Calcot Manor

Calcot Manor is a limestone country house set across a large estate with 35 rooms, combining traditional English architecture and surrounding gardens. The buildings maintain their original character while serving as guest accommodations.

This property began around 1300 as an outbuilding of a monastic abbey and preserves evidence of even earlier occupation. Archaeological finds show the site was used in Roman times.

The house transitioned from working agricultural land into a hospitality space, showing how country estates adapted to modern uses while keeping their character. Visitors see how historic rooms now serve contemporary purposes.

The estate sits near Tetbury in Gloucestershire with various room types to suit different needs and group sizes. The grounds are spacious, so plan time to explore the gardens and outbuildings at a leisurely pace.

A Roman limestone carving of an officer on horseback was once discovered at the site and is now kept at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford. This reveals the area had significance long before the manor was built.
