1 Bedroom Cottage in Pulham, Minterne Magna
The village of Minterne Magna is renowned for the grand Minterne House and Gardens, and this property, sitting within an idyllic walled garden, forms part of the Minterne Estate. Home to notable figures such as Sir Winston Churchill and Admiral Robert Digby, Minterne House is steeped in history, containing original Churchill tapestries and furniture alongside naval memorabilia. The gardens are home to an important collection of Himalayan rhododendrons and azaleas, alongside which snowdrops, daffodils, bluebells and hydrangeas add additional waves of colour. You can arrange a tour of the house by prior request and enjoy the gardens for free during your stay. Events are held on the estate throughout the year, so be sure to check what’s on. Not far from the estate, you can visit the famous hillside giant in the nearby village of Cerne Abbas (2 miles).
