Blandford Forum, South West England

Fontwood Old Stables
Fontwood Old Stables offers a peaceful base for two in Blandford Forum, Dorset, with no fuss and nothing to arrange beyond settling in and exploring the surrounding countryside.

History is within reach, with Shaftsbury Abbey Museum and Gold Hill Museum both 4.1 mi away, and the Royal Signals Museum a little further at 5.8 mi. It's a fitting spot for a quieter couple's break built around gentle days out.
