About Athelhampton House

Athelhampton House is a fine example of a 15th Century house nestling in deepest Dorset. The gardens are now once more a pleasant place to sit following the opening of a new bypass! The views here are of the house and the porch entrance.http://www.athelhampton.co.uk/email: enquiry@athelhampton.co.uk
