ホルネストでののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

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.

A small, picturesque hamlet just off the Macmillan way. The 13th century church in the village was where Sir Walter Raleigh's second son was christened.

A beautiful little village with one of only two churches in England dedicated to St. Hippolytus. The church itself is thought to be from the 13th century, with most of its appealing architecture built in the 17th century.

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.

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.

Once the former home of Sir Walter Raleigh, Sherborne "New" Castle is an ideal place to visit while on a hike around Sherborne. The mansion dates back to the 16th century, while Sherborne Old Castle dates back to the 12th century. Open every day, the Castle and gardens also hold events throughout the year. https://www.sherbornecastle.com/

The gardens were opened as a public garden on 5 September 1906. There is a band stand in the middle of the gardens which is still used for concerts in the summer. Unfortunately dogs are not allowed in the gardens.

Sherborne School is a public school (English independent boarding school for boys) located beside Sherborne Abbey. The school has been in continuous operation on the same site for over 1,300 years. It was founded in 705 AD by St Aldhelm and, following the dissolution of the monasteries, re-founded in 1550 by King Edward VI, making it one of the oldest schools in the United Kingdom.
