Dormy House Hotel

My husband and I spent two nights at Dormy House Hotel, and it truly felt less like staying at a hotel and more like being welcomed into a friend’s beautiful country home—just with added luxury. From the moment we arrived, everything about the place felt warm, cozy, and genuinely inviting. The hotel itself is full of charm, with thoughtfully designed spaces that make it easy to relax and unwind. Our room was both comfortable and beautifully decorated, striking that perfect balance between rustic character and modern comfort. One of the absolute highlights of our stay was the food. Everything we had was delicious, but the scones deserve a special mention—they were hands down the best we’ve ever eaten. The spa was another standout experience—it truly melted all our stresses away. We’d highly recommend setting aside time not just to enjoy the facilities, but also to indulge in some of the treatments. It added such a relaxing and restorative element to our stay. We also loved getting out to explore the surrounding countryside. The hotel kindly lent us wellies and provided very detailed maps, which made our walks all the more enjoyable. The scenery was stunning—peaceful, picturesque, and exactly what you hope for in the Cotswolds. We’d highly recommend the walk to Broadway Tower and a visit to the nearby village of Broadway—both are absolutely worth it. What really made our stay special, though, was the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful, and Megan in particular stood out. She was always cheerful and consistently went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and well looked after. We left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and already talking about when we might return. We couldn’t recommend Dormy House more highly.

Perched at the highest point of the 500 acre Farncombe Estate, Dormy House looks out across the Cotswold hills above the village of Broadway, and the real insider tip is to come hungry, because the food is genuinely glorious. Don't miss is the proper country playground on the doorstep, where you can spend a day channelling your inner lumberjack at the axe throwing, shooting and archery before lunch. Then retreat to the spa, where a beautifully calm thermal suite and pool let you unwind every last muscle.

Our stay at Dormy House near Broadway in the Cotswolds was fabulous. Highly recommended by friends, Dormy House was the luxurious Cotswolds overnight we dreamed of. Every detail was thought of by the most proactive and warm staff. The spa area was modern and welcoming. The bedroom and bathroom were comfortable, cosy and modern. The hotel orientation was complete and included a welcome drink in the parlor and we were sent on our departure with freshly baked chocolate chocolate chip cookies. We look forward to returning in the future and will recommend this gem to all.
