• The estate is ideal to stroll around and take in the countryside (go ahead and walk into Windsor Great Park and keep an eye out for deer). While Coworth Park is lovely all year long, in the springtime it is resplendent with flowers and greenery.
• Because Coworth Park’s main restaurant is celebrated and perennially popular with both guests and non-guests, you will want to book in advance.
The Rooms
• Wherever you choose to rest your head, the décor emits a sense of serenity with neutral tones and English smoked oak flooring paired with modern touches such as Bang and Olufsen TVs and Nespresso machines.
• The bathrooms here are are true treat with heated floors, rainfall showerheads and countryside vistas. Baths vary from room to room — some have copper soaking bathtubs, while others have deep marble-ensconced tubs.
• Each guest room at Coworth Park is unique, whether it’s within the warm, charming Georgian-style Mansion House or the chic, more contemporary refurbished stables.
The Restaurants
• Choose from three spots to eat: the Restaurant at Coworth Park for classic fine dining dishes with a modern twist, The Barn for comfort food and a rustic atmosphere, and The Spatisserie for lighter bites and afternoon tea.
• Inside the Mansion House you'll find the Restaurant at Coworth Park, plus a The Bar at Coworth Park (serving a wide range of bespoke cocktails) and the Drawing Room, which hosts afternoon tea and lighter meals.
• The Barn is located next to the converted stables and cottages and has atmosphere to spare — it is housed in an original barn frame and has a stone fireplace and a picture windows that you can see the estate's polo fields through. The seasonal brasserie-style dishes make this a casual, but still genteel, spot for a bite.
