On the estate
130 acres to enjoy
Start with the simple pleasures: an indoor 17m heated pool for lengths, an outdoor heated pool for fresh-air swims, a hydrotherapy pool for easing tired muscles, and an outdoor whirlpool for warm bubbles under open sky. You will also find a steam room and cold drench showers for that satisfying hot-and-cool reset.
Seasonal produce, grown close to home
At the heart of the estate, The Walled Garden brings Chewton Glen’s relationship with its own land into focus. Sheltered by brick walls and looked after with quiet care, it is home to plants, insects, statues and the steady work that helps the gardens thrive. This is where the seasons make themselves useful. Herbs, vegetables, fruit and edible flowers are grown for the hotel’s kitchens where possible, giving the chefs produce with a pleasingly short journey from soil to plate. Alongside the gardeners, Chewton Glen’s forager helps connect the menus to what is growing, ripening and ready around the estate, so the food feels rooted in the land rather than simply inspired by it.
