She was born in 1905 to the 2nd Earl of Lytton and Pamela Frances Audrey Chichele-Plowden; during her father's tenure as acting Viceroy of India in 1926 she became acting Vicereine as her mother, who would have held that role, was in England.[2]

It was while she was in India that she met and married (in 1930) Cameron Fromanteel Cobbold, future Baron Cobbold. She inherited Knebworth House following the death of her father in 1947; both her brothers predeceased their father. Hermione Cobbold was an energetic supporter of many charities and local organizations such as the YMCA. She died in Hertfordshire at the age of 99, survived by her daughter and two sons. Her elder daughter had died in 1937.[3]
