Location
Cerne Abbas is one of Dorset’s most picturesque and desirable villages, famed for the iconic chalk figure of the Cerne Giant etched into the surrounding hillside. Originally a Benedictine settlement, the village has grown into a thriving and well served rural community while retaining its historic charm. Ideally located between Dorchester and Sherborne, it offers an excellent selection of everyday amenities. These include a well-regarded first school, a welcoming village shop and delicatessen supplying local produce and incorporating the post office, a respected doctors’ surgery with pharmacy, a cricket ground, and three popular pub restaurants providing relaxed dining throughout the week. The county town of Dorchester lies approximately eight miles to the south, while the historic abbey town of Sherborne is around twelve miles to the north, both offering a wider range of shopping, leisure and transport connections.
