Overview

Design-savvy parents will adore the Whitehouse, a beautifully restored Georgian country house scattered with contemporary classic furniture and art, and a laid back, family-friendly attitude. The cool interiors, well-stocked house bar and inspired menus are faultless, whilst the 'can do' attitude to kids food, tepee and club house hidden amongst the spacious lawned grounds, and, best of all, the child-friendly screenings in the funky bean-bag filled cinema room will be a big hit with kids of all ages.

Guest bedrooms feature huge and hand-made wooden beds, some as large as 7ft wide, cool wall coverings, Frette linens and bathrobes and gorgeous custom-blended toiletries, which come in full size bottled for use in the bathrooms -room 5's bathroom is the size of an average hotel room ...read more inside

Overview [continued]

... and has often been transformed by guests into a tots bedroom. The toiletries also come in sample sizes as part of the nightly turn-down service. Dad-friendly gadgets come in the form of 42" flatscreen TVs, full SKY HD, DVD players, IPod docks, CD players and Nespresso coffee machines alongside kettles, locally blended teas and chiller stuffed with wines, beers, juices, snacks and complimentary milk and water. In the shared hallway, a huge chest stuffed with DVD classics, latest releases and kiddie favourites, along with the large in-room flatscreens, make lazy morning or evening film screenings a very tempting proposition.

Whilst most guests relax in the screening room or one of the cosy lounges with (safely screened) open fire places and huge comfortable arm chairs or chaise lounges, co-owners and hosts Matthew and Tamara are always on hand offering cocktails, soft drinks or delicious cappuccini from their impressive barista-kit. Partner in crime, Ali, cooks up a storm in the kitchen with an inspired menu based on fresh local produce and Mediterranean influences. The unusual but totally delicious herby popcorn and nuts served with nightly aperitifs is typical of her imaginative creations. Parents can bring their own baby monitors to enjoy long evenings in the restaurant, bar and lounges which are just a flight of stairs from bedrooms, but can also enjoy meals in their rooms, or pre-book babysitting – although, with possibly the area’s best restaurant in-house, there’s little need!

Outside the spacious lawned garden is safely enclosed and, with the exception of a small pond set back from the main garden, lends itself very well to babies and toddlers finding their feet, whilst older tots will adore the tepee and 'club house' (TBC) stocked with a small selection of toys and slightly screen by hedges, giving it a den-like feel.
