You can explore the plain as part of a tour which showcases wildlife, heritage and off-roading. You’ll also be able to visit the curious abandoned village of Imber at certain times of the year. With all of this, plus endless open space on your doorstep, you’ll be able to easily get out and enjoy nature from your new Persimmon home.

Local landmarks
