A country house steeped in history and owned for centuries by one of the New Worlds founders would be on the list to visit by many tourists, but to stay in a house that shaped history would truly be a bonus. This is the proud heritage of Hunstrete House, which was once owned by the famous Popham family of Maine. The original building on the site is recorded in the Domesday Book.
Named by "Conde Naste Traveller" as one of the ten best English country houses, this 18th century Georgian manor house sits in 92 acres of parkland and deer park on the edge of the Mendips, midway between Bath and Bristol.
Arriving through the avenue of trees you immediately feel the peace and elegant charm of this quintessential English country house hotel.
On entering Hunstrete House you will find it beautifully furnished with antiques, chandeliers, original paintings and collections of fine porcelain in all the public rooms and bedrooms, (some of which are in a coach house) equally luxurious.

Hunstrete House is a gourmets delight and many of the regions top chefs have served their time here. The present incumbent Phillip Hobson is making his mark using vegetables and herbs organically grown in the hotels kitchen garden, to accompany the meat and fish dishes for which he is famous.
This is truly a hotel for all seasons with an outdoor heated pool, croquet lawn and tennis courts.
