For the past 10 years, Ben Pentreath and his husband, Charlie McCormick, transformed The Old Parsonage in a small village in Dorset into a dream-like haven of flowers, vegetables and cosy English interiors. This beautifully illustrated book is a love letter to their time here, capturing the changing seasons, the vibrant garden, and the cherished moments shared with friends and family.

Join Ben and Charlie as they take you on a journey through the history and charm of The Old Parsonage, from the initial vision for the garden to the daily routines and traditions that made their home so special. Experience the rhythm of life in West Dorset, from the renewal of spring to the reflection of winter, and witness the couple's final moments in the house as they prepare for a new adventure on the remote island of Rousay, Orkney.

With countless photographs and personal anecdotes, A Year at the Parsonage offers an intimate glimpse into a life well-lived and the enduring impact of a beloved home. Whether you're a gardening enthusiast, a lover of English interiors, or simply seeking inspiration, this book is a timeless celebration of beauty, creativity and the joy of home.
