Companion

Walk in the footsteps of Ada Lovelace at De Vere Horsley Estate, Surrey, which was originally her marital home.

De Vere Wokefield Estate, set in 250 acres of Berkshire parkland, was built in 1788 by celebrated architect Sir John Soane, and has been welcoming distinguished guests into its surroundings for centuries.

We’ve partnered with British publishing house Bloomsbury to create an exclusive Book Club for De Vere guests across six of our properties.

We Brits love our pets. They’re a member of the family. So, when searching for a family staycation, it’s no surprise that the question on all our lips is… ‘is it dog-friendly?’.

With Christmas decorations long gone, and Covid restrictions lifting it’s always important to remember to take care of your health and wellbeing.

We joined Joe Davenport and his family on a cycling weekend in the Cotswolds to see what all the fuss is about.

Settling into the embrace of a comfy chair at a De Vere mansion house hotel with a good book is one of life’s purest pleasures. Our mansion house hotels are fitting places to get lost in a book, with an abundance of welcoming lounges, atmospheric bars and comfy snugs.

We’ve put together our top five family days out in Gloucestershire that will get you back to nature and fill your lungs with fresh air as you explore this stunning part of the country.
