Houndstone Somerset Map

About Houndstone

Houndstone breathes the quietude of Somerset fields, a place where the land exhales a gentle scent of damp earth and distant hedgerows. It lies 3.2 km west-north-west of Yeovil (from Yeovil: bearing 292°T, OS grid ST 526 170), and is situated south of Chilthorne Domer village. The houses of Houndstone, many built from the honey-coloured local stone, catch the soft afternoon light, their roofs a warm counterpoint to the deep green of the surrounding pastures. Here, the sky seems a little wider, its blue deepened by the vastness of the South West England landscape that cradles this small community. The air, often still and carrying the murmur of unseen birds, speaks of a life lived at a pace dictated by the seasons rather than the clock.
