Hotel With 500 Year Pedigree Re-Launches

 
The former home of the Earls of Clarendon and Hertfordshire’s ultimate five-star retreat, is set to relaunch on May 17th after an extensive renovation.

Set in 300 acres of verdant countryside, The Grove dates back to the sixteenth century but now boasts 215 luxurious guestrooms, the award-winning Sequoia spa and a championship golf course.

It also has unique restaurants, an original walled garden which is home to a kitchen garden, a heated outdoor pool and ‘beach’ area, plus a wide selection of meeting and event spaces.
The complete redesign has been masterminded by award-winning interiors studio, Martin Hulbert Design and incorporates all three dining spaces – The Glasshouse, The Stables and The Lounges – as well as the lobby area and all 189 West Wing guest rooms.

The refurbishment represents a significant investment for The Grove over the past two years and has been completed during lockdown. Guests can expect a transformed and elevated experience at The Grove, which will relaunch as a new hotel in late Spring, rather than a reopening of the property which closed in December.

The Blue Lounge
The Glasshouse, The Glasshouse Bar & Lobby
The Grove’s signature restaurant, The Glasshouse, has been entirely reimagined with the ultimate vision of bringing the outside in.

The Lounges and The Stables
Also part of the total design overhaul are The Grove’s much-loved Lounges, a series of characterful drawing rooms. Here, Hulbert’s team was tasked with creating three unique but cohesive spaces in which guests can relax with a cocktail or enjoy stunning views of the gardens over a traditional afternoon tea.

West Wing Bedrooms
Nightly rates at The Grove start from £370 for a West Wing Classic Room, on a room-only basis.
