Horwood House Hotel & Spa

Like to stay active? Crushing your fitness goals is a breeze at Horwood House Hotel & Spa. As part of its £6 million renovation, the hotel is home to a state-of-the-art gym, packed with top-spec Matrix Fitness equipment. Sweat it out on the cardio machines, build strength on the easy-to-operate weight machines and tone with the multi-purpose functional training equipment. 

The hotel’s grounds offer a tranquil space to stretch your legs. Whether it’s an energising power-walk or a jog through the 38 acres of gardens, you can get your steps up while soaking in the countryside views. H Spa’s 15m indoor pool provides the perfect setting for your morning laps. But if you prefer a more competitive edge to your exercise, the outdoor tennis court is a great way to get your heart rate up.

Like to keep fit while enjoying a hobby? Nearby Willen Lake is a hub for watersports, including paddleboarding and sailing. For something a little more adventurous, Snozone Milton Keynes lets you swap your walking shoes for skis or a snowboard, at this indoor slope complete with real snow.

Whenever you’re ready to sit down for a relaxed meal, Harry’s Bar & Kitchen is waiting to welcome you. Thoughtfully redesigned to complement Horwood House and its gardens, this stylish space offers a seamless blend of modern style and historic charm. Whether you’re with a group of your besties or enjoying an intimate dinner for two, Harry’s provides the perfect setting, with zoned seating areas to suit every occasion.

There’s a laid-back yet buzzing vibe here, and natural light pours through the skylight to illuminate the contemporary décor and banquette seating. Make sure you look up! You don’t want to miss that striking foliage display that stretches across the ceiling! 

Open for breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner, the varied menu celebrates classic British flavours. Locally sourced ingredients take a starring role in freshly prepared dishes. Meat eater? Don’t leave without trying a steak, aged for 30 days in a bespoke Himalayan Salt Chamber, then sliced to perfection.

The drinks selection is equally impressive, featuring fine wines, craft beers and perfectly mixed cocktails. And for those who prefer a leisurely drink outdoors, The Terrace provides a charming spot to sip, relax and soak up the countryside views.

There sure is, so pack that swimming cossie! Horwood House Hotel & Spa has a gorgeous 15m indoor pool. Long enough for laps (or just relaxing on one of the poolside tranquility loungers) the pool has a stunning gold-edged, botanical logo at one end. There’s also a small sauna for four people (or two if you want a lie-down), and a steam room with grey mosaic tiles and blue lights. 

It does, and many of our Horwood House spa deals include a night’s stay as part of your treat. Your room for the night will be one of the hotel’s 159 stylish bedrooms, each one designed with calming, earth tones and vibrant pops of colour. Classic Rooms provide a cosy and chic space for a restful night’s sleep. Executive Rooms offer extra space and a touch of luxury, while sumptuous Manor Suites, located in the Grade II listed manor house, add a touch of charm and character to your spa retreat.

Yes, it is! Horwood House Hotel & Spa goes the extra mile to ensure every guest feels welcome. H Spa has accessible treatment rooms, and there are fully accessible bedrooms at the hotel.

The Buckinghamshire countryside is packed with scenic walking trails and charming villages, while Bletchley Park, the famous World War II code-breaking site, is just a short drive away.

Some Deluxe Rooms can also accommodate a trundle bed (at an extra cost). Here with a teenager or two in tow? You’ll need to book a second room. 

Little explorers will love roaming the 38 acres of gardens, and they’re welcome to splash in the pool between 9am and 10am and 4pm and 6pm daily. And if you’ve got a spa-loving mini-me, children aged 14 can even have treatment, specifically designed for delicate skin.

Each room can host up to two pets and, while they’re free to enjoy the surroundings, they’ll need to stay on a lead in public areas. There’s even a special area in Harry’s Bar & Kitchen Restaurant for guests with dogs so you can both dine in style.
