Home House

Spear’s Review

The storied history of Home House dates back to 1773, when Elizabeth, Countess of Home, took ownership of the estate on 20 Portman Square. Two years later, she commissioned renowned neoclassical architect Robert Adam to design the house and transform it into one of the most extravagant private homes in London. It wasn’t a mission he took lightly – the house was adorned with hand-painted ceilings, an imperial staircase and a glass dome, all of which remain preserved today. 

In homage to its legacy, the private members’ club takes its cues from the Countess, who was nicknamed ‘The Queen of Hell’. When Spear’s paid a visit to the club, the mantra was: ‘there are no rules’. 

By night a haven for the hedonist and by day an opulent working and meeting space, Home House checks all the boxes for London’s young, wealthy and wild.
