The award-winning restaurant

The award-winning Oak Restaurant serves delectable British fare in quintessential country house surroundings. Food is about taste as well as impeccable presentation, however for something a little more relaxed, there’s also the Peacock Lounge for light meals and drinks. This light conservatory space is where plush furnishings with floral details sit under a majestic chandelier; and the room brings the outside in. 

Pendley Manor spa

The combination of leisure facilities and spa treatments is the cherry on top of a hotel break at Pendley Manor. Work out in the Life Fitness gym, take a dip in the tranquil lap pool, revive with a sauna and steam or relax in the Jacuzzi. In treatment rooms they also offer a variety of face and body therapies using the ESPA and Jessica product lines. From prescription facials and aromatherapy massages to manicures and pedicures, the spa is all about indulgence and tailoring treatments to suit your needs.
