Sopwell House, a charming and family-owned Georgian manor house, nestles peacefully within 12 acres of beautiful gardens in the heart of Hertfordshire.

This historic retreat offers a warm, welcoming escape where lazy days blend with memorable nights, quick coffees with long cocktails, peaceful pampering with lively celebrations—creating the perfect setting for every occasion, from relaxing getaways to special events, all just a short journey from London.

The 126 elegant rooms and suites, including 16 luxurious Mews Suites, are individually styled with spacious comfort and thoughtful modern touches. Each features a flat-screen TV with Sky Sports, tea and coffee facilities, complimentary Elemis toiletries, and private bathrooms—many with unique layouts that reflect the building's original character and heritage.

The Brasserie serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner showcasing the finest locally sourced ingredients and comforting British classics reimagined with creative flair. Omboo offers a vibrant sharing experience inspired by the spice routes of Asia and the Far East, while the Conservatory Bar and Octagon Bar provide light meals, hot drinks, and cocktails into the night—ensuring every moment is filled with flavour and warmth.

The award-winning spa and leisure facilities invite deep relaxation with an indoor pool, steam room, sauna, hot tub, gym, fitness studio, and a curated range of treatments—designed to rejuvenate body and mind in a tranquil setting. With 19 flexible function suites, the hotel also provides inspiring spaces for meetings, celebrations, and weddings amid the estate's serene gardens.
