Farmhouse Bed and Breakfast
Gold Food for Life Catering
Orchard Farmhouse has just been given Organic Certification by the Soil Association. We are the first to gain Gold under the Food for Life scheme. This is because of our commitment to fully organic ingredients in our food. It is also because we go to great lengths to find local and seasonal organic food and drink. A Dorset organic B & B is possible because of many excellent organic farms.
Contact Orchard Farmhouse Organic B&B today and have a chat. Telephone 01258 817201. For rates and special offers for families this August see our Room Tariff.
Or email orchardfarmhouse@yahoo.co.uk and ask us for more information.
When guests arrive at Orchard Farmhouse Organic B and B they usually say, "Wow, what a view!" On being shown their room, they are delighted to find they have the full panoramic view.
After a journey people are often tired so we sit them down in our sitting room to look out over the terrace and garden. Its a gorgeous vista of one of our garden orchard, the wonderful willows and the hills in the distance. A cup of tea or coffee and they are soon revived.
We are fortunate to be able to share our historic house with our guests. It is tranquil, comfortable and a bit special. With only three guest rooms and a lounge for you to share, a more exclusive location would be hard to find. Add to that a unique breakfast menu. Walkers, cyclists, children and dogs are welcome.
With easy access to the historic market towns of Dorchester, Sherborne, Shaftesbury and Blandford Forum, you are in the heart of a beautiful county at Orchard Farmhouse, Wonston, Hazelbury Bryan, Sturminster Newton, Dorset, DT10 2EE. Within an hour's drive you can access coastline as diverse as Lulworth Cove, Weymouth and Chesil Beach.
Sailors
We are keen dinghy and yacht sailors and run ABCSailing. We can suggest many places to launch a boat, learn sailing or hire a yacht. We even offer courses in sailing theory.
Beach Combers
Dorset has some of Britain's finest beaches. Sandbanks is gorgeous. It can be busy in the high days of summer in which case we can suggest some less well known spots near Lulworth Cove and Bridport. The fossils near Lyme Regis are fascinating.
Whoever you are, you can be sure of a special welcome from Sarah and Rupert at Orchard Farmhouse, a North Dorset Bed and Breakfast serving only certified organic food.
Artists
Please come and stay and make our Organic B and B your base for drawing and painting the Dorset landscape. Sarah is an art therapist and enjoys drawing. We have a few books on art to refer to and perhaps inspire you - though the views should do the trick.
We also host small events in our farmhouse such as talks on the environment. We hope to have the Hardy Society visit one day.
Touring: We know the Dorset, Somerset and South West of England area very well. Below is one of the fabulous views from a tiny side road. See the barn in the background? It featured in the film of Far from the Madding Crowd.
