Why we love it
The setting
Chewton Glen sits on the edge of the New Forest in Hampshire, a few minutes from the coast at New Milton. The hotel is a country manor surrounded by 130 acres of gardens and parkland. Barton-on-Sea Beach is under a kilometre away, so you can pair forest walks with time by the water. The setting is quiet, green and well away from town noise, which suits a slow two-night break.
What to expect
You stay in a Junior Suite, booked here on a room-only basis. The hotel runs a large spa with an indoor pool, plus an indoor tennis court and grounds you can walk straight from your door. Interiors keep the country-house feel, with soft furnishings and traditional detailing. Meals are not included in this rate, leaving you free to book dining as you like during your stay.
Things to do nearby
The New Forest National Park is on the doorstep, with marked trails and free-roaming ponies. Barton-on-Sea Beach and the cliff path are a short drive or a long walk from the hotel, and Highcliffe Beach sits about 1.2 km away. Bournemouth is within easy reach for shops and the seafront. Drivers can also reach the harbour town of Lymington for sailing and the Isle of Wight ferry.
Best for
This break works for couples who want spa time, coastal walks and a quiet country base, with the flexibility to choose where they eat each evening.
