Location:
Tarrant Keyneston (also spelt ‘Keynston’) is a popular village beside the River Tarrant, a tributary of the Stour, in the beautiful Tarrant Valley, between the market towns of Blandford Forum and Wimborne Minster. It benefits from a parish church, a village hall and The True Lovers Knot Inn, all of which host regular events, and is surrounded by idyllic countryside. There are primary/first schools in nearby Spetisbury, Witchampton and Pamphill, and both Blandford and Wimborne offer a range of state schools, shops and other amenities. The wider area is well served by independent schools including Dumpton, Castle Court, Canford and Bryanston. The coastal town of Poole, which has a mainline rail link to London Waterloo, is within 30 minutes’ drive.

From Wimborne, proceed towards Blandford on the B3082, passing Kingston Lacy House and driving through the avenue of beech trees beside Badbury Rings.

Proceed past the village hall on the left and continue around a bend with a tall beech hedge on the right. After a short, straight stretch, turn right into the cul-de-sac, and Heatheridge is the first house on the right.
