Reviews & Comments for Tyneham Village

i visited this sad but lovely village this month (june 08). the mind
workes in strange ways,sad because of those lovely people being
driven out of thier homes,and never being allowed to return.
the peace and calm i found there was outstanding,the school
brought back so many memories of my young days in school
in wales. long may tyneham village remain so beautiful and peaceful.

What a sad little place this is - and yet a great tribute to those who lived there and left willingly to further the war, to ensure the freedom of us all. The village is maintained well and the schoolhouse and church are fascinating, and all in a beautiful setting. Well worth a visit.

A lovely peaceful place - must have been wonderful when it was a proper village community. So sad to think that our own army could have treated those people so badly with so little compensation.

A beautiful peaceful place, one can only imagine what it was like pre war, no electricity, traffic or noise! Pity there aren't more photos, also would love to see exactly on a map where Tyneham House is and photo of the ruins and wonder why we are not allowed to see it

Felt so sad to think of those lovely villagers being evicted by the British goverment of the day with very little compensation. Also angry that so much damage had been done by our own British Army rather than the enemy of the day! It was like stepping back in time in an eerie kind of way. Thought about the village and the people who once lived there for the rest of the day. An absolute must on any Dorset visitors' lists. They won't forget it in a hurry.
