**About us**

Thyme is not a Hotel: we have a hotel, a spa, a cookery school, restaurants and a farm, we grow our vegetables, fruit & herbs, and we have nature at our heart.

We took time to make Thyme. Working with the historic buildings and the farm that surrounds them, we have created a thoughtful place with love and attention lavished on every detail. We hope you will experience a real connection to the land, the seasons and to nature, and we invite you to enjoy this English country idyll with our team.
