The Retreat at Elcot Park

The Signet Spa at The Retreat at Elcot Park is a world unto its own, offering health, wellbeing and luxury style within the 16-acre grounds of the country house hotel. Take a dip in the heated outdoor infinity pool, revive in the hydrotherapy pool, refresh in the Himalayan salt sauna and aroma steam room or sweat it out in the state-of-the-art Matrix Gym.

Alongside the facilities, the spa offers a collection of treatments from experiences like the salt flotation pod to rituals including facials and massages using the acclaimed GAIA product line. From a detoxifying body scrub and mud mask to a rejuvenating jade facial, mother-to-be massages to restorative rituals, it's a holistic feast of experiences to enjoy. Capping it all off, the Sequoia Hair & Nail Salon is tucked away in the Courtyard for hair, waxing, manicures, pedicures and more.

The perfect blend of British sensibility and elegant authentic luxury, The Retreat at Elcot Park is an enchanting Georgian country house hotel and spa that has taken all its history and reimagined it for 21st century hospitality. Nestled into the North Wessex Downs between Newbury and Hungerford, it's surrounded by 16 acres of grounds in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Behind the red brick walls, rooms and suites are soulful, warm and inviting, combining heritage colours and details with contemporary twists from Classic Rooms to Family Rooms and the spectacular Sutton Suite.

There are two beautiful restaurants at the hotel, offering entirely contrasting experiences. The 1772 Brasserie is named after the year the original house was built and incorporates the breathtaking Orangery. They serve all meals in a welcoming space, and on Fridays a local pianist sets the mood as you settle into the weekend. Meanwhile, Yu is their pan-Asian restaurant, where you're surrounded by woven fans, bamboo-style framed mirrors and warm lighting as you choose handmade sushi dishes from their taster or a la carte menus.
