Move in and enjoy the magic from the start!

A farmhouse originally occupied the site of Glazebrook House, with the current building still encompassing three of the original rooms.
Later, in 1865, the farmhouse was converted into a manor house in what is believed to have been a two-phased extension to the south and subsequently north sides. Though Georgian in design, the property’s granite entrance portico alludes to its early Victorian elements, further
authenticated by its Victorian light-well and the stained glassed windows on the stairwell that illuminate the area with natural light.

In 1945, Glazebrook House was bought by naval commander Algernon Edmund Penrice-Lyons, who owned the property until circa 1970 when it was converted into a hotel. The current owners
have carried out considerable refurbishments since their purchase in 2013, giving the house a new lease of life and ensuring its longevity, future proofing it for its next owner and custodians.
