Lucknam Park

Type: Hotel

Lucknam Park is a magnificient listed Palladian mansion set in 500 acres of extensive parkland. Dating from 1720, Lucknam Park nestles peacefully in a tranquil corner of Southern England just 6 miles from the World Heritage Site of Bath.

Since the stunning multi-million pound refurbishment, the eternal elegance of the house has been enhanced with majestic antiques and fine art, sourced from Christies & Sotheby's. These help to produce a luxury country house experience whilst maintaining a warm welcoming ambience.

Individually designed, the 41 bedrooms which include 13 impressive suites provide a luxurious foundation for a truly indulgent break. Lucknam is a perfect retreat and offers an outstanding spa, glorious historic surrounding, classically designed gardens, its own unique equestrian centre as well as an award winnning gourmet experience.

Following the award of our 5th Red Star for Excellence by the AA and the 5 Star Gold Award by Visit Britain in October 2006, Lucknam Park has been recognised with a number of prestigious awards and accolades including the retention of the Michelin Star in 2008, the Hotels Cateys Hotel Chef of the Year Award 2007 (under 250 covers), awarded to Head Chef Hywel Jones, as well as the prestigious Relais & Chateaux and Moet & Chandon Welcome Trophy 2007. Lucknam Park has been a member of Relais & Chateaux since 2000.

Lucknam Park, a proud member of Relais & Châteaux is delighted to announce the opening of their spectacular new Spa on 11th November 2008.

This eagerly-anticipated Spa sets a new standard of luxury. There will also be nine treatment rooms and extensive thermal cabins including Japanese Salt, Amethyst Room, Aromatic Steam, Sauna and Tepidarium.

Lucknam Park has appointed French spa specialists Anne Semonin and Carita to supply luxurious, indulgent and innovative skin care products for the new Spa.

In addition the Spa will feature an open kitchen with a wood-fired oven. The Brasserie will serve healthy and nourishing dishes prepared from local ingredients: all under the direction of Michelin Star chef Hywel Jones.
