More about Bugley

Dorset, England

Bugley is a quiet corner of Dorset where the locals know exactly which pub has the best pie and why the rain always seems to start on a Tuesday. With no big venues to shout about, the charm lies in the small community halls that pop up with local shows when you least expect them. It isn't about finding a crowd-pleaser or chasing the latest trend but rather stumbling upon a neighbour's bake sale or a village hall play that just happens to be on tonight. Near Here keeps track of those little moments so you don't have to drive all the way to Bournemouth for entertainment when right here in Dorset there is plenty of warmth to be found.
