Compton Dando is a small, rural civil parish in the unitary authority of Bath and North East Somerset in England, lying on the south bank of the River Chew in the scenic Chew Valley. The parish is surrounded by farmland and rolling hills and enjoys easy commuting links to both Bath and Bristol, making it a quiet residential spot with strong countryside character.
Historically the village core retains older stone buildings and a long-established local identity derived from its medieval manorial past; economically it remains largely agricultural with a sprinkling of small businesses, holiday lets and commuters. Socially the parish is known for its tight-knit community, local events and riverside walks, which together give it the feel of a classic West Country village rather than a dormitory suburb.
