Buckland Newton is at the head of the Piddle Valley in West Dorset, and is approximately 10 miles north of the Roman town of Dorchester and 9 miles south of the market town of Sherborne. It lies almost hidden in a fold of hills on the southern edge of the Blackmore Vale. The surrounding countryside is very rural with hills all around. There is interesting wildlife to see including buzzards, woodpeckers, red kites, egret, heron, pheasants, badgers and foxes. The pub in the village called the Gaggle of Geese holds Goose Auctions in May and September which is quite an event and proceeds go to local charities. The shop in the village is within walking distance of the Stables and holds a supply of essential items. The Church is largely 15th Century but has a 13th Century, early English, chancel that was overlooked by the heavy handed Victorians!

There are many unspoilt beaches within easy reach along the south coast, from Studlands golden sands, Lulworth Cove, Weymouth, Chesil Beach, Abbotsbury Swannery and the sub-tropical gardens, Burton Bradstock, West Bay, Golden Cap near Seatown and Lyme Regis for fossils and a dinosaur tour. The whole part of the Jurassic south coast has recently been selected for World Heritage Site Status.
