Bishopstrow Hotel and Spa

The embodiment of an English country house- Bishopstrow Hotel and Spa is also a haven of relaxation in Wiltshire. A grand entrance opens to elegant lounges- perfect for afternoons of newspaper reading and tea sipping. Bedrooms and suites are filled with comfortable details- such as big pillowy beds- garden views from huge Georgian sash windows- and free-standing rolltop baths. After a morning of exploring the extensive grounds- you might choose lunch on the terrace in summer- or enjoy a bite in the contemporary restaurant- looking out of floor-to-ceiling windows as you dine. If a classic afternoon tea is on the cards- settle into your spot on a sofa- or head out to a dining dome in the garden- where you can feast al-fresco while protected from the elements. When dusk falls and the candles are lit- the private bubbles become extra special. During your stay- make a beeline for Halycon Spa if relaxation and wellness is top of your list; two swimming pools- a Thermal Suite and Rasul Mud Therapy room are among the restful spaces it offers- along with a menu of restorative treatments. To up the pace- spend some time in the Fitness Centre or stroll the extensive grounds of the hotel. Only a little further afield you can admire the ancient circle of Stonehenge- or enjoy a day at Longleat Safari Park- home to the Viscount of Weymouth. Bishopstrow Hotel and Spa is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
