New Milton, Hampshire
Where the Forest Meets Finesse
A Hampshire estate that turns staycation into something altogether more extraordinary.
Tucked into the fringes of the New Forest, Chewton Glen has long occupied a place in the imagination of those who believe that the English countryside, at its very finest, rivals anywhere in the world. A Relais & Châteaux member and holder of AA 5 Red Stars, this legendary Hampshire estate wears its accolades lightly — the emphasis here is always on the feeling of arrival, that unmistakable exhale the moment you leave the ordinary world behind. Rooms range from elegant Classic and Garden Rooms to opulent Master Suites and the gloriously indulgent Hot Tub Suites, each one a study in considered luxury.
The real conversation-stopper, however, is Chewton Glen's extraordinary collection of Treehouse Suites — the Treehouse Studio Suite, Loft Suite, Hideaway Suite and the exclusive Yews — perched among the woodland canopy like a grown-up fantasy brought meticulously to life. Pair an evening in the treetops with a Twilight Spa Evening in the award-winning spa, where the hydrotherapy pool glows like a private world unto itself, and you will understand why guests return season after season. On the estate, a championship golf course offers pastoral distraction, while The Kitchen by James Martin beckons those who wish to learn as well as indulge.
Dining at Chewton Glen is its own occasion. The Dining Room delivers fine cuisine with the grace and confidence of a kitchen that has nothing left to prove, while afternoon tea — served with beautiful views across the grounds — is the kind of quietly perfect experience that lingers long after the journey home. Whether you come as a couple seeking seclusion, a family craving space and adventure, or a golfer in pursuit of the ideal round, Chewton Glen delivers with the effortless assurance of a true English classic. Book it. Then book it again.

What They Say
“We had an excellent stay at Chewton Glen. We joined the Japanese street food class and had a great time learning to cook okonomiyaki with Jerry. When we checked in the service was great and our room was spacious. The highlight for me was our tasting menu and wine pairing chosen by Natasha. The following morning we had a bracing walk to the beach, well sign posted from the hotel and worth the effort”
“Excellent warm, friendly staff who all went out of their way to ensure you enjoyed your stay at Chewton Glen. Excellent facilities to suit all ages and wishes. Dining in the Kitchen - James Martin associated restaurant - was a little underwhelming and expected something a little more special. Dining in the main dining room at Chewton Glen was enjoyable and in very pleasant surroundings with a nice ambience.”
“A really pleasant stay this hotel. The wine service is excellent, Natasha is very knowledgeable. Holly, lovely young lady in the restaurant doing your service levels absolutely proud and helping with the 5* review. We will definitely come again”
“We visited Chewton Glen today for afternoon tea for my mums bday and we could not fault it! From the moment we arrived the service was impeccable. The food was delicious and the staff could not have been more accommodating. We have visited various other hotels in the area claiming to be 5⭐️and Chewton Glen just wipes the floor with all of them. We were looked after by Isabel who was amazing! Can’t wait to visit again.”
“On this occasion I had a Gin and Tonic Afternoon Tea, and it was faultless from the moment we arrived to when we left. Our waiter Drew, was lovely, professional, polite and helpful. The food and drinks are all delicious and beautifully served. I've been here before and stayed in a beautiful hotel suite and used the wonderful relaxing spar. All staff are wonderful and will do anything to make you feel comfortable and cared for. It's 5 star for a good reason.”
