Corse Lawn House Hotel is an elegant Queen Anne Grade II listed building, set back from the village green and fronted by an unusual ornamental pond (originally built as a coach wash into which you could drive and turn a stage and four horses) and surrounded by twelve acres of its own gardens and fields.
The house has belonged to the Hine family (of Cognac fame) since 1978, and during that time has been carefully extended, refurbished and restored to create a stunningly attractive Country House Hotel with nineteen beautiful bedrooms, all individually furnished, many with antiques, and all with private bathrooms, colour TV, telephone, hair dryer and trouser press.
The hotel still revolves around the restaurant but Baba Hine who has been chef/proprietess here for nearly thirty years, has handed over her kitchen to Andrew Poole who has worked beside her for over ten years and is keeping the food flag flying for Corse Lawn. Meanwhile Baba is running the Front of House with Gilles, David and Vikki, all of whome have been at Corse Lawn for over twelve years, and so are familiar faces to our many regulars. There is a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, which together with superb food and wine make the hotel a perfect place to unwimd and relax.
On arrival you will find your larger-than-average bedroom, filled with Hine
family antiques as well as thoughtful details such as bathrobes, a bowl of
fresh fruit, freshly ground tea and coffee and home-made biscuits, all as
standard.
There are two comfortable Drawing Rooms, a large Bistro Bar, a Private Dining Room come Conference Room for up to thirty persons, and a smaller Dining Room come Conference Room for up to twenty, as well as the delightful Restaurant seating fifty. The Hotel and Restaurant are open all year, seven days a week, (except 24th, 25th and 26th December), and breakfasts, luncheons and dinners are served as well as morning coffee. Lunch and Dinner are available in the Bistro. There is a heated indoor Swimming Pool, a Croquet Lawn and Tennis Court. Golf can also be arranged locally.
