Castle Combe
The Old Dairy is an exclusive development of
six stylish homes on the edge of the charming
village of Castle Combe. Situated at the
southern fringes of the Cotswolds in North
Wiltshire, this rural idyll is situated in an area
of outstanding natural beauty that boasts a
rich and vibrant history.
A Roman road, the Fosse Way, once ran through Castle Combe and the area had a Saxon settlement that is mentioned in the Domesday book. By the 15th century Castle Combe had become an important centre for the wool industry. In more recent times this stunning setting has attracted the attention of Hollywood film makers.

Castle Combe is a conservation area and a sanctuary to wildlife making it the perfect place to enjoy the beauty of nature at its very best. Around the village itself there are many excellent country walks offering a chance to enjoy some of the most wonderful scenery in the South of England. Strict rules apply to preserve the beauty and character of Castle Combe for later generations to admire. With this in mind Hills architects have created six elegant homes that fit in perfectly with the existing traditional Cotswold style.

The Old Dairy is on the hill just above the main
village of Castle Combe which nestles peacefully in
a valley. There are good links to junctions 17 and 18
of the M4. Less than 12 miles away is the historic
Georgian city of Bath, and Westonbirt Arboretum -
one of the most spectacular tree gardens in the world
- is only 10 miles away.
Nearby there are many sites
of historical interest such as Avebury, Stonehenge,
the Wiltshire White Horses and the National Trust
village of Lacock.
