Holme Eden began life as an - albeit grand - family home, but has witnessed many changes in its 170-year history, The Hall remained in the ownership of the Dixons until 1875, when it passed away from the family, following the loss of its founder, Peter Dixon, In 1904, it was acquired by Mr, Liddell of Warwick Hall who subsequently bestowed the entire property on an order of Benedictine nuns, whereupon the house became known as Holme Eden Abbey, During this period, the house was adapted to suit the needs of the nuns, and served as a nunnery until 1983, when numbers of the devoted had dwindled and the order was dissolved, Fortunately, the nuns made only superficial changes to the layout and designation of the accommodation, and the house survived largely unscathed, gaining Grade II* listing in the mid-1970s.
Latterly, Holme Eden had seen service as a retirement home, but is now poised on the brink of a new golden age, restored in every detail to its former glory and ready to offer a new generation of homeowners the opportunity to enjoy its unique charms.
