Bobbins is located in a private position, tucked away from passing traffic, and within close walking distance to the village centre in the picturesque and charming village of Charlton Horethorne. The village has a green to its centre and an unusual number of amenities including a church, a primary school, an award winning shop, a country house pub, a visiting post office and a village hall. The village is conveniently placed just 5 miles to the north of the historic Abbey town of Sherborne. Both Sherborne and the local regional centre of Yeovil lie within comfortable motoring distance, providing an excellent range of cultural, recreational and shopping facilities. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound within the area with many walks to be had from the village itself. The region is also well known for its public and privately funded schooling. Communication links are good with the mainline station at Sherborne linking directly with London Waterloo, while road links along the A303 joined less than 5 miles away at the small Somerset town of Wincanton give swift access to London and the Home Counties along the M3, M25 route.

The property is approached by a gated tarmac drive providing parking for approximately two cars with a beautiful stone wall outlining the boundary. The garage is equipped with power, light and water with an electric up and over door. There are paved steps leading up to the front of the property with mature shrubs enhancing the privacy. The garden is set within two areas, surrounded by mature borders and laid with stone chippings for ease of maintenance.

    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
