About Boringdon Hall Hotel
Stay in the historical Boringdon Hall and experience a past that stretches back as far as the Domesday Book.
The name ‘Boringdon’ comes from the Saxon ‘Burth-Y-Don’ meaning ‘enchanted place on the hill’.
Our grand Devonshire manor became crown property following the dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII in 1539. The monarch later granted the property to his courtier Thomas Wriothesley, the Earl of Southampton, who was a royal favourite. Since then, Boringdon Hall has since had a rather extravagant makeover, giving this stately pile a serious air of perfection, with devotedly designed interiors, 55 sumptuous rooms and suites, a well-stocked bar and two tantalising restaurants – the MICHELIN Star and 4 AA Rosette Àclèaf, 2 AA Rosette Mayflower Brasserie and the Great Hall where lighter bites and afternoon tea is served.
Five star Boringdon Hall boasts a variety of private events spaces, two restaurants, fire-lit lounges, enchanting nooks, manicured grounds and complimentary WiFi throughout.
Boringdon Hall is home to MICHELIN Stared Restaurant Àclèaf which was awarded its first star in 2023.
Gaia Spa is a purpose-built wellness spa set within the grounds of Boringdon, a completely unique space for relaxation and reconnecting with nature, designed with the need for complete well-being in mind.

We’re thrilled and proud to to be a member of PoB Hotels. PoB Hotels is the leading collection of independent, luxury hotels in the UK and we are proud to be a part of this in recognition of our five-star manor house, award-winning Gaia Spa, Michelin Star and 4 AA Rosette restaurant Àclèaf and 2 AA Rosette restaurant Mayflower Brasserie.
PoB Hotels only invite the very best independent hotels to join their collection – but there’s much more to it than that. Think of PoB Hotels as the key and each hotel as a door to new experiences. Each completely unique. Each hand-picked. Each the Pride of Britain.
Established in 1982 by a group of 12 passionate hoteliers, PoB Hotels today has grown to over 50 city-based, countryside and coastal locations. The essence of PoB Hotels is built on its British heritage, honouring provenance and sincere, authentic service. They love the independent nature and unique culture at each property. What ties the hotels together is not being the same but celebrating individuality with a common vision- offering guests the best experiences.
They’re all about pairing each guest with an experience that’s extraordinary and unique, and Boringdon Hall is inspected annually to ensure we live up to the PoB standard.
In 2022, PoB Hotels partnered with EarthCheck, the leading global sustainability certification programme. This step formalises an ongoing commitment to responsible travel and an effort to promote sustainable practices across its collection.
