Tony & Kay Birchenhough invite you to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of their 4 star B&B Yellowham Farmhouse where peace and tranquillity is guaranteed, set in two acres of attractive and mature gardens complete with a tennis court. Yellowham Farmhouse offers spacious & well appointed en-suite bedrooms. Guests have their own private sitting room with comfortable chairs and sofas.
The accommodation is situated to the rear of the main house in a cloister type setting. The rooms are modern and well designed, surrounded by plants on the adjoining patio to one side and sheltered by the garden banks on the other. The spacious bedrooms are on the ground floor and are tastefully decorated.
We have furnished our sitting/garden room with comfortable sofas and armchairs and it is an ideal place for guests to relax and read a book. During the summer months our guests can sit in the woodland garden where they will encounter the various wildlife passing by.
ABOUT DORCHESTER:
Dorchester is a happy example of an old fashioned county town, a proper market centre for the still-rural county. Daniel Defoe visited in the early 18th century and decided 'a man that coveted a retreat in this world might as agreeably spend his time in Dorchester, as in any town I know in England'. Defoe had seen most of the towns in England, travelling to write his Tour through the Whole Island of Great Britain (1724), so his opinion was worth having.
In 1685, Judge Jeffreys presided here over the Bloody Assize following Monmouth's defeat at Sedgemoor, while in 1834, the Tolpuddle six were deported from here for their part in forming a union.

Nearby Attractions:
With its bustling shopping precincts, elegant 18th century houses, broad Walks and vital cultural life, Dorchester has much to offer in relaxation and rural charm. It still has much of Hardy's Casterbridge about it but, at Maiden Castle, its history goes back to the Iron Age. Elsewhere, Roman relics and vestiges of Saxon royalty vie with re-creations of Tutankhamun's Egypt, while modern interpretations of vernacular architecture create new vistas, championed by Prince Charles.
Things to see and do in Dorchester - Maiden Castle, Roman Town House, Dorset County Museum, Keep Military Museum, Tutankhamun's Exhibition, Teddy Bear House, Old Crown Court & Cells, Eldridge Pope Brewery Tours, Thomas Hardye Leisure Centre/Swimming Pool, Art Centre.
There are many places of interest and beauty to visit nearby. Picturesque villages and old towns all featured in Thomas Hardy's novels and varied largely unspoiled countryside. With landmarks such as Max Gate and Hangman's Cottage in Dorchester to Maiden Castle and the Cerne Giant found in the surrounding area.
