Heckfield Place, Georgian country house hotel in Hampshire, England
Heckfield Place is a Georgian country house in Hampshire, England, now operating as a hotel within grounds that include gardens, orchards, meadows, woodland, and lakes. The house itself is a Grade II listed building, meaning it is officially protected for its architectural and historic value.
The house was built in 1790 as a private family residence and remained in private hands for over two centuries. It was extensively restored before reopening as a hotel in 2018.
Heckfield Place runs a working farm that supplies its kitchen, and this connection shapes the whole feel of the property. Guests can walk through the gardens and orchards and see directly where the food on their plate comes from.
The property sits roughly an hour from London and is easiest to reach by car. Once there, visitors are best served by setting aside time to walk the grounds, as the gardens, woodland paths, and lakeside areas each take time to explore on foot.
The house has an underground screening room in its basement where cultural events take place for guests on a regular basis. The spa schedules its treatments according to the time of day, following the idea that the body responds differently depending on when a treatment is given.
