Warbrook House, Grade I listed country house in Eversley, England
Warbrook House is a Grade I listed country house in Eversley, England, with an early 18th century design and neoclassical features. The grounds include carefully tended gardens with a Versailles-inspired canal and classical architectural details spread throughout the property.
Architect John James built Warbrook House in 1724 as his personal residence with distinctive architectural features of that era. During World War II, the estate served as a convalescent home under Isabelle Rosalind Humphreys-Owen's care and dedication to community service.
The name derives from 'Warb', an old term for a fortified place, which shaped the estate's identity and character. Visitors can sense this heritage connection in how the property sits within its surrounding landscape.
The property now operates as a heritage hotel with event facilities and offers accommodation in two buildings near the Berkshire-Hampshire border. Visitors should allow time to explore the grounds and check which areas are accessible to guests before planning their visit.
A special sundial at the entrance was handcrafted by London artisan William Collier, showcasing the attention to quality materials and workmanship in the original design. This decorative element reflects the care taken in creating refined details throughout the property.
