    Situation

    Dorchester town is rich in Roman heritage, with sites such as the Dorset County Museum and Maiden Castle offering glimpses into its past. It is also well known for its literary connections to Thomas Hardy and being set amongst picturesque rural countryside. Dorchester offers shopping and social facilities with cinemas, museums, leisure centre and weekly market. There are many excellent restaurants, public houses and riverside walks. Doctor’s, dentist’s surgeries and the Dorset County Hospital are close by. Brewery Square is set within the heart of Dorchester and is a vibrant area offering further shopping and eating facilities with a central open space hosting several events throughout the year. There are train links to London Waterloo, Bristol Temple Meads, Weymouth and other coastal towns and villages, and there are regular bus routes to adjoining towns. The stunning surrounding countryside, and majestic Jurassic Coast, just a short drive away, make it a perfect balance of town and rural living.
