From Gentry to Rock & Roll

Originally built in 1771 by Captain George Sandes, Dunowen House has had many interesting owners over the years. Each generation has left its signature on the house and gardens, to be enjoyed by our guests today.

Mention Dunowen House to anyone living in the area and they immediately associate it with Noel Redding, former bass guitarist with the Jimi Hendrix Experience. For more than 30 years Noel lived here, where he entertained music legends throughout the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. After his death in May 2003, his ashes were interred in the garden and we love to think his spirit lives on at the house!

We have decorated throughout with items of rock and roll memorabilia linked to Noel Redding and Jimi Hendrix, specifically original concert posters, vintage magazines and music.
