Litton Cheney is a peaceful village nestled in the Bride Valley. This is a tranquil yet convenient spot, with excellent road links. Heading south you will find the spectacular Jurassic Coastline, A UNESCO World Heritage Site, lined with dramatic cliffs, popular beaches and pretty villages. There are many destinations worth exploring locally, including Abbotsbury, home to subtropical gardens, children’s farm and a swannery, plus Lyme Regis with its characterful streets and historic houses. The village is equally well-placed for visits to the market town of Bridport, which has a good range of independent shops, or head to the county town of Dorchester with its two cinemas, bustling high street and museums. There are also lovely walking and cycling routes nearby.
