5-star luxury country house hotel with Michelin-starred dining

Location

Hambleton Hall is situated on the peninsula above Rutland Water in central England. This exquisite hotel is approximately two hours by car from London and accessible via nearby rail stations such as Peterborough and Kettering. Guests can explore the surrounding Midlands and enjoy picturesque views of nature.

Dining

The on-site dining room specializes in Michelin-starred cuisine, offering a menu that changes daily based on market availability. Head Chef Charlie Jones crafts dishes using fresh, locally-sourced ingredients like game and seafood delivered daily. Guests can enjoy a sophisticated dining experience for lunch and dinner, with a suggested smart dress code.

Rooms

Each of the hotel's rooms is uniquely decorated and designed for comfort, providing a home-away-from-home experience. Accommodations include a combination of luxurious king-sized beds, en-suite marble bathrooms, and stunning views of Rutland Water. The Croquet Suite offers additional space, featuring a private terrace and a sitting room.

Wellness and Recreation

Hambleton Hall boasts an outdoor heated pool available from early May to mid-September, offering relaxing views over Rutland Water.

The hotel requests pets remain outside of the dining areas while providing designated areas for their comfort. Owners can inquire about supplies such as bedding, food bowls, and leads during their stay.

Highlights

Dining: Michelin-star menu with locally-sourced ingredients

Rooms: Unique accommodations with stunning views of Rutland Water

Wellness: Outdoor heated pool with seasonal availability

Location: Scenic grounds covering 17 acres alongside Rutland Water

“This former hunting lodge delivers a deeply refined country house experience, with impeccably kept gardens and rooms that echo the property's historic charm, all set against the backdrop of Rutland Water. While the kitchen consistently impresses with its creative, locally sourced dishes, a slight lag in bar service on one occasion suggests that even a well-oiled machine can occasionally falter under pressure. Nevertheless, the attentive staff and overall sense of elegant tranquility make it a distinguished choice for a special occasion.”
