IBTHORPE MANOR FARM

IBTHORPE MANOR FARM

Ibthorpe Manor Farm is a Grade II* listed Queen Anne Manor house, which has been beautifully furnished throughout, merging antique furniture and furnishings with modern facilities.

The original house is dated around 1700, with additions rebuilt in 2008.

Ibthorpe's most famous visitor and sometime resident, Jane Austen, visited the house whilst staying with her friends the Lloyds at Ibthorpe House, our 'twin' house which is situted at the other end of the hamlet.

We are also only 10 minutes from Downton Abbey, otherwise known as Highclere Castle.

The outbuildings are older, with medieval origins, and the thatched threshing barn is purported to be the largest of its kind in Hampshire. Following a recent refurbishment and update, this barn is now available for hire for weddings, parties and other events.

The bedrooms are beautifully furnished and decorated, and each has its' own immaculate en-suite facilities.

Wi-fi is available throughout the house, and there is ample on-site parking.

Ibthorpe is a picturesque hamlet in the Bourne Valley in north Hampshire, southern England. The farm is now run as home for us and our numerous horses, dogs and bantams.

For 2009, 2010 & 2011 the house has been rated 5 stars, with an additional Silver Award for excellence, by The English Tourist Board.

6 Miles north of Andover and 11 miles south of Newbury, between Junction 14 of the M4 and the A303/A34 intersection, we are perfectly positioned for exploring the scenic countryside of Hampshire and Wiltshire, as well as offering a comfortable home from home for corporate guests.
