For over a decade, celebrated interior designer Ben Pentreath and award-winning gardener Charlie McCormick transformed The Old Parsonage in Dorset into one of Britain’s most inspiring homes.

Filled with decorating inspiration, gardening ideas and breathtaking photography, it’s a book to return to throughout the year.
Perfect for lovers of interior design, English country houses, gardens, decorating, flowers, architecture and country living, and for readers of Ben Pentreath’s bestselling books.
Ben Pentreath is the founding director of the influential architectural and interior design studio based in London. In 2023, Ben was awarded the Richard H. Driehaus Prize, given to a living architect whose work embodies the highest principles of traditional and classical architecture and urbanism in contemporary society, and reflects what the jury considers to be positive cultural, environmental and artistic impacts. Ben is one of the youngest laureates of the award. In 2024, his much-anticipated monograph, An English Vision, was published by Rizzoli, documenting 20 years of Ben’s work and philosophy.
