Nestled in the rolling Hampshire countryside, Groomes Country House is a stunning 17th-century farmhouse set within 185 acres of beautiful land on the edge of the South Downs National Park. Perfect for private gatherings, celebrations, and weddings, the Grade II listed property blends historic charm with modern sustainability, being fully carbon neutral and powered by biomass heating and solar energy.
Inside, the house offers generous living spaces for both socialising and quiet relaxation. The large, fully equipped country kitchen opens to a welcoming dining room, ideal for family feasts or leisurely breakfasts. The lounge, with its oak beams, Baby Grand Piano, and woodburning stove, creates a cosy atmosphere, while the adjoining conservatory provides sweeping countryside views—perfect for sunset drinks. Downstairs, the snug and games room, complete with pool table, pinball, and gaming console, make a great retreat for teenagers and families alike.
Each of the six luxurious bedrooms features an en-suite bathroom with oversized baths and modern amenities. Highlights include the two-level Mezz suite with a king-size sleigh bed and panoramic views, the Dolphin room with mood-lit roll-top bath, and T&B’s, a regal space with a four-poster bed. Scarletts offers a peaceful top-floor retreat with breathtaking views, Dave’s can be arranged as a twin or double, and Toms provides accessible accommodation on the ground floor with a wet room and step-free access.
Outside, guests can enjoy al fresco dining, barbecues, and leisurely walks through the extensive gardens and grounds. Up to two dogs are welcome, provided they remain on the ground floor or in the heated boiler house to maintain the home’s hypoallergenic environment.
The nearby Good Taste Bakery & Coffee Shop is perfect for breakfast, while Guildford and Winchester offer historic attractions, shopping, and dining within easy reach. Guests can also explore the coast at Portsmouth or venture to Ascot and Goodwood for a day at the races.
Groomes Country House offers an exceptional blend of heritage, comfort, and eco-friendly luxury, providing an unforgettable base for exploring Hampshire and beyond.
