You can visit Hardy's cottage at Upper Bockhampton (his birthplace) and Max Gate where he spent his adult life.

Our farm is said to be the inspiration behind Tess of the Derberville's.

Both are National Trust owned. Hardy was born and wrote his early novels in Hardy's thatched cottage, Brockhampton. Hardy later designed Max Gate, Dorchester and lived here until his death in 1928. In May the bluebell woods are spectacular.

Thomas Hardy's Cottage, in Higher Bockhampton, Dorset, is a small cob and thatch building that is the birthplace of the English author Thomas Hardy. He was born there in 1840 and lived in the cottage until he was aged 34—during which time he wrote the novels Under the Greenwood Tree (1872) and Far from the Madding Crowd (1874)[1]—when he left home to be married to Emma Gifford.
