The Old Rectory

Dorchester, Dorset

Steep paths lead to a beguiling four acres of natural woodland with many springs, streams, and two pools (one of which is a natural swimming pool planted with native plants). There is a formal front garden, designed by Arne Maynard, with a pleached crabtree border, topiary and soft planting including tulips, peonies, roses and verbascums. There is a walled garden with informal planting, a kitchen garden, an orchard and 350 rose bushes for a cut flower business.
