About
Its name may not sound out of place in a farmyard fairytale, but The Hog’s Back Hotel is actually an imposing red-brick retreat perched high on a wooded ridge the Surrey Hills. There’s no need to huff and puff – this classic country house hotel will let you straight in for sweeping views, luxurious leisure and an indulgent spa where you can put your trotters up in style. Whether you're here to revel, relax or relish like a little piggie, this landmark on top of a landmark promises comfort and charm in equal measure.
Relax body and soul at Hog’s Back Health Club & Spa, where you can curl up on a poolside lounger, warmed by rays of sunshine streaming in through floor-to-ceiling windows. Bask in the spa bath, Finnish sauna and steam room, before melting into a TempleSpa ritual. Feeling energetic? Hit the Active Life gym for a top-to-toe workout or to take part in a group fitness class, then replenish lost calories with an afternoon tea in the relaxed elegance of the Hog’s Back Restaurant.
There’s no need to venture far from your hilltop to soak up the sights of Surrey’s rolling countryside. Sitting high on the Hog’s Back Ridge, the hotel offers panoramic views over the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a landscape steeped in natural splendour. Just a short drive away, Guildford’s cobbled streets lead to its medieval castle, while the South Downs National Park beckons with scenic trails and hidden villages. Explore historic Farnham itself, or head for adventures further afield in Legoland, Windsor or Thorpe Park.
But with so much on offer at Hog’s Back Hotel & Spa, you may not want to stray too far from your stylish surroundings. Take a seat at the bar for post-massage cocktails, perfect for sipping as the sun sets over the Surrey Hills. Explore the manicured gardens, then enjoy elegant fine dining at the Hog’s Back Restaurant.

Thought a spa break meant pressing pause on your fitness goals? Not here! Pack your trainers and activewear, because the Active Life Gym at Hog’s Back Hotel & Spa has more ways to work out than you can swing a kettlebell at.
Spacious and well-equipped, the gym offers everything you need for a full-body workout. Hit the treadmills, bikes and adaptive motion trainers for a cardio boost, or build strength with free weights and resistance machines. There’s a punch bag if you fancy letting off some steam and floor-work mats to cool-down on afterwards.
Prefer to stretch and flow? The hotel runs regular fitness classes, including yoga, Pilates and spin so you can work out with friends before unwinding in the spa. And if the great outdoors is calling, you’re in luck. Hog’s Back Hotel sits on the North Downs, surrounded by beautiful walking and cycling trails.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Hog's Back Hotel & Spa serve afternoon tea?
How do you make a luxurious spa break to Hog’s Back Hotel & Spa even more indulgent? By treating yourself to one of their decadent afternoon teas, paired with a crisp glass of something golden and bubbly.
Devour an array of dinky cakes, finger sandwiches and warm scones slathered in clotted cream, served in the hotel’s sophisticated restaurant, or out in the tranquil gardens. Not big on sweets? The savoury afternoon tea swaps the cakes for deliciously hearty bites, like sausage rolls and mini scotch eggs. Whichever you choose, it’s accompanied by fine tea, freshly brewed coffee or a cheeky glass of fizz.

Swimsuits at the ready! Hog’s Back Health Club & Spa is home to a blissfully warm indoor pool. At 10m in length, this light-filled haven has poolside loungers so you can relax after your energising dip. There’s also a bubbling spa bath, a Finnish sauna and a steam room to bask in.

Where is Hog's Back Hotel & Spa located?
This country house hotel is perched on the top of Hog’s Back Ridge – a distinctive, elevated stretch of land between Farnham and Guildford. As such, it has fabulous views. But while there are rolling hills and lush greenery as far as the eye can see, you’re still within easy access of major attractions.
The hotel is in a secluded location that’s right on the A31, making it a familiar sight for travellers heading between Surrey and Hampshire. You can visit Guildford for shopping or sightseeing at the historic castle, or head to Farnham, known for its Georgian architecture and independent boutiques. The Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is perfect for walking, cycling and soaking up nature. But for more high-octane fun there’s always Thorpe Park and Legoland Windsor.
Is Hog's Back Hotel & Spa family friendly?
Yes it is! Although you have to be 16 and above to have a treatment at the spa, Hog’s Back Hotel is designed with the whole litter in mind! Kids can splash in the pool at dedicated children’s swimming times, and two newly-refurbished family rooms can sleep families of three or four. Both rooms come with flat-screen TVs and complimentary WiFi - and you’ll find children’s menus at the restaurant.
Beyond the hotel, there’s plenty to explore. Legoland Windsor and Thorpe Park are within easy reach for thrill-seekers, while the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offers stunning walks and outdoor adventures.
Is Hog's Back Hotel & Spa accessible?
Yes it is. The hotel offers two dedicated accessible rooms, designed with step-free access, wider doorway and adapted bathrooms. Over at the health club, the spa features an accessible treatment room.
Is Hog's Back Hotel & Spa dog-friendly?
Sorry! Fido will have to sit this one out. While service dogs are welcome, Hog’s Back Hotel & Spa doesn’t welcome any other pets.
Does Hog's Back Hotel & Spa have a golf course?
Love to tee off after a treatment? While there isn’t a golf course at the Hog’s Back Hotel & Spa, you’ll find plenty of opportunities to get into the swing of
things. In fact, with first-rate courses right on its doorstep, golfers are spoiled for choice. The two nearest golf courses are Farnham Golf Club and Puttenham Golf Club, both under ten minutes away by car. Both welcome visitors on a pay-and-play basis, though it’s best to book in advance to secure a tee time.
