It is designed to be a sustainable development where it is possible to meet a higher proportion of daily needs on foot, rather than relying upon a car. Within walking distance to the property there are a plethora of amenities including The Duchess of Cornwall Hotel and Restaurant and an ever-growing range of bistros, coffee shops, beauty salons, shops, hairdressers, dentists, medical centre, garden centre and the highly regarded Damers First School. The Great Field is a short walk away and offers a wonderful open space and play area. In the Queen Mother Square there is a A Monart luxury spa within the Royal Pavilion, a Waitrose, Brace of Butchers and the Dorset Wine Co, while the Dorset County Hospital is also nearby.
