Pamphill Bluebell Woods Countryside

Pamphill Blue Bell woods are best seen late April. Have a cream tea to follow at the nearby Pamphill Dairy or discover Kingston Lacy House and Gardens.

The Abbot Street Copse in Pamphill is a wonderful place to visit in late April when the blue bells are out.

The carpet of colour and the drop of the trees give the copse a fairy like feel. Come and enjoy and wander through at your leisure.

Also in the area is Pamphil Diary which includes a local farm shop, cafe, butchery and animal supplies, see more at their website http://www.pamphilldairy.com.

It is also worth poping into Pamphill Church - St Stephen. Inside the church is deightfuly simple but an extreme amount of care and attention has been taken with the detail. The most striking feature is the quality of the woodwork crafted from local Oak grown on the Kingston Lacy Estate.

Directions

Pamphill is off the B3082 north of Wimborne. Turn left into Abbott Street (passing Pamphill Dairy on your right) take another left further up the hill into a tree lined avenue (to your right is St Stephen Church), park in the siding/car park here. Return to Abbott Street and walk up the hill, take the track to your left. Along teh track you will come to a style on your right which takes you a short distance across a field. This leads directly to the copse.
