Talbooth House & Spa

Set back and beyond the gravel driveway, Talbooth House & Spa is a 4 AA Red Star hotel with views over the Constable countryside and Dedham Vale.

The hotel has twelve individually designed bedrooms, each different in style, décor and character. All are named after English poets, from Shakespeare and Keats to Newbolt and Betjeman. A copy of each poet's most famous poem is framed in each room. The hotel is ideal for a short stay of a night or two. In fact, Dedham Vale has been quoted in the Telegraph as one of the best places for a 'cheeky weekend away'.

On arrival, you'll be greeted with a friendly welcome. Through the front door, the bright and relaxed lounge leads to the Garden Room, which opens entirely onto the outdoor terrace.

If you fancy a little more activity, we have an excellent tennis court which overlooks the pool and offers fantastic views of the countryside. The Talbooth House team can also arrange canoe, paddle board or bike hire, a great way to explore the Dedham Vale.  The hotel is dog friendly and has many interesting and varied walks nearby.

For dinner and definitely a highlight of a stay in Dedham is the Talbooth Restaurant, with 3 AA rosettes, is our riverside restaurant serving outstanding food just a few minutes away in our courtesy car. Milsoms is closely located, open all day for dining with 1 AA rosette, and has a more informal menu within a contemporary interior.
