I always make time to pop in on my walks in this area as it is wonderfully calming and peaceful. I like to just sit and marvel at the talent of the architecture.

Sandford Orcas sits beneath Holway Hill, where the summit stands at 172m. The village itself is full of English history, with the Manor house built around 1550 AD and the church of Saint Nicholas thought to be from the 13th century. Surrounded by the Dorset countryside, it is a beautiful place to explore and to embrace its distinctive characteristics.

With Folke Manor House dating back to the 15th century and the Parish church to the 17th century. This pretty little village won't take long to explore, but it is well worth a visit.

Between Over Coombe and Higher Clatcombe there are beautiful views of Ambrose Hill and Patson Hill along the route. Picturesque scenery of the Dorset countryside is in abundance.

For many, known as the ‘Cathedral of Dorset’ Founded by St. Aldhelm in AD 705, Sherborne Abbey has developed from a Saxon cathedral to one of England’s most beautiful parish churches. The abbey is a Grade I listed building. It has several distinct architectural styles throughout and well worth a visit.

Beacon Hill is one of the highest viewpoints in Dorset. Its tree-covered summit reaches 84m, and there is a public footpath running roughly north to south over the top. Historically, it was one of a series of beacons used to warn of the advancing Spanish Armada. It is a beautiful spot to stop for a picnic or a rest, with amazing views.

Parrock Hill has a summit of 179m, with beautiful views of Cadbury Castle and the Dorset countryside. An amazing place to stop for a short break and take in the amazing surroundings.

Oborne is a beautiful little village just north of Sherborne. Quaint cottages and the remains of the 17th century Old St Cuthbert Church can be seen, as well as amazing views across the Dorset countryside.
