Drive through the tall, solid oak, security gates, cruise down the drive to the double front doors at Ranmoor and you have arrived at a very special place. The spacious hallway welcomes you to a glamorous house with a touch of Hollywood style and there is also an OUTDOOR HEATED SWIMMING POOL set in a delightful terrace, with panoramic views across the countryside. A double staircase with a galleried landing leads to six comfortable bedrooms, each with a television and a central balcony, which overlooks the front garden. The master bedroom is large enough to include a three-piece suite and has its own balcony above the terrace and swimming pool, there are two further bedrooms on the ground floor.

The stunning living room has lovely wooden floors with two distinct sitting areas divided by three steps; there is an open fire, a wall mounted 50inch plasma television and patio doors to the terrace. The elegant dining room will easily accommodate up to sixteen guests. In the magnificent kitchen, with double oven and large hob, aspiring chefs will want to produce that special menu whilst friends and family pour cold drinks from the American style fridge/freezer or watch the snooker match in progress in the adjoining area.

The conservatory, dining room and lounge all open onto an extensive paved terrace, giving easy access to the heated outdoor pool. Table and chairs are provided so that you can enjoy a drink on the terrace; there are also sun loungers and a swing seat. On the large lawn behind the terrace there is a safely netted, trampoline. Within the grounds there is a small cottage situated a good distance from the main house, which is occasionally used by the owners of the property.

Walkers will enjoy a visit to Cerne Abbas to see the famous giant carved into the hillside, or a stroll along the South West Coast Path around the horseshoe bay at Lulworth. Lulworth Castle and Park has a children's adventure play area, pitch and putt, archery and jousting shows. All the family will enjoy a day at Monkey World, near Wareham, or a trip to the thrills and spills of Splashdown Water Park at Poole. There are miles of sandy beaches in Bournemouth Bay and at the Bournemouth Aquarium you can try the interactive dive cage. In Thornicombe is Gorcombe Farm where events and activities for the adventurous include paintball, shooting, archery, fishing, quad bikes and vehicle experience.
