Lovely picturesque village with many walks in the area and very close to attractions such as Longleat, Stonehenge and only an hour and a half down to the coast - including the Purbecks and also to the New Forest.

A very cosy, warm cottage in a peaceful village. It was quite central in order to get to Dorset coast, New Forest and South Wiltshire.
