| The Stanwell is a luscious hotel whose every surface and fabric bursts with fruity, jewelled shades of vibrant colour. Velvets and silks adorn windows and cover plump cushions. Burnished bare boards and York stone flags create stylish floors. An eclectic mix of junkshop finds prints and antiques fill the rooms with a riot of images, and even on the dreariest winter day the spirits soar.
Dining at the award winning Stanwell House is to a very high standard and local produce is used wherever possible. Dining at night is always by the light of many candles. The pretty walled gardens is sheltered and south facing for a spot of al fresco and the conservatory is a cosy year round meeting place for dining, beverages or just plain idling. The emphasis at Stanwell is on friendly, unobtrusive yet efficient service. The ambience is gentle, romantic, decadent at times, but always relaxing. There are no dress codes.
Set within 3 acres of grounds, this 16th century Grade II listed farmhouse is a traditional, romantic getaway within a 12-minute drive of Salisbury and 5 minutes of the New Forest.
The hotel offers 5 four-poster beds across 8 comfortable, elegant rooms and a superb breakfast every morning. Complimentary internet access is available.
Enjoy the gardens where there is a trampoline and a swimming pool. There are 2 fantastic pubs in the village which offer home-cooked food and a friendly welcome.
