The beautiful surrounding countryside is some of the best in the south of England and is ideal for enjoying outdoor pursuits such as walking, cycling and riding. The village itself has a great community spirit and a village church. The Saxon hilltop town of Shaftesbury is around 3 miles north of Compton Abbas and has a wide range of amenities including a range of shops, a delicatessen, supermarkets, a health centre, local hospital, library and arts centre. A more comprehensive range of facilities may be found in the Cathedral City of Salisbury to the east, while nearby Tisbury has a mainline railway station (London Waterloo). The A303, approximately 15 minutes to the north, gives access to the South West and London, via the M3. One of the major attractions is the proximity to some of the best independent schools in Southern England including Bryanston, Clayesmore, Hanford, Knighton House, Leweston, Millfield, Milton Abbey, Port Regis, Sandroyd, Sherborne Boys, Sherborne Girls and St Mary’s Shaftesbury, to name few.
