Nestled in the beautiful Georgian village of Bowlish,
‘Bowlish House’ is the ultimate dreamy country escape
Our Grade II* Georgian Palladian stately home, completed in c. 1732, is a stunning example of early Georgian architecture and is the ultimate haven for a peaceful country escape, an intimate wedding or a special celebration. The house is also used as a location house for film and photography
Bowlish – which means ‘bridge over the rocky waterfall’, is a picturesque hamlet that mainly consists of charming listed historic houses and cottages. A stone’s throw from local places of interest such as the ancient Cathedral city of Wells, the city of Bath, Glastonbury Tor and the vibrant local towns of Frome and Bruton. There are so many wonderful things to do in our local surroundings before you retreat to your stylish room to snuggle down and dream, drift and dwell

A friend and I spent a fab night at the gorgeous Bowlish House Hotel. Nicola has not only decorated the hotel beautifully but is a natural host who made us feel super welcome and at home. Rooms are gorgeous, bed comfy and the breakfast delicious. Thankyou for a great stay!

We had my Mum's wake at Bowlish House, and it was perfect. The ambience, setting and attention to detail were spot-on. The rooms we used were beautiful and furniture, antiques and decor added to the sophistication. The tea and coffee kept coming for top-ups and the buffet lunch was plentiful and superb. The bar staying open for us afterwards was an added bonus. Thank you Bowlish House for making the day perfect, we couldn't have asked for more.

Bowlish House is an absolutely beguiling country house hotel nestled in a quiet corner of Somerset. It is filled with art, light, and warm family-friendly vibes. If you are looking for the true country house experience in Somerset I can’t recommend Bowlish House enough!

So much potential, and such a grand opening awaits, there's a few more technical difficulties to iron out, as it's had a much needed makeover, and delays can be expected, given the age of the property, and it's limited upkeep in the past. All the best to the new brave owner, manager. and staff.

We had a lovely time and have already recommended Bowlish House to many friends. It is the quintessential country house hotel. The rooms are cozy & the breakfast is delicious. It was the perfect spot from which to explore the rest of Somerset

Bowlish House is a fantastic wedding venue. We had out wedding there in December and they really went out of their way to provide the best possible service and made the day truly tailored to us. The food was amazing, even though they were serving 80 guests the food was just as good as their Sunday lunch! The accommodation was great, and they worked some magic accommodating our ever changing and complicated requests! We would recommend Bowlish as a wonderful venue for a wedding. Kate and Scott

Our unique home will soon be coming to the end of a complex restoration project. Overseen by previous owners, Dee Murren and Nicola Knight, we are now in the final stages. We have lovingly restored this Georgian gem with both style, functionality and preservation at its heart. From the creaky floorboards, which we have grown to adore, to the original tall sash windows, shutters, floor to ceiling panelling and original fireplaces, Bowlish House is the perfect place to recharge and restore.
