LUX Spring 2018

90 made to ensure that all the modern convivences are also on offer. As such, visitors can enjoy the use of Bamford toiletries in the bathroom, and books, desks and other accoutrements in each bedroom. Guests are able to avail themselves of rooms in the main house, or choose accommodation in the Garden House, the smaller of the three buildings in which guests can stay. With its country-chic rooms designed by Nicola Harding, this is a charming and cosy bolthole. The cottage-feel of this 11-bedroom house is enhanced by its selection of vintage furniture, roll-top baths, floral prints, patchworks and even pre-loved Penguin books, all of which lend it an air of homely hospitality. For those who are looking for something a little more rustic, the estate will soon be able to offer accommodation in its Coach House Cottages, which will have adjoining rooms for extra space and ease for those travelling as a family or group. Situated beside the hotel’s Spa, the cottages will be ideal for those who want easy access to indulgent pampering, so that they leave this pastoral paradise in feeling thoroughly rejuvenated. Designed by one of the world’s finest glass architects and artists, Brian Clarke, and inspired by the English countryside, the Coach House Spa, due to be completed later this year, will offer a range of techniques from around the world, all inspired by the healing power of plants and utilising the best natural English products on the market. For those in the mood for sustenance after a day spent indulging, there are a range of options for dining and drinking to suit every palate. Transporting guests back to the roaring 20s is the Parrot Bar, the colourful art deco inspired bar which offers a combination of classic and modern cocktails, as well as a vast selection of bar snacks and even cigars.
