Luxury country house hotels across the UK

A HAVEN OF TRANQUILLITY

Step inside a country house hotel and it can be like going back in time, with elegant hallways, elaborate ceilings, sweeping staircases, grand fireplaces and plump sofas calling you to sink into them. Many of these are sensitively-restored former grand country homes that are surrounded by stunning scenery. Bedrooms are frequently individually styled, sometimes with four poster beds and always with inviting crisp bedlinen, comfortable furnishings and finishing touches demonstrating the attention to detail that puts the country house hotel in a class of its own.
If exploring helps you to wind down, these hotels are to be found in some of Britain’s most beautiful locations such as the Scottish Highlands, English Lake District, Cotswolds and New Forest. But if you prefer to be indulged within the walls of your sanctuary, many also have the opportunity for you to be pampered with the latest spa treatments.

BUCKLAND MANOR

VON ESSEN HOTELS

POA

Peace and tranquility can be found at this 13th century manor overlooking the archetypal Cotswolds village of Buckland, a smaller version of nearby Broadway but without the hordes of visitors. Its grounds feature immaculate gardens with stream, small waterfalls, croquet lawns and tennis courts. A member of Relais & Châteaux.

CHEWTON GLEN HOTEL AND SPA

CHEWTON GLEN

POA

A combination of countryside and coast makes Chewton Glen, on the edge of the New Forest, an ideal location for exploring. But within its 130 acres of grounds you'll find golf, tennis, swimming and croquet, so you might not want to leave! Whatever your choice, relaxation awaits in the spa and fine dining in the restaurant.

HAMBLETON HALL

POA

Hambleton was at one time the capital of the Anglo Saxon Kings in Rutland. Part of the original village is now under Rutland Water, but somewhere warm, dry and welcoming is this hotel where guests can still dine like kings and experience exceptional service standards.

HOLBECK GHYLL

POA

Michelin star food, lounges with open log fires, lake view rooms and a health spa add up to an oasis of calm only five minutes from Windermere. This former hunting lodge is now one of the Lake District's finest country house hotels, surrounded by many acres of woodland.

SHARROW BAY COUNTRY HOUSE HOTEL

VON ESSEN HOTELS

POA

With a breathtaking setting on the shore of Lake Ullswater, Sharrow Bay can claim a number of 'firsts'. The founding British member of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux, the hotel was where the term ‘country house hotel' was first coined and the famous British dish, sticky toffee pudding, was invented.

GIDLEIGH PARK HOTEL

GIDLEIGH PARK

POA

A breathtaking location in the heart of Dartmoor National Park means hotel guests have plenty of activities to choose from, including walking, fishing, horse riding and shooting. But they might be just as happy with a good book in the drawing room, while looking forward to dinner in the two Michelin-starred restaurant.
