Pirton Court is an elegant grade 2* listed Manor House situated in the stunning Worcestershire countryside. The estate is almost equidistant between the historic city of Worcester on the River Severn and the largely Georgian town of Pershore on the River Avon. The Malvern Hills and Spa town of Cheltenham are 20 minutes’ drive, and the village is 30 miles from the border of mid Wales.
Dwellings on the site originate back to the doomsday book with the Court’s first “printed” mention in 1221. The grand house you see today is built on those early footprints and largely remains as a well-preserved 17th century moated Manor house.
Purchased in 1663 by the Earl of Coventry, the house remained in the hands of the family and the Croome Estate for over 300 years. The 6th Earl lived in the house during Capability Brown's Georgian remodelling of Croome Court.
Jacqui and Peter bought the house’s older North and West section in 2013 and began a long journey of conservation and restoration.
"Our mission has been to re-establish its once grand setting by working the gardens, preserving the original features and highlighting it's enchanting character".
"We are delighted to announce that the stone, brick and clay have now been restored. The wood and stone floors have been cleaned and polished and the curtains opened to let the light flood in. The sound of children's laughter and popping corks once echo again throughout the house and grounds".
They have researched the houses history, its distinguished visitors and those who lived and worked here. They have uncovered the secrets of their lives, their loves and their tragedies along the way…
During 2024 the house will open for guest vacations and for selected private & corporate events.
The history of Pirton Court is quite remarkable, its future is yet to be written. The journey continues…
Jacqui and Peter
