Thatchcombe Blog

January is when our Thtachcombe truly comes into its own—calmer, cosier, and quietly magical. With the festive rush behind us, the countryside exhales, offering space, stillness, and a slower rhythm that’s perfect for rest and reflection. Our rooms are warm and inviting, designed for winter comfort. Think soft lighting, crisp linens, and the pleasure of returning from the cold to a welcoming, peaceful space. Mornings begin unhurriedly by the fire, with hot drinks and a hearty breakfast to set you up for the day.

After renaming our original suite " The Nook " we have now completed renovations of a second unit called " The Cranny ". Quiet, comfortable and yet very different, The Cranny has more space with separate sleeping and living areas plus an external patio overlooking the garden and Letcombe Brooke below. Situated at entrance level, there are fewer steps, should that be a problem. The spacious desk would suit anyone who needs to work in a quiet comfortable area supported by internet, coffee machine, fridge, microwave, cosy heating, TV and space to relax. Surrounded by 5 acres of garden and wild areas, a chalk stream, many paths and places to sit, the stillness is for most a refreshing and welcome change.
