Location

Osmington is a sought after village on the east side of Weymouth and famed for the White Horse hill figure of King George III cut into the limestone. Just off of the World Heritage Jurassic coastline at Osmington Mills it is a village that still offers a community feel with a local village hall, church, farm shop and pub (due to reopen in 2026). It is dog walkers heaven with numerous country trails, bridle paths into the countryside or down to the coastline that takes you to Weymouth or towards Durdle Door and Lulworth. Weymouth Town Centre with its award winning beach and picturesque harbourside is a short drive away and on a bus route, as is the county town of Dorchester.
