Here Comes Another Country Retreat For Londoners, And This One's For Musicians

Where: Heckfield, Hampshire , United Kingdom, RG27 OLD

First there was Coworth Park, then came Waldorf Astoria's Syon Park Hotel and now there's another country retreat in the works: Heckfield Place, a luxury retreat opening in Hampshire. The new retreat will be a “world-beating” 5 star country hotel (that's some fighting talk) following a multi-million pound facelift.

Heckfield Place which is due to open in April 2012 will have 70 rooms, a sports centre, recording studio, cookery school, wine academy, dance studio and swimming pool and spa. It sounds a bit like a boarding school for adults to us and with all of these features it will no doubt be filled with boarding school types. The idea, apparently, is that musicians will come here to record an album so if you fancy yourself as a groupie you know where to stay.
