The Hill family’s Victorian manor in Warwickshire, rescued from dereliction and filled with wallpaper, craft and good food.
Hampton Manor
Hampton Manor is a Victorian house with a clock tower in the village of Hampton-in-Arden. The Hill family found it derelict, and James Hill’s parents, Jan and Derrick, did the hard work that turned it back into a hotel. James and Fjona Hill now run it as a family estate with three restaurants, a bakery and a walled kitchen garden.
Fjona leads the design across the estate, and the rooms show her appetite for colour. Bedrooms mix strong patterned wallpapers with tiled fireplaces, freestanding baths and Windsor chairs, while the library and whisky snug keep to deep reds and leather. Open shelves of handmade ceramics carry the same craft thread that runs through Grace & Savour, so the house reads as lived in rather than finished.

A house on the north Wales coast, renovated by its owners with a small team of local makers.
Ty Coch
Ty Coch sits at Clynnog Fawr in Gwynedd, where the Llŷn Peninsula begins. Miles and Julie renovated the house themselves with a small team of local makers, and it reads as one couple’s taste carried through every room, down to the jellyfish wallpaper Miles designed.
Much of the effort goes outside. An outdoor kitchen is the newest addition, and the beach hut and weathervane get the same attention as anything indoors. Most of the furniture and details come with a story, and the house is better for being furnished by the people who live in it.

People make a space
Charlie Gladstone Entrepreneur
Charlie Gladstone judges a space by the people in it, and by the confidence of its taste.
A wing of William Gladstone’s family home, opened to guests by his descendants and filled with the family’s art.
The West End, Hawarden Castle
Hawarden Castle in Flintshire was William Gladstone’s home, and the family still lives there. Charlie and Caroline Gladstone have turned its west wing into a five-bedroom house for guests, looking out over the gardens, the lake and the ruins of the 13th-century castle.
They designed it themselves, and it feels lived in. Walls are painted in deep, rich colours and hung with family portraits, clocks and art from David Shrigley and Julian Opie to Turner, with a vast 18th-century Don Quixote painting filling one bedroom. There are Welsh wool cushions, a bust of Gladstone in the sitting room and no televisions. Outside there’s a private woodland garden with a wood-fired tub and a pizza oven, and Gladstone’s own library is on the floor below.

Crossing the threshold
James Hill Owner, Hampton Manor
James Hill wants hospitality that engages every sense and tells the story of its place, not status-driven luxury.
A curated collection of hospitality spaces that set the standard for considered design.
A Space Beyond is curated by OHMY (“we”, “us”), the trading name of OhMy! Studio Limited, a company registered in England and Wales (company number 09315320). This page sets out the terms for using the site, how we handle personal information and what we store in your browser. If anything here is unclear, email us at hello@aspacebeyond.com.

Terms of use
By using A Space Beyond you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the site.
What the site is
An editorial collection of hospitality spaces and the people who made them. We choose every space ourselves. Nobody pays to be included, and being included is not an endorsement of a business, its owners or its services.
Accuracy
We check every space and credit before it goes live, but details change. Opening hours, ownership, prices and credits may be out of date, so check with the space before you rely on them. If you know something here to be wrong, tell us and we’ll put it right. The site is provided as it is, without any promise that it will be complete, accurate or always available.
Photographs and words
Photographs are supplied to us by the spaces, or taken from images the spaces publish themselves, on the understanding that the space owns them or has the right to share them. We credit the photographer wherever we know who it is. If you own a photograph shown here and it shouldn’t be, or it’s credited wrongly, email us and we’ll take it down or correct it. The writing, design and selection are ours. You’re welcome to share links to any page. Please don’t copy, republish or use the photographs or text for anything else without asking us, and the photographer where one is credited, first.
Submitting a space or a credit
When you send us a space, a credit or photographs, through the form or by email, you confirm that what you’ve told us is accurate and that you’re entitled to share it. You agree that we may check it with the space and the people involved, and publish the credit, the name you give, your part in the work and any photographs you send. We decide what is published and may edit or decline a submission without giving a reason. Submissions are free.
Corrections and removal
If something about you or your work is wrong, or you’d like a credit, photograph or piece taken down, email us. We’ll look at every request and reply as quickly as we can.
Other sites
We link to spaces, studios, Instagram and other sites. We don’t control them and aren’t responsible for what they contain or how they handle your information.
Liability
As far as the law allows, we aren’t liable for any loss that comes from using the site or relying on what it says. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can’t be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
Changes and law
We may update these terms, and the date at the top will change when we do. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction.
Privacy
OhMy! Studio Limited is the controller of the personal information described here. We only collect what we need to run the collection, and we never sell it or use it for advertising.
When you submit a space or a credit
The form asks for the space, your name or studio, your part in it, a link to the work, your email address and anything else you’d like to add. We use these to check the submission with the space, to publish the credit if it goes live and to reply to you. We rely on our legitimate interest in running an accurate, credited collection. Your email address and notes are never published.
When you email us
Spaces and makers often send details and photographs by email instead. We use what you send in the same way: to check it, to publish what goes live and to reply to you. Your email address is never published.
When you sign up to Sightlines
If you sign up to Sightlines, our newsletter, we keep your email address to send it to you, because you’ve asked us to. Every email has a link to unsubscribe, and once you do we stop sending it.
People and studios we credit
Each piece names the people and studios behind the space, with their role and links to their public website or Instagram. This comes from submissions, from the spaces and from what’s already public. We publish it because crediting makers is the point of the collection. If you’re credited and would rather not be, or something is wrong, email us and we’ll correct or remove it.
Visits to the site
We use Plausible Analytics to count visits and see which pages are read. It doesn’t use cookies, doesn’t collect personal information and doesn’t follow you across other sites. We only ever see totals, such as page views, referring sites, countries and device types. Netlify, which hosts the site, processes your IP address to deliver pages and keep the site secure, as every web host does.
Who handles it for us
Netlify hosts the site and receives form submissions. Its servers are mainly in the United States, and transfers are covered by the UK International Data Transfer Addendum and the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
DatoCMS stores the published content, including credits. It is based in Italy and keeps data in the European Union.

Each acts on our instructions under a data processing agreement. We also use email to reply to you and to contact spaces and makers about their pieces.
How long we keep it
Published credits stay for as long as the piece is on the site. We keep submissions and emails as a record of where each credit and photograph came from. If you’d like yours deleted, email us and we’ll delete it, along with anything published from it.
Your rights
Under UK and EU data protection law you can ask to see the information we hold about you, have it corrected or deleted, object to how we use it or ask us to limit it. Email us and we’ll reply within a month. If you’re not happy with how we’ve handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
