Care
Quiet, consistent oversight of the house, its maintenance and the details that protect it over time.
About
Quiet, consistent oversight of the house, its maintenance and the details that protect it over time.
Every arrival considered: cleaning, linen, stocking, flowers and the practical touches that make a home feel ready.
Private dining, hosted stays and guest care shaped around the house, the people in it and the way they want to spend their time.
One discreet point of contact, supported by trusted housekeepers, trades, chefs, hosts and local specialists.
Our mission
A well-run house is more than a list of jobs. It needs someone who notices what matters, understands the owner's standards and brings the right people together.
Our role is to remove the day-to-day burden while protecting the character of the home and making every stay feel considered.
Behind The Private House
The Private House was founded by Charlie Hawkings-Byass, drawing on a background across private households, luxury hospitality and private dining.
The idea is simple: bring the standards, attention to detail and anticipation of good hospitality into the everyday care of a private home.
What we do
We shape the service around each property: from year-round oversight to the preparation and hospitality surrounding a particular stay.
Tell us where it is, how it is used and what you would like taken care of. We will shape the right level of support around it.
