Owner Anselm Guise

Elmore Court is a grade II listed mansion, located at Elmore in the Stroud district of Gloucestershire, England. The original building dates from between 1564 and 1588. [1]

The house has been the family seat of the Guise Baronets for nearly 800 years, first granted by John De Burg with the rent set at "One clove of Gillyflower" each year. The current owner, Anselm Guise, inherited the estate from his uncle in 2007, with the Baronetcy going to Anselm's father, Sir Christopher James Guise.

In 2008 and 2011, Elmore Court was the subject of a Channel 4 television programme presented by hotelier Ruth Watson as part of her Country House Rescue series.[2]

In February 2013, Anselm Guise's plans for a new function room called The Gillyflower at Elmore Court featured in the BBC2 TV programme, The Planners.

Elmore Court and The Gillyflower are set to open for weddings and events in November 2013.
