The property is situated right on the edge of Over Compton down a no through road. Over Compton itself has a church, with the neighbouring villages of Nether Compton and Trent, both having facilities which include public houses and churches. The nearby historic Abbey Town of Sherborne and the regional centre of Yeovil both lie within easy reach and provide an excellent variety of shopping, educational, recreational as well as cultural facilities. There are good communications in the area with a main line station from Sherborne or Yeovil Junction to London Waterloo. The A303 trunk road which links the South West to both London and the Home Counties (Via the M3/M25) is located to the North at Sparkford.
Sporting facilities in the area include golf at Sherborne or Yeovil, horse racing at Wincanton and water sports at either Sutton Bingham Reservoir or along the Dorset Coastline to the South. The area is also well served by a good range of independent schools at Sherborne Prep., Sherborne School for Girls and Boys, Leweston, Hazlegrove or Millfield.<br/><br/>
