About the home
Bluebell Cottage is situated on the outskirts of Henstridge village – a small rural settlement on the border between Dorset and Somerset. As one of three holiday homes, this charming single storey mid terrace offers a stylish open-plan living-area, one double bedroom and a luxurious wet room with shower. Local amenities such as the village shop, pubs, restaurants and café are all within easy walking distance, though for a wider variety of establishments, the historic town of Sherborne is also close by, making this a great location for your holiday, no matter what time of year.

The West Country / Somerset region
The home of traditional farmhouse cider, Somerset offers 3 areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty - the Quantock, Mendip and Blackdown Hills. Lose yourself in the glory of nature, take a ride on a steam train, visit a traditional farmers’ market or explore your mystical side at Glastonbury. Don’t forget the great cathedral at Wells and the vibrant cities of Bristol and Bath. Explore the fossils and stunning beaches of Dorset’s Jurassic Coast, visit historic Sherborne and Shaftesbury, or enjoy the footpaths, country lanes and thatched-roof pubs Dorset offers.
The Templecombe / Henstridge area
Used as the backdrop to Thomas Hardy's ‘Tess of the D'Urbervilles’, the lush Blackmore Vale is also home to the little village of Henstridge, situated on the border of Somerset and Dorset. Henstridge itself has a village shop, pubs, restaurants and a café. It also offers lovely walks accompanied by fine views in the glorious countryside. The historic town of Sherborne is just a short drive away and was once home to the famous Sir Walter Raleigh. The National Trust operates a number of properties in the area such as Stourhead House and Gardens whilst the cathedral city of Salisbury, Stonehenge, Bath and The Dorset Heritage Coast are all in the near vicinity. This is a great base from which to explore Somerset and Dorset.

Guestbook for 2031 - Bluebell Cottage
Comfortable warm and near lots of areas of great interest, coastal and country. Very pleased with our second Sykes holiday this year, one more to go. Weather wasn't good so it was especially nice to have 'our' cottage to come back to each day. Home from home.
