Alec Cobbe (born 1945) is an Irish designer, artist, musical instrument collector and decorator.[1]

A member of the Cobbe family, Cobbe was born in Dublin and moved to Newbridge House with his family upon the death of his father.[2] Cobbe studied medicine at Corpus Christi College, Oxford, and underwent his clinical training at the London Hospital. Cobbe gave up his study of medicine to become a painter and trained as an art conservator at the Tate. Since the early 1980s Cobbe has advised on the redecoration of historic British country houses.[3]

Cobbe donated his design archive to the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) and an exhibition was held at the V&A of his work in 2013.[4]

The Cobbe Collection, Cobbe's collection of historic musical instruments is kept at Hatchlands Park, a National Trust property that Cobbe has leased since 1984.[5]
