Little Wickers
Description
Little Wickers is a gorgeous terraced thatched cottage which is situated in the heart of the charming traditional village of Corfe Castle in Dorset. Sleeping up to four people, and located just a stone's throw from the village square and the iconic castle itself. A very cosy cottage with excellent bedrooms and comfortable beds. The sitting room is perfect for relaxing on the comfy sofas, watching TV or reading a book. There is a well-equipped kitchen with quality appliances to prepare meals and snacks. Step outside to the garden straight through the French doors in the ground floor bedroom, or via the lounge, and enjoy an afternoon playing games, sunbathing or just having a picnic. The garden is beautiful and well stocked with plants and flowers, gardeners attending the property intermittently throughout the year for essential garden maintenance. Little Wickers is the ideal base to explore the Studland peninsula and Purbeck. It is a walker's delight with an abundance of walks right from the doorstep in every direction. The iconic medieval and National Trust owned Corfe Castle ruins and the steam railway are just a short walk away. There are regular events and activities for families and children to enjoy when exploring the castle and a grandstand view of the landscape around. A short drive away from the village is Studland with its three beaches, and protected heathland which is a sanctuary for wildlife including many rare species.
Just a few miles away is the popular resort of Swanage with its array of shops and an award winning golden sandy beach. Swanage boasts a variety of cuisines but do try a Dorset cream tea and other local produce, especially freshly caught fish or a tasty crab sandwich. If you are feeling more adventurous you could take a walk to the breathtaking Old Harry Rocks. This cosy and welcoming cottage in Corfe Castle is a wonderful base to explore Purbeck and all the delights around.

Lovely cottage.
Very nicely furnished. Garden is beautiful and peaceful and perfect for people & dogs to enjoy. Comfy beds, cosy living room. Had everything we needed apart from a corkscrew, kitchen roll and extra bin bags, all of which would have been useful, but otherwise perfect little cottage in a lovely location.
Lovely cottage, well equipped and comfortable.
Right in corfu castle beautiful place to stay. Enjoyed the private garden. The only downside for us being older was the parking. Having to walk to and from the car pack everytime you wanted to go any were. But that can't be helped if your staying in an older cottage. Bear in mind its a good 10 min walk. Enjoyed our stay would highly recommend. And added bonus arrived to a lovely welcome pack including milk in the fridge which after a long journey was very well received. Perfect stay.
We had a delightful week at the cottage, from the welcome of useful and kindly chosen items on the kitchen table and provision of a parking permit and throughout the house and garden.
It was relaxing, comfortable and easy to work and relax within its walls and tasteful decor, inside and out. We'd be happy to know of the paint colour in the lounge, as we are inclined to decorate our new home in the same shade!
