A HAMPSHIRE hotel and spa has unveiled its new look following the £2m refurbishment of the venue and its 16th-century manor house.

Norton Park Hotel, Spa & Manor House, part of The QHotels Collection, has had a modern makeover.

Based in Sutton Scotney, the hotel, spa and manor house are set among 54 acres of Hampshire countryside.

Improvements were made across the 152-bedroom hotel and 13-bedroom manor house. Designs were overseen by independent, architectural design practice, ADS Design, to refresh and modernise the guest rooms and communal areas including an orangery, lounge and walled gardens in the main hotel.

General manager Paul Russell said: “Norton Park Hotel, Spa and Manor House is in an incredible location and its recent makeover is not only a delight to behold, but it will also ensure that we continue to offer guests the best possible experience during their stay.

“Updates to the Manor House, Tythe Barn and Norton Suite have also helped to cement us as one of the best wedding and events venues in the region and we look forward to welcoming both returning and new guests alike.”

The rural hotel offers two large function rooms and a range of smaller, modern syndicate rooms, for events of up to 300 guests. While the Manor House is equipped for away days, board meetings and wellness retreats.

The spa at Norton Park is partnered with skincare brand ELEMIS, with expert therapists on site to carry out the treatments, in addition to the sauna, steam room and indoor heated pool.
