Coombe Abbey is a wonderfully atmospheric 12th century Cistercian Abbey, converted to a luxurious and charismatic hotel, near Coventry in Warwickshire. Like its sister hotel Lumley Castle in County Durham, Coombe Abbey is a fascinating combination of a country house hotel, historical landmark and medieval-themed curiosity. It is certainly a formula that works, given the popularity of Coombe Abbey and Lumley Castle, and the whole experience is refreshingly different, with plenty of character and wonderfully idiosyncratic features throughout. All of this eccentricity is however backed up by the provision of modern facilities and amenities, and the overall feel is of a sumptuous country house hotel but with a real difference.
The central feature of Coombe Abbey Hotel is of course the 12th century Cistercian Abbey itself. Set in 500 acres of beautiful parkland, close to Coventry in Warwickshire, the property has been converted to a luxury hotel, but with considerable sympathy and consideration – much of the original building’s character and charm has been retained, and complemented perfectly by the Medieval décor chosen for the bedchambers and public areas.
There are 119 bedrooms and suites at Coombe Abbey, each one with its own unique character and thoughtful extras. Additionally the hotel also boasts an excellent restaurant; Garden Restaurant serves a fine selection of cuisine, complemented by choice wines and served by attentive, discreet staff. Coombe Abbey is also establishing itself as a venue for meetings and conferences with a real difference. Situated conveniently close to Coventry and Birmingham, and with easy access to the M6, M69 and M1 motorways, Coombe Abbey offers nine conferencing rooms that will ensure that your event is remembered for a long time. Add to this impressive package the myriad of exciting and historic attractions in the surroundings of Warwickshire – Shakespeare’s County – and it becomes clear why the Coombe Abbey Coventry is the popular venue that it is.
