HOLIDAY COTTAGES
There are six holiday cottages which have been converted by the current owners, from the traditional farm buildings to create six well laid out and well maintained cottages, providing an excellent source of income. Three of the cottages are single storey one bedroom cottages. Two of the cottages have two bedrooms. Stable Cottage, the largest two storey cottage has three bedrooms.

At the rear of the cottages is a grass seating area, beyond which is a pretty gently sloping paddock totalling approximately 7.40 acres within which are situated the solar panels. The paddock can be accessed separately from the road.

There is a right of access along the drive to the west for vehicles. Further details are available from the vendors agents.

SERVICES
All the cottages benefit from mains water and electricity, electric heating and shared private drainage.

Planning for the installation for Ground Mount 10Kw Photovoltaic System was granted in January 2015 and currently produces approximately £1,200 per annum.

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING (AML)
Estate Agents are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on all parties involved in the sale or purchase of a property. W&W use a specialist service called "Guild 365" to perform these checks. This is a service offered to Estate Agents who are members of the Guild of Property Professionals. These checks must be completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted (before we send out the Memorandum of Sale). There is a non-refundable fee of £25 (plus VAT) per person. Note: W&W receive a portion of this fee to cover our administration costs in processing these legal checks.

Dairy Farm is located in a highly desirable and sought after area, close to the beautiful and world famous Jurassic Coast, within the Dorset National Landscape (former AONB). Located on the edge of the pretty and tranquil village of Wootton Fitzpaine, Dairy Farm benefits from views across open countryside. The pretty seaside village of Charmouth lies only 2 miles to the south, with amenities for most every day needs, including convenience stores, pharmacy, post office, cafes, pubs, hairdressers and a baker. Charmouth Beech is a favorite with families, with lots of sand at low tide and safe swimming and is also world renowned for its fossils.

Boasting of beautiful beaches and a picturesque harbour, Lyme Regis lies just 4 miles away. Popular with families and those wishing to enjoy the breathtaking scenery, Lyme Regis provides a perfect setting and destination. The South West Coast Path allows you to enjoy miles of unspoilt Dorset Countryside, much of which is managed by the National Trust.

The larger towns of Bridport to the east and Axminster to the west offer more extensive amenities. There are good road links along the A35 and mainline stations at Axminster, Maiden Newton, Dorchester, and Crewkerne.
