Hadspen house and garden, Grade II* listed country house in Pitcombe, England

The south front of Hadspen House extends across five bays, featuring sash windows and a prominent cornice topped with a low stone parapet.

William Player commissioned the construction of Hadspen House between 1687 and 1699, with the Hobhouse family acquiring the property in 1785.

The interior rooms display Georgian design elements, including Chippendale style bookcases in the library and period-specific dado wall paneling throughout.

The house underwent substantial renovations in 1828, 1886, and 1909, maintaining its architectural features while adapting to modern requirements.

Built with local Cary stone ashlar, the house follows a U-shaped plan and contains multiple preserved rooms from different historical periods.
