The village of Sutton Benger. A small community in the Vale of Dauntsey. A pin in the map where the North Wiltshire countryside and rolling Cotswolds are bisected by the M4. And a location that opens up a world of opportunities...

Sutton Benger wants for little. The local, The Wellesley Arms, provides good beer and good food with a warm welcome and glowing reviews. While the village restaurant, La Flambé, has long built its excellent name on its sophisticated French menu in an unhurried atmosphere.

At the heart of the village, the Grade II listed All Saints Church provides an insight into local history, dating back to the 12th Century. Just over the way, a quick stroll down Bell Lane, Sutton Benger School provides a primary education to 140 children during term time.

For more day-to-day activities, a village hall and doctor's surgery are at hand. Amenities that ensure the village remains a lively, supportive community that continues to grow

So much lies just beyond Sutton Benger.

Westonbirt, the National Arboretum, is an enriching year-round experience. Get wonderfully lost in its towering maze of native and exotic trees as you connect with nature and admire the seasonal shifts in colour.

Not far from this leafy escape is Malmesbury, a historic market town with a thriving artisan scene. As you nip in and out of the high street's independent shops and cafes, you'll notice the 12th Century Malmesbury Abbey and the Abbey House Gardens. Straddling the River Avon, these grounds provide a shock of colour as thousands of flowers bloom.

The area's cultural diversity is best encapsulated by the annual womad festival. Held in Charlton Park at the height of summer, the event celebrates music, food and arts from around the world, providing attendees with a truly enlightening experience.

Your nearest town is Chippenham. This lively market town provides all the everyday amenities you can think of, with a range of supermarkets, doctors' surgeries, schools and a mainline train station that serves London in just over an hour.
