Frensham Pond Hotel

In this elegant, rural, Surrey setting, the spa at Frensham Pond Hotel adds another dimension to the experience. Amidst the historic building, the spa is a contemporary new addition fearing a 24-hour gym and fitness suite, a vitality and wellness pool with energising bubble loungers and water cannon and thalasso jet, a thermal experience area including steam room, sauna and heated loungers looking out on to the lakeside. There is also a ladies only sauna and steam room in the dedicated changing rooms.

Located on the edge of the National Trust grounds, a haven for wildlife, the views from the spa add to its sense of peace and luxury. Towels, spa robes and slippers are readily available, but the cherry on top are the treatments. In five carefully appointed rooms, therapists offer holistic treatments from British skincare brand Elemis, before inviting you to relax in a deep relaxation space.

On the edge of the Surrey Hills, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Frensham Pond Hotel is a four star destination looking out over Frensham Great Pond and surrounded by 922 acres of National Trust heathland. The hotel itself is a 15th century country house hotel with 53 rooms and suites that have been decorated in sympathetically contemporary style. Trademark views are the final flourish amidst carefully considered design, while the surrounding area adds a sense of majestic calm to your stay.

The Watermark Restaurant is the focal point for dining experiences at Frensham Pond Hotel - with floor to ceiling windows that let in the natural light and the beauty outside, it is a relaxed but elegant experience celebrating local ingredients wherever possible including Casterbridge beef, Norbury Blue cheese and eggs from local, family-run Great Hookley Farm. For drinks and lighter bites meanwhile, there is the Indigo Bar and Lounge complete with its comfy chairs and, in the winter, roaring fires as well in an environment that’s both snug and stylish.
