Heckfield Place

This enticing Hampshire country retreat nestles in 400 acres of picturesque gardens, ancient woodlands, and wild meadows and it’s this natural beauty that weaves through and informs every detail of the property, from the food to the decor. Skilled craftsmanship, natural materials and handcrafted furniture create a countryside charm, while Skye Gyngell’s Marle and Hearth restaurants are equally inspired by the surroundings, serving up simple yet show-stopping dishes made with locally sourced and seasonal ingredients from the estate’s biodynamic farm.

This connection to nature continues in the Little Bothy Spa, where Wildsmith products and holistic wellness therapies create a sanctuary for body and mind in serene surroundings. A curated selection of activities and experiences bring you close to that nature, whether wild swimming, joining chefs from the Green Michelin-starred Marle Restaurant to pick ingredients for a cooking demonstration, or learning the art of willow weaving.

From the intimate Friends Room to the spacious Long Room, each of the 44 rooms and suites are a sanctuary of muted, earthy tones, with woven mats, English oak floors, and handcrafted furniture adding to the quiet luxury. Thoughtful amenities such as Wildsmith Skin products and bespoke minibars enhance the feeling of home.
