Stourton Wiltshire Map

About Stourton

Stourton rests in a quiet corner of Wiltshire, its presence marked by a gentle diffusion of light across the landscape. It lies 3.6 km west-north-west of Mere (from Mere: bearing 298°T, OS grid ST 781 340), and is situated north of Zeals village. The ancient parish, now part of the Stourhead estate, unfolds with a grace that speaks of centuries of cultivation and careful stewardship. Here, the River Stour winds its way through verdant fields, a silver thread woven through the green tapestry of the countryside. The heart of Stourton is its magnificent landscaped garden, a masterpiece of eighteenth-century design, where classical temples and grottoes emerge from a woodland setting, reflecting in the still waters of the lake. The air itself seems to hold a certain clarity, a coolness that carries the faint scent of damp earth and ancient trees.
