Smith tip
Fool people you’re Dorset-born-and-bred, with these local locutions:
‘Where’s to?’ = ‘Where is it?’‘Aggy’ = to gather eggs.
‘Ballyrag’ = to scold.

- Style
- Dripping-with-luxury barn conversion
- Setting
- Dorset farmland dreamscape
Can be rented with Burggraaf (sleeps 12), which has its own indoor swimming pool. Deep in the heart of the Dorset countryside, on West Axnoller Farm, lies the up-to-the-second stylish barn conversion Voltaire. Sleeping 12 in six en-suite bedrooms, this property’s elegance is so distracting that it causes you to breathe in sharply upon arrival – and forget to exhale. The six double bedrooms, and open-plan living/dining room and kitchen, exude contemporary style, but with super-sumptuous solid comfort. Within the barn, a spa awaits, with an indoor swimming pool, sauna, steam room, gym and two professional treatment rooms. Sociable, yet tucked away in the middle of the countryside, Voltaire is ideal for fabulous house parties, birthday celebrations, anniversaries, and stylish stag and hen breaks. This is pure secluded splendour within a patchwork-quilt Dorset setting.
