While the typical threads that weave through this month are cold, wet and grey, the occasional spectacular days are pretty exceptional…

📸: early morning run around our beautiful 2-bedroom Clock Tower, an ideal hideaway for a break with friends.

With countless walking/running routes and many highly rated local places to eat and drink, a getaway with some of your bests in January or February doesn’t seem like such a bad idea…

Reminder… the day when lovers express their affection with greetings and gifts is just over 4 weeks away.

There are many theories about the origin of the Valentine’s Day we celebrate today, from the Roman festival of Lupercalia which celebrated the coming of spring, to the martyred priest called Valentine who befriended his jailers daughter with letters signed “from your Valentine”. Traditional gifts may include chocolates and flowers, but in our books you can’t beat the memories made with time together, away from the hustle and bustle.

We have three charming properties on our Estate that would be the perfect romantic getaway for you and your valentine. Situated just an hour outside of London and amidst a plethora of fantastic local restaurants, The Grange Hampshire serves as an ideal base for a weekend escape. Our dedicated team is readily available to provide any assistance you might require, with the latest local recommendations and tips to ensure you always have an unforgettable experience.

We know a couple of proven ways to get you over the blues of January…

1. Get planning for your next unforgettable summer holiday. Picture balmy summer afternoons drinking rose by one of our pools, playing tennis in the sun and croquet on the lawn.

2. Make the most of our seasonal pricing by booking a weekend away in the colder months at one of our properties with some of your nearest and dearest. Stride out to for some of the best pub grub you’ve ever had, then curl up infront of the log fire and feast your eyes on the latest streaming blockbuster (Saltburn anyone?).

Our homes sleep 2 - 18 people and if you need any help or assistance booking your next break away - one of our team would be more than happy to talk you through the options here and give you the best recommendations for the local area.

Shorter days, a lower sun and a drop in temperature signal the time for nature to slow down, often pause, and wait for the warmer days to start up again. Over Christmas we hope you’ll find the time and inclination to make like a sleepy hedgehog, sit back, lie back, and take the time to do some hibernating of your own.

Christmas here is usually a calm, considered but merry time, surrounded by friends and family. A time for roasts, stews and crisp country walks before curling up in front of a log fire.

With bookings now open for Christmas 2024, let us know if you’d like to spend the next one with us.

Wishing Rohita and Charles a very happy “official” 1st wedding anniversary. Due to the pandemic, they opted for a small ceremony in 2021 but celebrated in style with a big weekend party at Abbotstone a year ago today. With their friends and family staying the whole weekend in Abbotstone Farm House, they exchanged vows by the lake, drank cocktails in the walled garden - courtesy of
The Gin Tin - dined on the top lawn and partied in the marquee. It was the perfect combo.

“The best corporate day I have ever been to” was the delightful feedback we had from Philips Law, following their client's summer lunch experience with us yesterday at Abbotstone Farm House. We took them on a guided walk across the Estate, taking in a backstage tour with at The Grange, meandering through the private pleasure grounds and walled gardens of Lake House, through our species rich water meadows, to then be treated to a sumptuous lunch by the brilliant .becka team. What more could you want from a Wednesday!? We even arranged a military fly past for them! 🤣

We work with our clients to curate events that meets their needs. However, bringing people together in a remarkable setting where conversations can flow and people can get to know one another is a speciality of ours.
