Description A Cottage by the Sea: Dorset

If you love history, this former transmitter bunker serving RAF Ringstead during the Second World War will really appeal. Now a Grade-II listed home, it has stunning views over the sea from both the south-facing terrace and the living space. With its original concrete walls, there’s a modern loft vibe here and there are creature comforts such as underfloor heating and a log burner. Located on the owner's dairy farm in the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Ringstead Bay, you’ll be just two fields away from the sea.

Home truths:
*At full capacity, it may be a squeeze to get everyone seated on the sofa.
*The second bedroom has bunk beds, so is more suited to kids.
*There's no phone coverage indoors.
*The washing machine is located in the plant room.
*There are steps in the fenced garden.
*Two well-behaved dogs are allowed here.
