Look South with today's Groupon at the Legacy Botleigh Grange Hotel. Choose from the following options:

The Hotel
Hiding 56 suites behind its sunnily white-washed exterior, the Botleigh Grange Hotel marries traditional styles with four star splendor in the heart of rural Hampshire. AA rosette-winning treats are plated up daily at the glass-domed restaurant, in which the hotel chefs combine international recipes and some locally sourced produce to cook up an eclectic menu. Complementing the fresh country air with leisure and fitness facilities, the hotel’s Lakeside spa boasts features from monsoon showers and hot tubs to an infinity pool, although it is yet to be decided if the pool actually goes on forever.

The Stay
A glass of sparkling wine begins retreats with a toast to countryside lounging, while a classic cream tea of scones and cakes adds a touch of tradition to proceedings. Set down in an en suite double room complete with Wi-Fi while prepping taste buds for a three course meal. To be taken on the first evening in The Dining Room, the dinner may feature contemporary plates such as flash-fried calamari with chorizo sausage, chicken breast stuffed with black pudding and apple, and indulgent desserts including sticky toffee pudding and apple frangipane tart. One nifty spa and leisure day pass gives free-reign to workout and unwind in the gym, pool or sauna and steamroom, and additional pampering can be had with a 20% discount on all Lakeside spa treatments.

Groupon Recommends
Straying off the beaten track, consider dipping into the ArtSway Gallery, where a rotating collection of local and international artworks are displayed in a unique New Forest space. A taste of the high-life can be enjoyed at The Southampton Hall of Aviation where a vast collection of vintage aircrafts can be explored, along with the considerable sky-gliding heritage of the Hampshire coast. Naturally rich in waterways, wildlife, and rugged terrain, the Hampshire countryside can offer the discerning thrill-seeker a slew of outdoors activities such as horse riding, river-rafting, and coarse fishing, while Southampton’s vibrant nightlight and shopping tempts others to stay inside.



Transport
Trains: Low-cost trips can be made from London Waterloo, London Victoria, Manchester Piccadilly, Cardiff Central, and Glasgow Central. The hotel is roughly 5 miles from Southampton Parkway Station.
Road: Hotel is accessible by taking the M27 to Junction 7, before following signs to Botley on the main A334.

Groupon Top Tip
When strolling the New Forest, keep an eye on the skies, as Red Kites, Hen Harriers, and rare species of bird are sometimes glimpsed in the region.

 

Reviews

The country setting and spa amenities made a relaxing trip for many guests of the Botleigh Grange Hotel, although some found the rooms slightly dated. Users on LateRooms scored the hotel an impressive 5/6 stars, while reviews on TripAdvisor were also encouraging.

We had a wonderful view of the lake and grounds. Very quiet. Staff very friendly and helpful. Spa and restaurant excellent. Good position for visiting sites in area; Beaulieu, New Forest, Exbury Gardens. Will definitely go back again.

The furniture was traditional and comfortable rather than modern and uncomfortable, the bar was stylish, the bedroom and bathroom were spacious and well maintained and the service throughout was excellent. The breakfast was comprehensive and the Full English could not have been better. The staff in the breakfast room were very helpful and attentive.
