Outside

Set in an idyllic and unspoilt corner of Dorset, 3 Bank Gate Cottages offers a lifestyle deeply connected to nature. Just moments from the renowned Arne Nature Reserve, the cottage is surrounded by open heathland, scenic walking and cycling trails, and a rich abundance of wildlife—making it a true haven for outdoor enthusiasts.

To the rear, the private garden is a peaceful sanctuary. A lawned area is framed by mature shrubs and trees, while a generous patio provides the perfect spot for al fresco dining or simply soaking in the serenity, with birdsong and rustling leaves setting the tone.

Practicality is also well considered, with off-road parking and a large brick-built car port providing sheltered space for vehicles or additional storage. And while the setting feels delightfully remote, the historic market town of Wareham is just a short drive away, offering the best of both seclusion and convenience.

Location
