Cleverly converted from an ancient cart shed/log barn and mid-century milking parlour, Hoods provides bright, contemporary, light filled accommodation with an open-plan living/dining/kitchen area, utility room, cloakroom, family bathroom and two bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room. With wonderful far reaching views across the Marshwood Vale including local landmark Colmer’s Hill, you can experience some of the best uninterrupted views of Dorset. Hoods is a place to gather, whether you are seeking a bolthole to gather your thoughts whilst you relax and recharge, or as a place to gather with friends and cook and share long lazy meals and chats around the table or gazing across the landscape. Sitting within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at Kingsland Farm, there is plenty of wildlife to experience and enjoy when relaxing on the large decked terrace, be it the tawny owls, pheasants, roe deer, badgers or numerous other local species. Additional accommodation can be booked (subject to availability) at neighbouring Loaf.

Upon booking guests are given the choice of a welcome hamper or voucher for use at the local farm shop. Please note that whilst the communal areas are all one level, there are steps to each of the bedrooms with hand rails. Hoods is on a working farm. We have flocks of hens and bantams plus cockerels. They do roam free range hence us asking you to keep your dog on a lead going to and from the car. There are facilities for washing your dog in a barn near the parking area - there is a dedicated dog bath with hose and towels are supplied.
Information correct at the time of writing.Venture out to the pretty bustling market town of Bridport where on Wednesdays and Saturdays the two main roads are packed with antique, flower and food stalls. Bridport is also the gateway to the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site and well worth exploring. Furleigh Estates is only a ten minute walk from Hoods where great tours of the vineyard are on offer. Towards the nearby village of Symondsbury you will find walks around the estate ending up at the top of Colmers Hill, a famous landmark. On your way back, pop into the Symondsbury Kitchen cafe for refreshments. The nearby town of Beaminster offering local shops, cafes and pubs is approximately six miles away. A visit to West Bay is a must - after crabbing off the harbour, grab fish and chips from one of the many kiosks and head to the beach for a picnic. All year round dog walking at Cogden, a National Trust beach, is the perfect place to clear the cobwebs.

As all restrictions have been lifted across the United Kingdom, you are no longer legally required to self-isolate upon a positive Covid-19 result. You won’t be asked to take daily tests or isolate following contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. This means, if you would like to modify or cancel your booking due to Covid-19, our normal terms and conditions now apply.
If the restrictions are reintroduced and you are forced to cancel your holiday due to legal restrictions, please be rest assured that we will help you to move your booking within the same property, offer a voucher to be used within the same property within a year or cancel your booking in this instance and we will refund you the price you paid in full.
If you are concerned about the potential impact of Covid-19 on your holiday plans, outside of legal restrictions, we strongly advise you to seek out travel insurance which covers you in these and other eventualities.
