Monkton Wyld Court
Prices at Monkton Wyld Court Bridport from £30 For seventy years, the Grade II listed neo-Gothic buildings and eleven acres of grounds, gardens and meadows of Monkton Wyld Court Bridport have been dedicated to the education and edification of residents, visitors and B&B guests. Designed by Richard Cromwell Carpenter, the house was built in 1848 as parsonage and architectural complement to nearby St Andrews Church. In 1940, after a brief period as a hotel, it was bought by Carl and Eleanor Urban, who relocated from London to establish a new school promoting cooperative living and learning. While the original School closed in 1982, the importance of farming and other practical skills and a focus on what’s now called sustainability have remained central to Monkton’s ethos. As an Educational Centre for Sustainable Living, Monkton Wyld Court Bridport today hosts a range of courses, conferences and gatherings for adults, families and children. From beekeeping to yoga, Monkton promotes low-impact, earth-centered skills for changing modern life. Family weeks with themes like bushcraft and fossil-hunting prove especially popular. Meals for guests are lovingly prepared in the house kitchen using fresh organic ingredients from the Court’s own Victorian walled garden and other local producers.
