About
DownWood Holidays is a countryside retreat set on a 28-acre private estate just outside the Georgian market town of Blandford Forum, Dorset. Guests enjoy peaceful, self-catering stays with sweeping woodland, gardens and far-reaching views, while being within easy reach of Dorset highlights including the Jurassic Coast, Sandbanks, historic landmarks, markets and nature trails. The collection features a range of luxury holiday lets—from the impressive Manor House (ideal for large family gatherings, celebrations and weddings) to intimate hideaways for two. Many properties are dog-friendly, several include private hot tubs, and unique options such as a treehouse and converted stable add extra charm. Whether you’re planning a multi-generation getaway, a romantic break, or a beachside escape at Sandbanks, every stay blends comfort, privacy and style.
