The Local Area
The beautiful market town of Warminster is situated on the edge of the Cranborne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It’s a picturesque location that’s surrounded by chalk downland and stunning natural beauty. Due to its semi-rural location, it’s a popular retirement spot with walkers and ramblers who want to explore the beautiful countryside. It is also incredibly popular with history lovers as it contains many historic attractions. This includes Dents glove factory, which has made gloves for several royals, including a pair worn by Queen Elizabeth II for her coronation.
The town’s pride and joy remains its tranquil lake. It’s located in a park that also has a children’s paddling pool, a skate park, tennis courts and a putting green. The park also leads to Smallbrook Meadows Nature Reserve, which is run by Wiltshire Wildlife Trust.
