TASTEFULLY DECORATED IN A QUINTESSENTIALLY ENGLISH STYLE
Occupying an 18th-century manor house on 500 acres of idyllic Hampshire countryside, the Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire is the dream country escape – and just an hour away from London.
With hundreds of acres of parkland at your disposal, days can be spent enjoying an array of outdoor pursuits. Falconry lessons, fishing, clay pigeon shooting, croquet, horse riding and boat rides on the Basingstoke Canal (which runs through the grounds) are just a handful of the activities you’ll have at your fingertips.
Children are also well catered for with treasure hunts, kite-flying and an adventure playground. Those looking to explore nearby attractions will find Windsor Castle, Farnham Castle, Salisbury and Stonehenge all within easy reach.
After a full day, the plush spa – set in the old stable block – is the perfect sanctuary with its vitality pool, sauna and crystal steam room. You can also take traditional afternoon tea in the Library, sink into one of the deep armchairs and admiring the charming views across the rolling Hampshire hills. Rooms and suites are tastefully decorated in a quintessentially English style complete with pretty floral patterns, wood furnishings and incredibly plush beds. When it comes to dining, the flagship Wild Carrot restaurant impresses with its finely crafted, seasonal menu incorporating ingredients from local markets.
