Combe House is a grand Grade I Elizabethan manor that is just perfect for some country house romancing.

Set in the idyllic village of Gittisham, with its thatched cottages, babbling brook and village Green, Combe House is part of a landscape untouched by time.

Found at the end of a winding drive the house and staff offer a warm country welcome and you'll feel like Lords and Ladies of the manor sitting in front of the roaring log fires.

The 16 lush bedrooms are all individually styled, and if you want a touch of elegant splendour the suites and master bedrooms are sure to have you feeling like gentry. These rooms give panoramic views over the estate and are decorated in plush, rich fabrics and antiques.

The superior rooms have their own unique features; from panelled bathrooms, to hand-painted murals adorning the walls, and fresh decor to leave you calmed.

The Kingsize and doubles rooms, though slightly smaller, offer a more country house feel with floral and striped fabrics.

For a more intimate romantic break, you can stay in the secluded Combe Cottage. The cottage has a walled garden to ensure your privacy, and the renovated building offers historic period features coupled with a neutral, modern interior.

Dining at the hotel is also a stylish experience. The food, sourced locally and seasonal, can be served al fresco in the summer, or you can dine in one of the many dining rooms. The wildly romantic Mural dining room is stunning.

The period charm and elegance of the building and country surroundings make Combe House a grand setting for a for a fairytale wedding.

For an extra £9.00 per night, you can also bring your dog to stay at the hotel. With local walks and sprawling countryside, your four legged friend will be in doggie heaven!
