LOCATION
Chilmark is an exceptionally pretty village that lies within Wiltshire’s Nadder Valley. It is situated 3 miles south of the A303 and close to Tisbury, which provides excellent road and rail links to London and the West Country.

The village is best known for its eponymous stone, which is used in many local houses and out of which Salisbury Cathedral, which is twelve miles to the east, was built. The village benefits from being within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty that is one of only 14 places globally to hold ‘International Dark Sky Reserve’ status, which makes for a remarkable night sky. The picturesque surrounds offer fine walking, riding and cycling, and the village itself has a thriving church and a well-regarded primary school.
