Situation

Poundbury is an urban development of the County Town of Dorchester and is King Charles iii’s vision for the development of new communities in the 21st century. 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.
