Review
Dormy House may have started life in the 17th century as a farmhouse, but don’t expect anything too rustic. A recent extensive revamp has revealed it in all its glory: as one of the most comfortable, stylish and contemporary places to rest your head in the area. The forty rooms are equipped with top notch toiletries, Nespresso machines and tablets, and the six suites are each unique and charming.
The hotel has been designed with city visitors in mind. The spa is slick and luxurious; you can sit on the spa terrace–perhaps after a spell in the mud room–and watch the local wildlife from the comfort of your robe. Because some things stay the same: the hotel is still part of the 400-acre Farncombe Estate.
There are two restaurants. Choose the Garden Room for dinner and Sunday lunch or thePotting Shed for all-day dining.
Who Should Stay
Those who like country luxury blended with modern conveniences, and a convivial atmosphere: Dormy House welcomes, and caters well for, children and dogs.
