1 review of Thomas Hardy's House

A typical English cottage

Excellent

"Thomas Hardy Cottage" is the birthplace of Thomas Hardy, the English poet and writer of the second half of the nineteenth century. His novels were usually set in the south-west of England, including his best-known works, "Tess of the d'Ubervilles" (1891) and "Jude the Obscure" (1896). His birthplace is a small typical English cottage built in the early nineteenth century with stone walls and a thatched roof, surrounded by an orchard and a vegetable garden. It is located a few kilometers from the city of Dorchester, in the county of Dorset in southern England. Thomas Hardy spent his childhood and adolescence here, and later returned as an adult, looking for inspiration.

The cottage is open to visitors from March to October. You can visit the house, look around the rooms, and venture into the garden outside for a fee of £ 5 per adult and £ 2 per child.
