Combe’s Festive Dinners & Winter Parties
have December all wrapped up!

We offer great food and simple, warm hospitality. Open the broad oak door to be greeted by a huge, log burning fire, towering pine tree, garlands of greenery, candlelight and fresh festive flowers. We won’t overdose you with gaudy decorations.

Combe House can accommodate private parties for up to 50 people in the elegant Panel Room. There is also the opportunity for exclusive use of the candlelit Georgian Kitchen and Green Mural Dining Room for smaller numbers.
