About this property

Park House, Dorchester

Situated within the grounds of the Came House Estate, Park House is a combination of our two handsome houses, The Garden House and The Courtyard House, which together can accommodate up to 19 guests in style.

Dating from the mid 18th century, both properties enjoy the splendour and elegance of Palladian architecture along, with the comforts and luxuries of the modern age, thanks to a sensitive and thoughtful renovation. Perfect for a multi-generational family gathering, both houses have stylish and generous sized rooms, and flexible bedroom accommodation so that all members of the family can be easily accommodated. Each house has its own well-equipped kitchen, beautiful sitting rooms, and plenty of bathrooms and en-suites, making your holiday home ideal for your large party.

The Garden House and The Courtyard House sit next to each other, and close to stunning Came House at the centre of the Estate. Enjoy the beautiful views all across this private Estate, and relaxing countryside walks in this special rural location, much loved by Dorset's Thomas Hardy.

Just a short ten minute drive away you will find Ringstead Beach, Osmington or Weymouth Bay, and all of the delights of the Jurassic Coast are close by, including popular Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. The county town of Dorchester is just two miles away and offers a good selection of shops, cafes, restaurants, two cinemas and several well-acclaimed museums. Park House is an ideal setting for your special occasion, and everyone will enjoy the sense of space and style.

For smaller groups, both properties can also be booked individually with The Garden House (sleeping 9 guests) and The Courtyard House sleeping 10 guests).
