Location
Lower Townsend Farm is in an enviable edge of village position in what is undeniably one of Dorset’s loveliest villages.
Powerstock is just five miles from the vibrant Georgian market town of Bridport, but does feel delightfully rural, being surrounded by glorious countryside that has changed little for centuries and falling within a formally designated National Landscape owing to its beauty and character.
Within the village are many attractive period stone cottages and houses, together with the historic church of St Mary the Virgin and the renowned Three Horse Shoes public house.
On a hill at the edge of the village are the Motte and Bailey earthworks of an old Norman castle.
Two miles to the south-east is the great Iron Age Hill fort of Eggardon from where there are breath taking views over to the sea.
Bridport has a twice weekly market and an excellent range of facilities including many independent shops, coffee houses and supermarkets including Waitrose, Morrisons and Co-op.
A short drive away is Burton Bradstock on the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage site.
The county town of Dorchester has a mainline railway station to London Waterloo.
There is State schooling at Powerstock Primary school and Sir John Colfox, Bridport. Private schools include Bryanston, Canford, Milton Abbey, Clayesmore, Leweston, Sherborne and Sherborne School for Girls. Prep schools include Port Regis, Sandroyd, Hanford, Bryanston Prep and Clayesmore Prep.
