Compton House. A Charming Country House Hotel

Compton House dates back to medieval times and was the family home of Christopher Fry, the playwright. Today it is run as a privately owned small hotel owned by Patricia and Robert Tallack who have taken great care to retain the historic charm and personality of this elegant Georgian house.

Guests can dine in the elegantly paneled dining room or outside on the terrace if weather permits. Drinks can be served from the Butler's Pantry and there is a comprehensive wine list to choose from.
