Everdene

Everdene is a new cottage located in the valley of the River Wey in the charming village of Upwey. Everdene is one of five new cottages in the North Manor Meadow development grouped around a shingled courtyard and are perfect for families or groups of friends. Upwey is a surprising village, feeling very rural, utterly charming but only 3.5 miles from Weymouth and its golden, sandy beach. Visit the Upwey Wishing well for some great food, all set in wonderful gardens with the river running through it. While there visit the gallery next door stock full of talented local artists and sculptors. The village itself is very picturesque with a good variety of modern and vintage buildings and there is even a garden centre to enjoy with a great range of plants, again in a lovely setting.

The accommodation at Everdene comprises of an open plan living area with well equipped kitchen with electric oven with ceramic hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer and dishwasher. The sitting area has a smart TV with Freeview and WiFi is available throughout. The dining area has table and chairs for six and great views looking out over the courtyard and the patio area. There are three bedrooms, a double with en-suite bath with shower over, basin and toilet and two king-size doubles that can also be arranged as twins if that would better suit your requirements. The bathroom has a bath with shower over, toilet and basin. A travel cot and high chair can be provided upon request.

Outside there is a private patio area complete with table and chairs as well as a shared hillside garden with picnic benches. There is off road parking available for two cars. Your fuel, power, bed linen and towels are all included in the price.

Upwey

Formerly a village in its own right, Upwey is now a suburb of Weymouth, approximately 4 miles north of the town centre. The village has several notable buldings including a 13th century church and a Manor house.

To the north of the village lie the chalk ridge of the South Dorset Downs. At the foot of these lies the River Wey which then flows through the village. The source, known as the Upwey Wishing Well has been a tourist attraction from Victorian times, and remains so to this day with a tea room on the site and beautiful water gardens.

Upwey is very picturesque with the Old Mill on the banks of the river and with the beautiful countryside surrounding the village you could easily forget that Weymouth is just 4 miles away. There is no need to travel to Weymouth for a bite to eat either as The Old Ship Inn and The Riverhouse Inn do an admiral job.
