Coombe House backs onto unspoilt countryside and is set back off a lane passing through the small village of Holwell, which has a parish church, village hall and nursery school. The village lies between the larger villages of Bishops Caundle and King's Stag, which both have a pub and garage and the former also has a village shop/post office and popular, highly rated primary school. The Abbey town of Sherborne is only about fifteen minutes' drive away for nearly all day to day needs, with a wide selection of shops and local businesses including Sainsbury's and Waitrose supermarkets. For wider requirements the larger towns of Yeovil and Dorchester are both within a reasonable driving distance. Local transport links are good with the A303 and A30 main arterial roads are both close at hand, Sherborne has a direct rail service to Waterloo taking about two and a quarter hours and Bournemouth International Airport and Exeter Airport are both about an hour's drive away with flights to UK and international destinations. The local area has a wide choice of schools from both state and independent sectors. The house is within the defined catchment area for the well-regarded Gryphon School in Sherborne for state secondary education and there are several popular independent schools within the wider local area such as Leweston, the Sherborne schools, Milton Abbey, Hanford and Clayesmore.
