About Knole

Knole, a quiet hamlet, breathes the gentle air of Somerset. It lies 3.5 km south of Somerton (from Somerton: bearing 186°T, OS grid ST 483 250), and is situated east-south-east of Long Sutton village. The fields surrounding Knole often lie fallow under a sky that can shift from the pale gold of dawn to the bruised violet of dusk, a painterly canvas for the scattered farmsteads. Ancient hedgerows, thick with hawthorn and dog rose, trace the boundaries of pastures where sheep graze, their wool catching the diffused light. The lanes that connect Knole to its neighbours are seldom busy, their tarmac worn smooth by the passage of agricultural machinery and the occasional car, each journey feeling like a quiet communion with the land. There is a sense of enduring presence here, of lives lived in harmony with the turning seasons, a subtle melody played out in the rustle of leaves and the distant bleating of livestock.
