Heckfield Place
Hook, Hampshire, United Kingdom · Virtuoso · 2026 benefits

A beautiful Georgian family home lovingly restored to its historic origins, Heckfield Place is at the heart of a bountiful 438-acre estate. Less than an hour from London the estate has been rewoven, connecting a 46-bedroom House and grounds in this secluded corner of Hampshire. Resolutely natural, elegantly evolving, this is a living place centred on sustainability and a forward-thinking view on the relationship with the land. Everything is rooted in the estate’s rich soil, including the biodynamic Market Garden and organic Home Farm, walled gardens and 500-tree orchard that fuel the House's food and drink.

The 438-acre estate is blanketed in ancient heathers and woodlands, with two lakes and walled gardens for contemplative strolls. A biodynamic Market Garden and organic Hom Farm provides fresh produce and honey for chef Skye Gyngell to work her Michelin-starred magic, as well as herbs for healing treatments in The Bothy by Wildsmith.
