Abbey Dore Court

Abbey Dore Court is a Victorian country house built in 1861 near the village of Abbey Dore in Herefordshire. The building features multiple reception rooms, six bedrooms, and displays typical Victorian architectural details throughout its interior and exterior.

The property was built for Thomas Freke Lewis, a prosperous landowner who served as Master of the Herefordshire Hounds. An earlier structure, the Red Lion Inn from the early 1800s, was incorporated into the new construction.

The house gained television exposure through the series Country House Rescue, which highlighted its Victorian character and drew attention to country house living during 2010 and 2011.

The house accommodates up to sixteen guests in six bedrooms and includes modern facilities such as central heating, woodburning stoves, and entertainment systems throughout. The location offers convenient access by car to regional towns and villages, with nearby public transport options available.

The property includes a dedicated dance floor and baby grand piano, making it a venue for weddings and private celebrations. An enclosed garden adjoins the grounds, with a section of river flowing just meters away from the house.
