The hamlet of Lillington boasts beautiful countryside and is only 2.5 miles from the town of Sherborne, which draws many visitors for good reason. There are 12th century castle ruins as well as the new castle, built in the 16th century. The honey coloured streets feature a historic abbey as well as numerous shops, pubs, cafes, and artisan boutiques. Those wishing to walk will find many routes weaving through this picturesque landscape or you can jump in the car and visit Haynes Motor Museum (10 miles), Fleet Air Arm Museum (9 miles), or Glastonbury (19 miles). The small, friendly village of Cerne Abbas, home of the Cerne Abbas Giant hillside chalk figure is within a short drive. The village itself has plenty to offer, including three welcoming pubs, a traditional Dorset tearoom and a shop/Post Office. Additional places of interest include Montacute House, Tintinhull House and Lytes Cary, which are in the care of the National Trust and all within 11 miles. The seaside towns of Weymouth and Bridport are located within a 25 mile radius of the property.
