The History Of Merley House

Merley House, located in Wimborne, Dorset, was constructed in 1756. Originally spelled Myrle, Merley was an ancient manor belonging to the Canford Lords. In 1751, Ralph Willett acquired the estate and built the impressive house we see today.
A walled garden was established to the northeast of the house, with an orangery on the south side. This orangery has survived to the present day and was once known as the Merley Bird Gardens, home to many exotic bird species. It is now referred to as the Orangery Suite.
The entire estate was sold at auction in 1875, but little information is available about the seller until it was purchased by Ivor Guest, the 1st Lord of Wimborne. In 1927, Angus Valdemar Hambro, the MP for South Dorset, bought the estate in a dilapidated state and spent two years renovating it.

With the outbreak of war in 1939, the War Office requisitioned the house. After their departure in 1946, the property was again sold at auction. By this time, the estate had been reduced to just 270 acres and was sold in 14 lots, leading to its conversion into flats.
In the 1960s, the current owners established a holiday park to help finance the house’s restoration. The ground floor was opened to the public and featured a collection of model cars, lorries, airplanes, ships, and train sets. Most recently, the downstairs has been restored to create spacious and elegant areas.
