Beaverbrook
A quintessentially English estate overlooking the Surrey Hills, a place to indulge, relax, and celebrate, and the former home of celebrated publisher and backstage politician, 1st Baron Beaverbrook. There's more to the Beaverbrook Estate than meets the eye with this secret gem of a British resort, just a stone's throw from both Heathrow, Gatwick, Central London and the south coast.
The story of the Beaverbrook’s most famous resident and his friends remains interwoven within the fabric of the Estate, including Winston Churchill, a well-known friend of Lord Beaverbrook. Lord Beaverbrook hosted the great and the good during his time here, and our visitor’s book reads like a 'Who’s Who' of the 20th century. Guests are able to immerse themselves in history, art, culture, decadent spa, enviable resort facilities, rolling countryside, four on-site restaurants and the very best of the British countryside experience with complete convenience of location.
Beaverbrook offers a luxury experience for couples, families and multi-generational groups alike, with a well-equipped Children's Club with games and toys, as well as a hosted Kid's Club by the well-known entertainers Sharky & George, treehouse in the woodlands and outdoor play area, family bikes, and court sports. Families can enjoy family-friendly hours in our pools and restaurants, so there's plenty to keep the little ones busy.
The Surrey Hills offers a true British countryside setting, and is labelled 'The Beverley Hills of England' with it's enviable location to Central London and both major UK airports, offering the perfect idle for visitors. The local area is ideal for exploring a jewellery box of local highlights. Guests can explore Dorking nearby, ducking in and out of a plethora of antiques and vintage shops, or can head to the village of Shere, the filming location in 'The Holiday' for a traditional pub lunch. Explore the local vineyards of Albury Estate, who produce Beaverbrook's own sparkling wines, sample gin at Surrey's Silent Pool Gin Distillery, head towards Hampton Court to explore Henry VIII's palace, attend the races at Epsom or Ascot, or enjoy an exclusive tour with the Head Curator of Chartwell House, the home of Winston Churchill. For those that enjoy hiking and cycling, Box Hill is at the edge of the estate, a local view point that was once a picnic spot for the Victorian ladies of London and most recently the cycling route for the 2012 Olympics.
The onsite art collection boasts a Gerhard Richter tapestry, as well as pieces by Jean Cocteau and photographer John Swannell. Discover work by renowned stained glass artist Brian Clarke MBE across the estate, with his nature-themed work adorning The Coach House Spa, enveloping spa lovers with inspiring colour.
