Welcome to Tunworth

Tunworth is a small village located in the county of Hampshire, England. It is situated approximately 6 miles east of Basingstoke and 50 miles southwest of London. The village is known for its picturesque countryside, historic buildings, and charming community. Tunworth is surrounded by rolling hills, lush green fields, and dense woodlands, making it an ideal destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.

One of the most notable landmarks in Tunworth is the 12th-century St. Mary's Church. This beautiful church features a Norman doorway, a 13th-century chancel, and a 15th-century tower. The church is surrounded by a peaceful churchyard, which is the final resting place of many of the village's residents. Another historic building in Tunworth is the Manor House, which dates back to the 16th century. The Manor House is a Grade II listed building and is currently used as a private residence.

Tunworth is also famous for its award-winning cheese, Tunworth Cheese. This soft, creamy cheese is made from locally sourced milk and has a rich, buttery flavor. Tunworth Cheese has won numerous awards, including the Supreme Champion at the British Cheese Awards in 2006 and 2013. The cheese is produced by Hampshire Cheeses, a family-run business located in the heart of Tunworth. Visitors can take a tour of the cheese-making facilities and sample some of the delicious cheeses produced on-site.
