Situation
Monkton Deverill is a small pretty rural village set in the Deverill Valley, part of the West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The River Deverill is a chalk stream that meanders through lovely rolling countryside before becoming the River Wylye at Crockerton. With miles of uninterrupted footpaths and bridleways, the area is ideal for walking and riding as well as other rural pursuits such as cycling and fishing. Racing is at Bath, Salisbury and Wincanton whilst sailing is available at Shearwater on the edge of the Longleat estate, famous for its safari park, Elizabethan stately home and Center Parcs. Other well-known visitor attractions close by include the National Trust Gardens at Stourhead and the World Heritage prehistoric site at Stonehenge.
There is a petrol station/shop and pub in Longbridge Deverill whilst Mere has good every day shopping. The nearby towns of Bruton, Frome, Gillingham and Warminster provide good local shopping and leisure amenities whilst the Roman city of Bath and medieval cathedral city of Salisbury offer more comprehensive regional shopping, hospital and world regarded cultural facilities. The A303 and A36 trunk roads are both within easy reach providing ready access to London (via the M3), the West Country and motorway network as well as to the South Coast. Mainline railway stations can be found at Tisbury & Gillingham (London Waterloo) and Westbury (London Paddington). There are several excellent private and state schools in the area including Sutton Veny CoE Primary School, Gillingham Secondary School, Bruton, Port Regis, Clayesmore, Sandroyd, Sherborne, Dauntseys, Warminster and St Mary’s Shaftesbury amongst several others.
