Picture taken in Portugal in a Audrey Hepburn moment! Have been hosting guests here for over 10 years and love it. I bought Compton House in 2004 initially to host weddings and events but now as a more senior person hosting to small groups is more enjoyable and more convenient. Before the pandemic I would do at least one long haul trip a year- favourite destinations include Nepal, India, Vietnam, Cambodia, Singapore and Bali and a camping Safari in Tanzania. Nowadays my holidays are a bit closer to home in Europe. I have an amazing Yoga Teacher daughter and a beautiful grandson whom I visit a lot in London where I lived for over 30 years. In my earlier years I trained as a dancer, played a lot of tennis and squash and had a long and successful career in the hospitality industry.

Compton House is a welcoming house. It has warmth and character and lots of space which suits many groups of guests. Croquet or Badminton on the lawn is enjoyed by many guests and the local pubs and out door pursuits draw guests to explore historic Axbridge and nearby Cheddar, Wells and Glastonbury. Compton House is full of contrasting styles with its Medieval and Georgian architecture and its eclectic mix of antique and vintage furniture and oak and flagstone floors.. The main paneled Dining Room is a rather grand room and popular for formal and informal dinners as the old Ship's table seats up to 16 people. This south facing house with its terrace and mature gardens lends itself to outside dining and having a very relaxing and social time. All rooms are en suite with the exception of the Attic level where two rooms share the same bath/shower room.
