Smedmore House

Smedmore House is available for rental for Weekends, Holidays, Corporate events and all types of Celebration – it’s particularly good for multi-generational Big birthday parties and anniversaries. It is let on an exclusive whole-house basis. The main part of the house sleeps 16 people in 8 double bedrooms and for additional guests, there is the option of the adjoining Garden Wing with a further 3 double bedrooms so that the total that can be accommodated is 22.

The charm of the house is its age and character, with family sized rooms, panelling, library shelves and antique furnishings, all well lit by large windows. It has the timeless, comfortable atmosphere of a well-loved family home.

The furniture in the house has been handed down through the generations and there are Dutch seventeenth-century pictures and ancestral portraits on the walls.  The dining room, which seats 20, has eighteenth-century plaster-work and walls hung with over 100 blue Furstenberg plates.   The elegant Drawing Room has an open wood fire while the Cedar Room, for family sitting, has satellite TV and there is broadband in most rooms.
