Location:
The bustling village of Market Lavington sits just below Salisbury Plain, around 300 hundred acres of chalk grassland which affords wonderful walking and riding opportunities. There is a church and pub in the well served village which has everything from a doctor's surgery to a library, hairdresser, post office, supermarket, top notch Indian takeaway and butcher. There is excellent schooling nearby for all ages in both the private and state sectors including Dauntseys, St Margaret's and St Mary's, Calne, Marlborough and St Francis. The comprehensive school in Lavington is very well regarded as is the primary in West Lavington. Communications are good, with both the M3 and M4 motorways easily accessed and mainline stations within reach at both Pewsey and Chippenham (London Paddington just over an hour) or Wesbury if heading west. Bath and Salisbury are around 20 miles away and the market towns of Devizes and Marlborough are close enough for everyday shopping, with weekly produce markets, supermarkets, boutiques, entertainment and plenty of restaurants and bars.
