Show more "With beautiful views of the church spire and towards the Blackmore Vale, Home Farm is exactly as the name suggests and houses farm buildings that have been converted into spacious properties, each with a rich sense of character. Further cottages built in the grounds complement the architectural style of the older buildings, and all have conservatories and balconies. There are several acres of mature, landscaped gardens to enjoy.It is a short walk to the shops of Iwerne Minster. There is a post office and general store, a pub and hotel and the village shop and cafe also bakes their own bread daily. With its winding lanes, the stream that runs through the village, the old pump, the popular cricket club and the parish church, the village has a quaint charm. Located near Cranborne Chase, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it has its own river, the Iwerne, and St Mary’s has been rated one of England’s 1000 best churches.
The lively market town of Blandford Forum is just seven miles down the road, and the seaside towns of Weymouth, Bournemouth and Poole are all within an hour’s drive." Show less
