Monkton Wyld Court - Bridport

Elsdon s Lane Charmouth
Bridport DT6 6DQ


 As an education centre for sustainable living Monkton Wyld Court hosts a range of courses conferences and gatherings for adults families and children providing a valued resource for the local community and for people from further afield including the tired city-dweller seeking the re-invigoration of fresh food and country air. br / br / br / br / With our eleven acres of gardens and meadows we are located in a secluded valley within walking distance of Lyme Regis Charmouth and Dorset s famous Jurassic coast so we are the perfect base for seaside holidays. br / br / br / br / The Grade II listed Neogothic Court was built in 1848 as a Rectory. In 1940 pioneering educators Carl and Eleanor Urban established a co-educational boarding school here to promote cooperative living and learning. Although the original Monkton Wyld School closed in 1982 the importance of farming and other practical skills and a focus on sustainability have remained central to our ethos. br / br / br / br / The Court is now run and maintained by a resident community with the help of volunteers. We work to develop and promote a lifestyle based on mutual respect for each other and for the natural environment and strive to live as sustainably as we can. br / br / br / br / Decisions are made by consensus and new community members join through a gradual process that begins with a volunteering visit.
