Loved by Lainston House Hotel guests
"We were given upgraded rooms with far-reaching views, character exposed beams and a very modern bathroom with TV at the bath and top of the range fittings."
"The spa bath in the room was a real unexpected gift, the food was delicious, the grounds phenomenal in terms of beauty being upheld alongside its history, care, and pragmatic use with the kitchen garden especially."
"We explored the grounds using an interactive treasure trail that the reception staff showed us and played garden games on the lawn."

“This 17th-century country house is a sophisticated retreat near Winchester, set amidst 63 acres that include the UK's longest avenue of limes. Individually designed rooms and suites reflect the property's historical charm, while dining ranges from the award-winning tasting menus at The Avenue to wood-fired fare at The Wellhouse. I think that the on-site cookery school provides a unique draw, appealing to culinary enthusiasts seeking hands-on experience.”
