Description of Ratty's RetreatRatty's Retreat is one of a small number of luxury holiday cottages imaginatively converted from a courtyard of seventeenth century stone barns.Just over a mile from the Jurassic coast and Ringstead Bay, but no more than 15 minutes from Weymouth or Dorchester, making it an ideal location to discover Dorset and its beautiful coastline. Ratty's Retreat - With its own porched doorway to the rear of our historic tithe barn, and large front windows overlooking open countryside to the south of the complex, Ratty's Retreat is a cottage that guests return to time and again. The centre-piece of the superb living area is a large Purbeck stone fireplace. The separate kitchen is convenient, well equipped and bright. The spacious master bedroom is light and atmospheric. Sleeping in the four poster bed is a pleasure. This bedroom also has a seating area (which can be converted into an additional bed for a child) overlooking the gardens and water feature. Twin brass headed beds feature in the second bedroom, which like the master room has a country cottage style reminiscent of a story book. There is a separate luxury bathroom with natural hand cut granite tiles. Décor and furnishings have been carefully selected to create a uniquely charismatic holiday environment.
