The Tower is located on the River Frome, within 2 miles of Dorset's stunning Jurassic coast. Close to the picturesque market town of Wareham, and a short drive away from Poole, Bournemouth, Dorchester and Weymouth.
The famous tourist attractions of Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door, Corfe Castle and Studland are close by and easily accessible by car or bike. It is the ideal base for families with children with Monkey World, Steam Railway, ferry trips, fishing and miles of beaches within minutes. Just 2 hours from London Waterloo on the mainline rail service to Weymouth this is an ideal getaway weekend venue.
With beautiful views of the Purbeck Hills, and lovely walks along the River Frome this is a romantic and historic location deep in Hardy country. The church is the probable location for Tess of the Durbeville's marriage. The church was built in 1829 and retains many original features with much of the original stained glass retained, yet has the comfort and warmth of a recent conversion to the highest standards of modern luxury.
