Cliveden House Hotel
West Berkshire, Berkshire, United Kingdom · Virtuoso
Cliveden is unique...No one could resist an invitation to Cliveden; From Churchill to Chaplin, Lawrence to Lennon. Fortunes have been made, plots hatched. History changed... One of the world's finest luxury hotels, just 40 minutes from London. This grand stately home is set in the heart of the Berkshire countryside, surrounded by 376 acres of magnificent National Trust managed Grade I listed formal gardens and parkland, a sublime escape from the city. Cliveden has wonderful panoramic views over the River Thames and is one of the finest luxury hotels near London and Heathrow Airport. This tradition of fine hospitality and entertainment continues today. Never out of fashion, Cliveden remains…
Behind its stately facade, Cliveden House hides a checkered past. Built 350 years ago for the Duke of Buckingham’s mistress and backdrop for the scandalous Profumo affair, this sprawling 48-room estate – set upon 376 National Trust-designated acres – has fostered the illustrious and the illicit. It cultivates a cultured stay with antique furnishings, period artworks, four-poster beds, and fireplaces; the meticulously tended grounds include a maze and the celebrated parterre. Take a walk through the woodlands or a dip in the pool before dining in the Cliveden Dining Room, or for a more informal experience, try The Astor Grill.
