A countryside escape where English charm meets quiet indulgence

Hidden in the Wiltshire countryside, Bishopstrow Hotel and Spa feels like a world slightly apart, a place of long lawns, honey-stone walls and an easy, unhurried calm. Inside, the 19th-century manor blends quiet elegance with lived-in warmth.

Each room and suite has its own character: deep rolltop baths, velvet armchairs, garden views and, in some cases, private hot tubs that turn evenings into small rituals of indulgence. The gardens unfold gently, moving from manicured lawns to wilder corners where you can wander, pause and settle into the rhythm of the countryside. The terrace becomes the heart of the day, with morning coffee in soft light and a glass of wine at dusk as the fields turn golden.

Dining carries the same thoughtful spirit. The bright, contemporary restaurant draws on local farmers and the flavours of Wiltshire, serving seasonal dishes that feel honest and comforting. For more intimate moments, the glass dining domes scattered through the gardens transform dinner into a private experience under the night sky.
