The Old Barn is on an organic farm in the magical Kingcombe Valley amid 600 acres of the Dorset Wildlife Trust's Kingcombe Meadows which are world renowned for the variety of flora and fauna. The Wessex Ridgeway and the Jubilee Trail cross the farm and there are many long and short walks to try without the need of a car. The cottage is six miles from the sea and the Jurassic coastline. An excellent base for those wishing to explore Thomas Hardy country. It is also only half an hours drive to Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's River Cottage HQ; so an excellent base for anyone wishing to join in on any of activities there.
