The space
The Cartshed is situated independent of the owners property in the small hamlet of Stubhampton at the head of the Tarrant Valley. Guests can enjoy local produce from Home Farm farm shop in Tarrant Gunville or The Post Office in Iwerne Minster.
Supermarkets are available in nearby Shaftesbury and Blandford.
Great routes for walking and cycling from the door...or the Jurassic coast and New Forest are within easy reach.

Other things to note
Please note, the hot water in The Cartshed is heated by an electric immersion heater in a hot water tank. This tank will give a good shower temperature for a shower of approximately 10 minutes duration….after which one needs to allow some recovery time for the hot water tank to get back up to temperature….that said, since 2019 this has only been an issue with one guest.
It might be of interest to some guests to know that The Cartshed’s electricity is served from a supply that includes that generated by our own 10Kw solar PV array….so when conditions are favourable then the hot water for your shower might have been heated by the power of the sun.
