The Guardian: Fantasy house hunt 'Homes for sale close to British woodland – in pictures'

Stoke Abbott, Dorset

'Horsehill Cottage is the last undeveloped flax mill in Dorset. The Grade II-listed rustic house is down a gravelled drive, off a no through road, just outside the village. With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, it sits in about three hectares of private woodland and a tributary of the River Brit meanders through the gardens. Sit on the paved terrace overlooking the river and spot the resident kingfisher and the odd deer. There is a popular pub in the village, and the town of Beaminster is 1.5 miles away.'

Horshehill Cottage is on the market with Jackson-Stops Bridport & Dorchester with a guide price of offers in excess of £900,000.
