Once described as “the most perfect monastery in England”, Forde Abbey is a beacon of elegant antiquity, set within the exquisite countryside of Dorset. Built almost 900 years ago by Cistercian monks, the Abbey still embodies the serenity and philosophy of the order who lived, prayed and farmed there.
Absorb the tranquil atmosphere of the beautiful 30 acre country garden all year round and marvel at England’s highest powered fountain.
There is also a tearoom, plant centre, gift shop and Eeles Pottery.
