Cliveden House is a privately owned 5 Red Star award-winning hotel in Hampshire and is the sister property to the world-famous Chewton Glen Hotel & Spa. Over 350 years of prominent individuals, famous parties, and scandalous affairs make up the narrative. Cliveden House, built in 1666 as a present to his mistress by the 2nd Duke of Buckingham, has remained a peak of intrigue and splendour for the privileged. It has kept loyal to its heritage while still providing a magnificent place to relax, meet, and play, with antique furnishings and historical elements.
The Grade I stately mansion, which sits on 376 acres of National Trust land, has been transformed into a magnificent five-star hotel, ready to welcome you. Stroll through a series of spectacular gardens, each with its own unique beauty, in the footsteps of dukes, earls, kings, and queens. After a day of touring our 376-acre estate, return to the hotel and reward your brave steps with a glass of Veuve Clicquot Champagne – the delicious house pour.
376 acres of beautiful Grade I listed formal gardens and forests stretch out beyond the five-star country estate. The mansion, which stands magnificently above the chalk cliffs that give it its name, boasts panoramic views of the Berkshire countryside.
The National Trust owns, manages, and carefully cares for the gardens, which include the famous Parterre, seasonal flower displays, unique topiary, and a collection of outstanding sculptures. The famous Parterre, laid out in 1855 by John Fleming, the Maze, which opened in 2011 and is perfect for big and little kids alike, Giant games in the water garden, the Octagonal temple, woodlands with a wealth of walks including a Fitness Trail, a Storybook Play Den, or the paddock with goal posts for sport-lovers and families, the Pavilion built to commemorate the Battle of Blenheim and the amphitheatre where the first recital of “Rule Britannia” was played.
