Deerleap - Bed & Breakfast

The closest accommodation to Monkey World and the Tank Museum, Deerleap Bed and Breakfast is also ideal for exploring the Dorset Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, with the stunning beaches of Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door 10 minutes’ drive away. Wool mainline railway station is one mile away.

There is a wealth of places to visit within easy driving distance, whatever your tastes, from National Trust properties to sports facilities.

Deerleap is 5 miles from the South West Coast Path, (set in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), a practically unspoilt coastline, with unparalleled walks and beaches. For more gentle walkers we have the advantage of coast, river and woodland walks on the doorstep.

The towns of Weymouth, Dorchester, Blandford Forum, Wimborne Minster, Poole, Bournemouth and Swanage are all within 30 minutes drive, as is the beautiful Isle of Purbeck, with it’s sensational coast line, miles of sandy beaches at Studland, steam railway and historic Corfe Castle.

The local market town of Wareham, lying on the River Frome, is close by, and provides historic interest in addition to small local shops and restaurants.

Deerleap nestles in the countryside one mile from the village of Wool. It provides seclusion in a clearing of nearby woods. The garden is large, bordered on one side by a stream, across which you can often see Sika deer and ponies grazing. There are places to relax in the garden, when the weather is good, and abundant birdlife to enjoy in this unspoilt corner of south Dorset.

There is plenty of parking space, including trailers if required. Motorbikes can be accommodated under cover in the barn. A well behaved dog may also be accommodated by prior arrangement – please ask when enquiring about booking.

Double and twin rooms (with a third smaller bed) have en suite shower and lavatory; remote control TV and Wifi connection; coffee and tea making facilities and a hair dryer. A travel cot and high chair are available, if required.
