The small village of Maiden Bradley in southwest Wiltshire, has several local points of interest all within easy ambling distance of the Bradley Hare.
There is an art gallery housed in a small chapel, a grand 12th century church, and a quaint wisteria-clad ‘Potting Shed’ for beauty treatments and holistic therapies.
Right next to the Bradley Hare, you’ll find a fresh milk station with a handy walkers’ map of the area. Opposite, stands a family-run, independent village grocer,
“The Bradley Pantry” – well-stocked with fresh produce and rich in local knowledge.
In the West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Maiden Bradley is located in one of the original clearings of the former Selwood Forest. The word ‘Bradley’ means a wide clearing of wood: Brad (broad) & ley (clearing).
Only a stone’s throw from the enchanting Great Bradley Wood and Little Bradley Wood, the village of Maiden Bradley is surrounded by the rolling landscapes and picturesque villages that Wiltshire is known for.
Maiden Bradley is set amidst historical monuments, cultural landmarks and picturesque towns, including Bruton, Frome and Bath. You can enjoy a historical walk that leads you to King Alfred’s Tower, explore a world-class landscaped garden at Stourhead, or soak up the creativity at Hauser and Wirth, all within 12km of The Bradley Hare.
The Bradley Hare is located in the ideal spot for those seeking an idyllic British retreat from which to explore this beautiful, largely undiscovered corner of the world.
