Neighbourhood information

The charming rural community of Beaminster is located in an area of outstanding natural beauty, tucked beneath the gently undulating downland of West Dorset. The Conservation Area, which is located around the square, is home to approximately 200 Grade II listed buildings, many of which are made of mellow hamstone. In addition to having a good assortment of stores, hotels, and restaurants, this vibrant rural community also organises a well-known music and arts festival every summer. There is a vast network of pathways in the area, and one of them leads to the village of Netherbury, which was the setting for the first River Cottage TV show. Lyme Regis, Dorchester, and Weymouth are all within an easy drive, as well as the bustling market town of Bridport and West Bay, which served as the setting for the television series Broadchurch, on Dorset's breathtaking Jurassic Coast. A quaint Dorset small village located in a gorgeous rural area.
