Cerne Abbas is located about 10 miles from the historic town of Sherborne with its famous abbey and 2 castles - one of which belonged to Sir Walter Raleigh. Numerous films have been shot in and around Sherborne including Goodbye Mr Chips and most recently Thomas Hardy's 'Far from the Madding Crowd'. Just 9 miles from Dorchester - the county town and famous for the author Thomas Hardy, who based many of his books around the area. The World Heritage Jurassic Coast is just 30 minutes drive away.

Outside of the property is the Wessex Ridgeway, with hundreds of miles of footpaths. It is excellent for walkers, cyclists, bird watchers and wild life enthusiasts.

Should you decide that you wish to dine out, there are numerous places locally that cater for all tastes and pockets - if you are lucky you could even be dining with some of the starts of the small and large screen who live close by!

There are numerous things to do and see, whether you wish to walk, see the sights, visit a museum or even try racing a kart!

There is a local shooting club where you could try your eye at clay pigeon shooting just 10 minutes drive away. If you fancy something a little different, why not have pop along and try shooting a few clays for yourself - all necessary equipment is provided.

Also only 10 minutes away is the Clay Pigeon Race Circuit - ideal for the budding Formula 1 driver, or those that wish they had been!

We live in the adjoining part of the bungalow, if there is anything that we can do to make your stay more enjoyable, please let us know and we will do all we can to accommodate you.

“The perfect country weekend away!”

Reviewed 11 Mar 2013

My girlfriends and I had a wonderful time at Mel and Ian's place in Cerne Abbas, Dorchester. The cottage had everything we needed, and they even baked us a cake on arrival! We went on walks, drove out to the Giant (he really is a sight to behold!) and Sherborne which was pretty, and had a cracking night at the Giant Inn where the locals were all so welcoming. We did some of own cooking which was nice as it was getting cooler, and shared some lovely wine looking over their array of birds; ducks, geese, chickens, you name it! It was a simple, honest, relaxing country weekend - thanks Mel and Ian!!
