Eweleaze Farm is a small organic farm on the south Dorset coast. It is situated in a secluded valley, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and includes half mile of private beach and cliffs, which now forms part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. A herd of Aberdeen Angus beef cattle, a mixed flock of sheep and a free range laying flock run at Eweleaze Farm.
The Cartshed is located on a very quiet no through road, and is ideally suited for walks to the white horse, and along the coast path towards Lulworth (E) and Weymouth (W). Clients have the added benefit of private parking at Eweleaze Farm for access to the secluded beach.
Named 'The Cartshed', it was recently converted from an old barn. It retains a sense of history both inside and out, with its stone walls and flagstone floors. There is accommodation for six people plus a cot.
Please note that during 2011, the cottage is only available to rent from 14th May to 30th Sept inclusive and is closed outside this period.
