Host review score

Church Farm is a beautiful farmhouse on a working dairy farm in the village of East Stour. It stands on the side of the A30 with 360 acres of surrounding fields. You can wander through the lovely countryside or walk to the local pub. We have a variety of different animals as well as lots of diary cows. Horses/ponies/cats/dogs and of course our free range chickens, the eggs of which are used for breakfasts. There is also a lovely walled garden available to sit in the summer months.

East Stour is very close to the beautiful hilltop town of Shaftesbury made famous by the Hovis advert. We are easily accessible to many lovely places all very close by. Including Sherborne, Sherborne Castle, Stourhead and The Larmer Tree to name a few.
