House with antique prints, furniture and old photographs of our historic dairy. We have taken a great deal of care to make it supremely comfortable with all the modern conveniences: lighting, fibre optic WiFi, playstations and everything you could need in a modern kitchen to cook and to entertain yet with a traditional touch.

There are many different walks to do directly from the house. We are next to the Salisbury Plain, the largest area of unspoilt chalk land in Europe. Erlestoke Woods are even closer and no one can miss the carpet of bluebells every spring. We have our own huge vegetable patch, orchard with plums, pears, and apples where you can pick produce and flowers in season right by the cottage. The house and buildings were built in the 18th century, and our wood was where the original saxon settlement here was founded, with coins still being found very recently by our neighbours. We are in idyllic surroundings with wonderful views over the edge of the Salisbury Plain. There is so much to do nearby yet it is lovely enough to just relax and do as much or as little as you want.
