Ideal for a family or group to head away from the hustle and bustle of daily life to enjoy a peaceful escape within one of Dorset s prettiest locations. Nestled between the county town of Dorchester and the market town of Sherborne, there are many local attractions to explore from one of Dorset s biggest markets in Dorchester to a visit to the historical Sherborne Abbey. In addition there is a footpath from the doorstep leading across fields (on occasion there may be livestock) which leads to the next village and pub. Through the impressive front door of the chapel you re welcomed into this gloriously historic building.
