English Countryside Ultraluxury Retreat

Thames Valley, Buckinghamshire, England

  • Executive Summary

LHA is pleased to present a rare opportunity to invest in a landmark ultraluxury wellness, hotel, and F&B destination in the heart of the English countryside — just one hour from central London. Set on the banks of the River Thames in one of the most affluent corridors in the UK, this asset benefits from an irreplaceable setting, unique entitlements already in place permitting immediate construction of a bespoke wellness facility, and a compelling multi-revenue program spanning hotel, private club membership, marina, and dining.

Location

Located on the River Thames in Buckinghamshire, this property sits roughly one hour from central London and just 25 miles from Heathrow Airport — making it effortlessly accessible for both domestic and international guests. The surrounding area is among the most affluent in the UK, with multiple Michelin-starred restaurants within 3 miles and direct waterway access to Henley and the broader Thames Valley. Competitive supply of ultraluxury wellness-focused hospitality in this submarket remains extremely limited, reinforcing the scarcity value of this asset.

Size & Scope

The property encompasses a thoughtfully composed program across over 200,000 square feet of built area, including:

– 97 total keys — a 75-key Manor House and 22 private Woodland Cottages
– World-class wellness spa, purpose-built to drive club membership and programming
– 10-slip River Thames marina with an adjoining waterside restaurant
– 6 luxury F&B venues catering to hotel guests, members, and destination diners
– Wedding and event venue
– Private club membership program integrated across wellness, dining, and marina
