TRADITIONS BEGIN AT THE TABLE

Meals here become markers of memory — a celebratory dinner beneath antique chandeliers, afternoon tea served on fine Wedgwood, or an evening cocktail in a room that hums with echoes of another era. Each space has its own personality, yet all share the same spirit: gracious, welcoming and unmistakably Dumbleton.

Cocktails & conversation

With its marble-topped bar and atmosphere inspired by the elegance of the jazz age, The Library Bar brings a touch of playful glamour to the manor.

Evoking the mood of an intimate private lounge — refined, welcoming and quietly indulgent — it is a place for aperitifs, late-evening drinks and fireside exchanges.

The menu celebrates both heritage and locality, from Charles Heidsieck Champagne to spirits from the Cotswolds Distillery, alongside classic cocktails and seasonal creations. It is, in spirit, the gentleman’s smoking room reimagined for a modern house party.

Fireside relaxation

The Drawing Room

With two open fires and curated antiques, The Drawing Room is the heart of the house — a setting made for conversation, comfort and ceremony.

Afternoon tea is served here on fine Wedgwood crockery, transforming a simple pause in the day into a ritual of elegance. By evening, the room glows with firelight and views across the lake beyond, offering a dining experience that feels timeless and quietly grand.


Fireside relaxation

The Pheasant Lounge

Overlooking the woodland and anchored by an ornamental fireplace, The Pheasant Lounge offers a more relaxed rhythm.

Here, guests gather for light lunches, informal suppers and easy conversation, with nature just beyond the windows. It is a space that invites lingering — a bridge between the landscape 
and the life of the house.


All-day dining
Menus designed for lingering — seasonal, generous and always in tune with the rhythm of the day.
Lounge refreshments
A gentle pause in the day, with warming teas, cooling drinks and time set aside to linger, talk and simply be.

A House of Layers, A Table of Plenty

Our approach to food and drink reflects the house itself: expressive rather than restrained, rich in detail, and always welcoming. Here, maximalism is not excess but generosity

— in flavour, in atmosphere, and in the pleasure of gathering well.
