The area around Wareham.
Wareham is an ancient town enclosed by Saxon earth walls, set between two rivers with a quay that is busy with visitors in summer. It is the gateway to the Isle of Purbeck, and nearby Bovington and its military camp add service families to the customer base. Housing ranges from old town cottages to post-war estates in Sandford. A business should cover Wool, Stoborough and the surrounding villages, and hospitality can make the most of passing visitors.
Inside Dorset, the closest places are Swanage (9 miles), Wimborne Minster (10 miles), Blandford Forum (12 miles) and Ferndown (12 miles). Just over the council boundary, Poole (6 miles) is close by. Further out, Bournemouth (11 miles) and Christchurch (15 miles) are within commuting distance. A list of the places you really serve is more useful to a customer than “and surrounding areas”.
Within Wareham itself, we build for businesses in Stoborough, Sandford, Northport, Wool, Bere Regis and Ridge.
Wareham (postcode area BH) sits about 62 miles east of Exeter.
