Thomas Hardy's home for around 40 years, Max Gate lies on the outskirts of Dorchester. Before he turned his hand to writing extraordinary works of fiction, Hardy trained as a builder and architect, and designed and built this beautiful house. Some of his most famous works were written here and he was still resident when he died in 1928.

Now under the ownership and care of the National Trust although it was bequeathed to them by Hardy's sister under the stipulation that it remain lived in. As a result, it has been occupied ever since, although much of it is open to the public five days a week.
