Wonham House is set on a hill with incredible views over the beautiful Exe Valley in Devon. It was built in Victorian times as a hunting lodge for an MP and was requisitioned as a nursing home during the Second World War. Since then it’s served as a private girls school and for many years was a family home but now it’s been lovingly renovated to become a gorgeous large group holiday house that sleeps up to 24 in 9 bedrooms. There's an outdoor pool (Easter to the end of October*), hot tub and a games room with a pool table and table tennis. The beautiful location, the solitude and amazing facilities make this classic country house a wonderful place to stay for large family holidays and peaceful celebrations with your loved ones, for sophisticated hen gatherings and corporate breaks.
This is an area with plenty to see and do for all ages; close by is the quiet town of Bampton with local shops, a very good butchers and bakery, and an award-winning pub. Exmoor National Park isn’t far at all and makes for wonderful days out exploring the heathery heaths where wild ponies and red deer feed; the Devon coast is within easy reach for days by the sea. Right on the doorstep are walks in the fields and woodlands of the 36.5 acre grounds. Happy times will be had, extra special memories will be made when you stay at Wonham House.
*The pool can be used outside of these months but will not be heated and must be requested in advance.

"10/10 - Everything from the moment we arrived was completely perfect. It really is a very special house. The housekeeper, Sarah, who met us on arrival made us feel very welcome and was really helpful. When we did need some assistance (we lost power for a very short time in the living rooms) Charlie was immediately available on the phone to point us to the fuse box."
