Lucknam Park
Grand English country house with genuine warmth — antiques, open fires, four-poster beds, and a formal fine-dining restaurant balanced by a relaxed all-day brasserie. Not stuffy, but definitely old-money comfortable.
The Grand Master Suites (Coral and Tower variants) are the original master bedrooms of the house — four-poster beds, fireplaces, and marble bathrooms. Worth the upgrade for a special occasion.
Why It Matters
One of England's most complete luxury escapes: Michelin-starred dining (21 consecutive years under Chef Hywel Jones), an award-winning spa with indoor/outdoor pools, a working equestrian centre with 12 horses, and 500 acres to roam — all within striking distance of Bath. Awarded 3 Michelin Guide Keys in 2024 and part of the Emblems Collection by Accor.
A 1720 Palladian mansion sitting within 500 acres of private Wiltshire parkland, Lucknam Park is the kind of place where you arrive down a mile-long avenue of beech and lime trees and immediately feel like you're somewhere completely removed from normal life. Six miles from Bath, it operates as a 5-star country house hotel with a Michelin-starred restaurant, a serious spa, and a full equestrian centre — all on the same estate. The house itself was a private family residence until 1987 and that sense of lived-in grandeur is still very much present.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Classic Room
The entry point at Lucknam Park — and still very much a luxury experience. Compact at 15 sqm, these sit in either the main country house or around the tranquil courtyard. Each is individually decorated with lovingly restored antique furniture. Think cosy, not cramped — Egyptian cotton bedding, bathrobes, slippers, flat-screen TV, and DAB radio. 24-hour room service included.
Double (4'6" or 5' choice) · 15 sqm
Country Room
A step up from Classic in size and outlook, Country Rooms offer individually curated décor with antiques and quality soft furnishings. Located within the main house or courtyard buildings. Full 5-star amenities including Egyptian cotton linen, 24-hour room service, and complimentary WiFi.
Estate Cottages
Nine stone-built cottages dotted across the estate grounds. Sizes vary from 1-bedroom to 4-bedroom configurations, sleeping up to 6 guests. Full private facilities, daily linen and towel service. 2-night minimum year-round. Perfect for families or groups wanting self-contained space within the estate — still with full access to the hotel's spa, restaurants, and equestrian facilities.
Grand Master Suite
The top of the hierarchy — two variants named Coral and Tower. Originally the master bedrooms of the house itself, so they come with real scale and history. Four-poster beds (some needing a footstool to climb in), open fireplaces, large sitting areas, a dining table, and a writing desk. Bathrooms are finished in the finest marble. If you're doing Lucknam Park properly, these are the ones to book.
Four-PosterGrand Suite
Grand Suites are larger than Junior Suites, featuring generous living space with antique furniture and sitting rooms. Indulgent bathrooms with marble finishes. Situated in the main house with views over the estate.
Junior Suite
Spacious suites at 26–35 sqm located in the courtyard and the Rose Cottage, overlooking the exquisite rose garden. Quintessentially English in feel — fine antique furniture, sumptuous soft furnishings, and a comfortable sitting area. Walk-in shower, bathrobes, and 24-hour room service. Some interconnect for families and can accommodate children up to 12.
Queen, King, or Four-Poster (choice) · 30 sqm
Manor Room
Manor Rooms sit in the grandest part of the property — the main Palladian mansion. Larger than Classic or Country categories, with character-filled décor, period furnishings, and typically featuring views over the estate or gardens. Full 5-star amenities throughout.
