The Old Hall Ely Information

Description

Our privately owned country house is set in plush, manicured gardens with ornamental lakes and unobstructed views of Ely Cathedral. Our guests can enjoy romantic walks around our grounds and enjoy the abundant wildlife, or relax inside with incredible views over the Fens. We have a fine dining restaurant, The Orangery, which opened in 2022. Our chefs create superb menus, championing local and seasonal English produce. With delicious wines and cocktails available, incredible interiors and atmosphere, The Orangery is a destination restaurant in Cambridgeshire. In the colder months you can enjoy tea and evening tipples by the roaring fires throughout the house, emotive sunsets and crisp mornings. I n the warmer months you can enjoy our gardens, drinks on the Cathedral Terrace and an evening under the stars in our Topiary Courtyard.

The Old Hall Ely

The Old Hall Ely certainly has character. From the moment you drive through our gates and meander down our driveway, usually spotting a few pheasants on the way, you will feel at home. The house stands proudly surrounded by incredibly well looked after gardens. We are true stewards of our Estate, and our attention to detail is second to none. Above all else, we pride ourselves on superb service and English country hospitality. We know that you will have an amazing stay with us, and that you will leave feeling refreshed and revitalised.
