There's something to tickle all tastes on this grand country estate in Hertfordshire, where a sense of decadence is not just an aesthetic, but an all-encompassing approach.
Food & Travel, July 2024Today the splendid Georgian house that is The Grove — along with its attractive contemporary addition — offers all the charms of a country-house luxury hotel, an absurdly short ride from the capital. And we mean all the charms: not just afternoon tea and a wander in the garden, but everything from nature trails and spa treatments to golf, tennis, even archery.
Guide Michelin, April 2024It’s wildly ambitious to create a space that could appeal to families, golf enthusiasts, locals, Londoners and Hollywood A-listers alike, but the hotel’s sheer size makes it possible.
