Zarezervuj si to, pokud You want the ultimate 'posh wellies' countryside escape where the crowd is as curated as the cocktail list.

Proč to lidé milují

  • The original Cowshed Spa with its rustic-luxe treatment rooms
  • Heated indoor-outdoor infinity pool that stays open year-round
  • Legendary Sunday roasts in The Orangery overlooking the grounds

Rychlý přehled: It’s a private members' club first and a hotel second, so expect to pay a premium for the privilege of rubbing shoulders with London's media elite.

Recenzoval @ginagoesto: I felt like I stepped into a period drama here. The gardens are immaculate and having lunch on the terrace with that countryside view was the highlight of my summer. It’s the perfect escape from the city noise.

The hype

The service is relaxed but attentive (no uniforms), and the grounds are absolutely stunning.

Reality check

The Main House rooms can be noisy due to the bar below and creaky floorboards; if you want silence, book an outbuilding.

  • You appreciate 'shabby chic' done with an unlimited budget
  • You want a hotel where you can wear muddy boots and a silk dress in the same day
  • You are a foodie who loves farm-to-table dining (literally from the Walled Garden)

Čistota & Údržba

8.5
  • Housekeeping: Generally excellent, with twice-daily service (turndown included).

  • Linens & towels: High quality, fluffy robes and crisp sheets.
  • Odors & scents: Smells amazing—signature Cowshed essential oils everywhere.

5 věcí, které byste měli vědět, než se vydáte

  • 💡The 'shabby chic' furniture is sometimes actually just shabby (worn velvet, scratched wood).

  • 💡The Main House floorboards are incredibly loud; you will hear your neighbors walking.

  • 💡Room service is available but can be slow during peak dinner times.

  • 💡The 'Walled Garden' isn't just for show; you'll likely eat vegetables picked from it that morning.

  • 💡You might spot a celebrity, but the unwritten rule is you must pretend not to notice.
