Living and eating

The first of the gorgeous living spaces at The Greenhouse is an aesthetic dream, exquisitely open plan with statement lighting and a sumptuous palette of soft tones promising a luxurious space to exist together. Large sliding doors oversee waterside vistas, whilst an enchanting wood burning stove rests in the centre for those wintry evenings spent cosying up indoors. Lounge in style on the forest green linen Loaf sofa, complete with a footstool. You'll also find a set of rattan chairs with a coordinating table, a mid-century sideboard by Swoon, and a pair of cane occasional armchairs - a heavenly spot to reside with a glass in hand whilst the Sonos player whispers your favourite musical artists.

Dividing the main living area from the kitchen, the farmhouse style dining table for ten is the perfect place to settle for casual lunches and opulent evening meals.

At the opposite end of the space rests the sleek kitchen in olive green tones, featuring an island breakfast bar with steel grey Tolix bar stools. Everything you'll require for whipping up delectable delights can be found here, including a double oven, a dishwasher, a cafetiere, and a fridge freezer with an ice dispenser.

Uncover the cosy cinema room on the ground floor, beautifully styled with a sumptuous green velvet corner sofa, a taupe-toned armchair, jute footstools, rattan storage boxes with DVD's for all ages, and chic marble and rattan side-tables to rest your popcorn when watching films on the ultra-TV.

On the top floor, you'll find an additional snug with a luxe, green tweed sofa and Smart TV. Here you'll find endless toys, games, books and even a doll's house, ensuring the dreamiest playroom for little ones.

Overlooking the water, The Greenhouse has an amazing yoga room, complete with mirrors, exercise mats, and an occasional chair with table.

You'll also find a washing machine and tumble dryer in the ample utility room with racks and rails for drying.


Sleeping and bathing

Discover five dreamy bedrooms at The Greenhouse, each promising a soothing escape from reality.

The master bedroom lies on the first floor, where heavenly slumbers await amidst pretty floral textiles and stylish natural accessories. You'll find a sumptuous Loaf super king-sized bed with a linen forest green headboard, a bohemian rattan double wardrobe, a cream boucle occasional chair, a walnut chest of drawers, and two bedside tables also in a dark walnut wood. Open the sliding double doors to savour peaceful country vistas on the balcony - a divine spot for your early morning latte.

Just next door, you'll find the en suite in contemporary black and white tones, complete with an opulent freestanding bathtub and spacious walk-in shower.

With an equally stunning balcony space, the second bedroom continues the soft, neutral hues enjoyed throughout The Greenhouse. You'll find a rattan king-sized bed, two bedside tables, a wardrobe, and a vintage black dressing table with a stool.

The third twin bedroom with two single beds is perfectly designed for the little ones, dressed in pretty polka dots and mustard yellow accessories. You'll also find a double chest of drawers and two wooden bedside tables.

A family bathroom with quirky monochrome tiling and gold accents can also be found on the first floor, with a freestanding bathtub and twin sinks.

On the top floor, you'll find bright and airy bedroom four with a vaulted ceiling and Velux window. Effortlessly serene with a gorgeous Persian rug and minimalist yet luxury décor, this darling boudoir has a king-sized bed, two bedside tables, a bench, black metal chest of drawers, dressing table with a matching rattan chair, and hanging hooks for storing your belongings.

The final twin bedroom with green interior details resides next door, with charming abstract prints complementing a super-soft neutral rug. Two single beds with black iron frames await, along with a dressing table, chair, sheepskin beanbag and two contemporary chests of drawers.

Next door lies a spacious shower room with dove-grey marbled honeycomb tiling, shelving and a large shower.

All beds are topped with cloud-soft Loaf mattresses and dressed in white linens of the highest quality.


Outside space

With dreamy lakeside vistas, the garden space is a wonderful spot to reside. A Neptune dining table for ten is a delight when dining alfresco at golden hour, whilst two large sofas reside for post-dinner tipples served from the outdoor drinks trolley. Additionally, there are two deckchairs for unwinding on sun-kissed afternoons, as well as an outdoor shower for hot showers. Across the water awaits another jetty for when you wish to enjoy blissful countryside scenery from the other side.

In the Area

Nestled on the border of the historic market town of Dorchester, The Greenhouse is wonderfully positioned for uncovering the endless chocolate-box villages laced throughout Dorset's idyllic countryside such as Abbotsbury, a pretty civil parish settled in Dorset's AONB. In the eclectic town of Dorchester, the birthplace of poet Thomas Hardy, you'll find a vast range of independent restaurants including The Square Bistro, whilst New Street Bakery promises sugar-topped pastries and artisan bread. Close by, you'll find the modern village of Poundbury, brimming with boutique stores, quirky coffee shops, and delicious eateries such as The Poet Laureate, a gorgeously red-bricked pub with a welcoming fireplace, and The Duchess of Cornwall Inn, where you can savour their delectable menu as you enjoy beautiful period artwork and classic country interiors.

We know how gorgeous our retreats are, but don’t just take our word for it – here’s what previous guests say about The Greenhouse:

We were a group of five and had a wonderful stay at the Greenhouse. Although the accommodation can fit ten, two of the rooms are singles so three couples plus children/young adults is probably the best fit. Regardless, the home was clean, spacious and befitting of the description, with a beautiful outdoor space that caught the sun as it set. Linda - the housekeeper - was helpful and responsive throughout and the facilities on the estate are great, including the gym and outdoor pool. Would certainly go back!

See above and also add Our family’s stay at The Greenhouse was a perfect way to relax, unwind and have fun. The facilities at the house were excellent including wonderful toys and games. My grandson was in heaven with all of his favourite authors in his bedroom. The house is situated in a perfect spot, un-overlooked with the lake on the doorstep which provided hours of fun for all the family. We would highly recommend The Greenhouse and Silverlakes for a vacation for all the family.

This is a excellent retreat near to the coastline and provides all the amenitie.House is clean and tidy. Hamper provided with coffee and tea, milk in the fridge.Lots of information provided on where to go and what to do. Excellent break.

A wonderfully bright and spacious property - perfect for a large family holiday. The facilities at Silverlake were great, the estate is very quiet and peaceful with lots of wonderful greenspace. Loads for kids to do - paddle boarding on the lakes, swimming and tennis. We'd definitely book again.
