Set within 12 acres of gardens in the South Cotswolds, Whatley is a five-star country house hotel where time moves at a gentler pace. Beyond the tree-lined drive, discover individually designed rooms and suites, thoughtful hospitality and experiences shaped by the character of the house and its surroundings.

A place to unwind

At the heart of the hotel, Aquarias Spa offers space to pause, recharge and reconnect. Explore the thermal suite, hydrotherapy pool, heated stone recliners and salt scrub showers, or take time for a restorative treatment with our spa partners, Gaia and Sothys. Whether you are visiting for a spa break or simply looking to slow down, it is an invitation to step away from the everyday.

Food with a sense of place

Dining is an integral part of the Whatley experience. The Dining Room, awarded one Michelin Star and four AA Rosettes, is led by Executive Chef Ricki Weston. The menus celebrate creativity, seasonality and a thoughtful approach to ingredients, with sustainability woven into the kitchen and gardens. From honey gathered from our own bees to produce grown in the Kitchen Garden, the surrounding landscape plays its part in what reaches the table.

For a more relaxed and sociable experience, Greys holds two AA Rosettes and offers an informal approach to dining, with sharing plates and dishes designed to be enjoyed at your own pace. Comfortable banquette seating, a welcoming bar and a feature fireplace create a setting for leisurely lunches, relaxed dinners and time spent together.

Meetings with room to think

Away from the pace and distractions of the office, Whatley Manor offers a distinctive setting for business meetings, corporate gatherings and team retreats. Easily accessible yet surrounded by countryside, it brings together dedicated meeting spaces, attentive service and opportunities to pause between sessions.

The self-contained Stable Suite features a main boardroom, three gallery rooms and a pantry stocked with refreshments. Flexible spaces support a range of meeting formats, from focused board meetings to collaborative workshops and smaller corporate events.

With 23 individually styled bedrooms and suites, Aquarias Spa, a gym, 12 acres of gardens and two distinct dining experiences, delegates can make the most of their time together both in and beyond the meeting room.

Our corporate booking options include:

• Day Delegate Rate
• 24-hour delegate package

 Well connected, wonderfully removed

Situated on the edge of the South Cotswolds, Whatley Manor is approximately 20 minutes from Junction 17 of the M4, making it convenient for delegates travelling from across the region and further afield. Chippenham railway station is around 25 minutes away by car, with Bristol and Heathrow airports providing access for those travelling from further afield.

The setting offers a welcome change of pace without feeling remote, giving teams the opportunity to focus, connect and return to the working day refreshed.
