Notable refurbishments received recognition from Historic England.

A dedicated wedding team helps plan celebrations, and an experienced team assists with corporate events. Convenient access to Chalfont & Latimer station allows direct travel to London in 35 minutes.

The hotel has an indoor swimming pool and sauna, along with a well-equipped gym. The 30 acres of grounds provide outdoor space for walks and relaxation, with scenic views over the Chess Valley. An electric vehicle charging station is available on site.
