Generally peaceful and quiet only broken by the occasional cow or tractor. Some faint road noise during the day... Show more

Proper little CL
Some slightly sloping pitches. Good recycling facilities. This is a busy working farm so there is farm noise and some white noise from the main road. Neither bothered us. CDP doesn’t leave much to the imagination. Very handy for Sherborne. TV reception OK, 3G OK... Show more
