Dumbleton Hall Hotel is an impressive traditional Cotswold Manor House set in 19 acres of private gardens and woodland with its own lake. Dumbleton Hall is based on the border of Gloucestershire and Worcestershire between the towns of Evesham and Tewkesbury. The towns of Cheltenham, Worcester and Stratford-upon-Avon are only a short drive away. The Hotel is located in a peaceful setting and yet is also conveniently only 7 miles from junction 9 of the M5 and just minutes from the A46. The hotel has spectacular views in all directions; over the Cotswold hills and across the Vale of Evesham.

This is the perfect hotel for a relaxing Classic English Country House leisure break, a picturesque wedding venue or an ideal location for a Corporate “get away from the office” training or team building day.

Dumbleton Hall makes an ideal base for a short holiday exploring the Cotswolds by car or on foot, with several footpaths nearby, including The Cotswold Way. There are many delightful honey coloured Cotswold villages and small towns within a short distance, including Broadway, Winchcombe, Stow-on-the-Wold, Boughton-on-the-Water and the Slaughters.

The hotel boasts a range of comfortable bedrooms, with upgrades available at a very modest additional cost to make your stay even more special. There is plenty of space to relax in the lounges, bar, reception hall or outside on the terrace. Our grounds are perfect for short strolls.

We have a formal restaurant where breakfast and evening meals are served.

Due to our fabulous setting and internal period features, we make a lovely venue for a relaxing staycation especially in front of our roaring fire in the winter time or in our peaceful gardens in the summer.

We welcome dogs for a small additional charge, but do ask that you phone to book so that we may allocate you a dog friendly room.

Our staff regularly receive compliments for being very helpful and friendly.

Let us welcome you to Dumbleton Hall Hotel very soon.

History of the Dumbleton Hall

The original Dumbleton Hall can be traced from around 1534 as the home of the Cocks family for over 200 years. After the death of Sir Richard Cocks in the late 18th century the Hall fell into disrepair and was eventually demolished.

Rebuilt in the mid 19th century using Cotswold stone, Dumbleton Hall became home to the Eyres family and in the 1930′s the Hall was well known for its popular house parties with regular guests including John Betjeman, later to become Poet Laureate, and the famous Mitford sisters.

During the Second World War the Hall was allegedly considered as a suitable alternative venue for the House of Lords.

The Hall became a private hotel in 1959 when it was purchased by The Post Office Fellowship of Remembrance.

Through donations from Post Office employees, The Post Office Fellowship of Remembrance purchased Dumbleton Hall Hotel. One of many properties used as a living memorial to their fellow workers who had died in the two World Wars.

The hotel has been open to the general public since 1995.

In early 2021 The Post Office Fellowship of Remembrance sold Dumbleton Hall Hotel with the profits being donated to Post Office and BT related charities, to continue its mission to provide a living memorial for those workers who died the two World Wars.

Dumbleton Hall Hotel is now owned by the Dumbleton Hall Hotel Property Company Limited.

Dumbleton Hall Hotel is represented by Bespoke Hotels who have grown to represent over 120 properties worldwide, and stands as the UK’s Largest Independent Hotel Group. Founded in 2000 by Haydn Fentum and Robin Sheppard, Bespoke has consistently grown to the point where we now manage over 5,000 hotel rooms, and 6,000 employees
