Glebe House

A PLACE WORTH KNOWING

A lovely reason to stay a little

A guest house and smallholding overlooking the Coly Valley, where a seasonal meal can become the start of a whole weekend away.

Glebe House brings the pleasure of a country stay together with a serious interest in what is on the table. The smallholding and kitchen gardens are part of the setting, with the Coly Valley beyond. Look out for its bread and pasta workshops if you would like something to make as well as somewhere to stay.

The lovely little details

Guest house, farm-to-table restaurant and 15-acre smallholding in the Coly Valley.
Offers countryside workshops including bread and pasta making.
Kitchen gardens, guest rooms and cabins, with a sauna and cold plunge.

SOMETHING TO LOOK OUT FOR

Make time for the kitchen’s seasonal menu

Choose a meal around what is growing in the garden. Kitchen Supper is the more homely format, with dishes such as pie, roast chicken or local fish appearing as the seasons allow.

A LITTLE WORD FROM OTHER VISITORS

Useful things to know.

A room worth looking at

Claire B’s January 2026 stay singled out the Rose Room’s roll-top bath and views. If those are high on your wish list, compare that room before booking.

VISITOR TIP

Look for the seasonal pastry dish

Andy H particularly enjoyed a partridge pithivier on a September 2026 tasting menu. It is a past visitor’s favourite rather than a permanent dish; ask what the kitchen is making now.
