Picturesque parkland
The grounds
The wildflower meadow in summer. Winter evenings in front of the fire. Long walks through golden autumn and the vivid bluebells of spring. This is a countryside hotel for all seasons.
Our 240-acre estate gives you plenty of space to unwind and relax in – and for the more adventurous, plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy. Who's for a game of polo?
240 acres
Private lake
Wildflower meadow
All year round
Greeting you on your arrival, our meadow is a memorable sight to behold – and it's filled with vibrant flowers in spring and summer. During winter months, see a blanket of snow cover the grounds, or wake up to crisp autumnal displays across the estate.
An edible garden
Having fresh ingredients literally on our doorstep gives us an abundance of freshly-picked, local ingredients for delicious seasonal dishes. Adam Smith loves that diners discover the beauty they witness on arrival recalled on their plate.
Nature at its finest
A walk to the outer edge of the estate rewards you with the discovery of a tranquil lake, home to our resident swan named Chukka. Explore the grounds further and discover the British wildlife that surrounds us including birds, fallow deer, hedgehogs and more.
All things equestrian
Home to many friendly horses, our equestrian centre welcomes both beginners and seasoned riders. Take a leisurely hack around the grounds, head off for a canter or try your hand at dressage ─ the choice is yours. As the only UK hotel with two professional polo fields, we offer a unique opportunity to enjoy this quintessentially English sport. The fields are managed by the prestigious Guards Polo Club, with fixtures throughout the summer including major tournaments.
Designed for those with an appetite for life, an interest in others’ stories, and a longing for meaningful experiences – this is The Edit. Let us spark your imagination and inspire your next adventure.
