- Lainston House has attracted an exotic array of guests through the centuries.
Its romance and beauty spoke to Charles II and his mistress. Its landscape and parkland inspired artists and writers. And as one of England’s finest country house hotels and oozing luxury, Lainston is now a firm favourite with world leaders and stars of screen, film and stage.
- Now it’s your turn to add your name to the visitor’s book at this exquisite 17th century house.
- With a two night stay in one of Lainston’s Exclusive Junior Suites and a bottle of champagne to welcome you, you and your companion can start off your break by deciding just how lazy or active you would like to be...
- Pick up a jogging or walking trail map from reception and follow the wooden posts that guide the way, or hop on one of the mountain bikes (we dare you to try the tandem!) and explore the grounds.
Pick up a racket at reception and visit the tennis courts, throw some boules or try your hand at croquet.
- We have also arranged for you to have a tour of the kitchen gardens and the bird of prey aviaries too. Hampshire cricketer turned resident falconer Barry Taylor will introduce you personally to his magnificent winged friends.
- And while you are here, take some time out to simply sit, unwind and savour the view – our favourite spot for this is the bench in the lower court under the Yew Tree.
- You will be fortified with a full English breaksfast each morning and, in the evenings, dinner is a delicious 3 course a la carte affair in the Avenue Restaurant accompanied by a bottle of House Wine, too.
