Plaitford is a small historic village first attested in the Domesday Book and situated on the Hampshire/Wiltshire border approximately six miles from Romsey and 13 miles from Salisbury. Plaitford Common, owned by the National Trust, is just a few yards from the property and nearby is access onto Canada Common on the northern edge of the New Forest National Park. The neighbouring village of West Wellow offers a range of amenities including a convenience store with butcher, hardware store, primary school, two pubs and recreation ground, and the nearby A36 connects to the M27 for onward connections to Southampton and the West Country, and via the M3 for London and Winchester. Southampton International Airport is just 12 miles away providing a 70-minute connection to London Waterloo. The property falls into the catchment area for the popular and well-regarded Wellow and Mountbatten Schools.
