New Hall Hotel & Spa
At 800-years-old, New Hall is a fine example of late Medieval architecture with 26 acres of richly timbered land, thick pasture and elegant gardens. Features include crenellated stone towers and the most enchanting detail - a moat complete with draw-bridge. Originally designed to keep out intruders, today the moat plays home to a wide variety of wildlife including migrating ducks and geese and some of the largest carp to be found in the Midlands.
With gorgeous features such as oak-panelled walls, welcoming open fires, ornate ceilings and views over the moat and gardens, the hotel is a magical place for romantic occasions. Public areas with their antique-style furniture and mullioned stained-glass windows create a historical ambience. Tie the knot in the Great Chamber, which has tall ceilings, sparkling chandeliers, fine paintings adorning the walls and is suitable for 75 witnesses to your 'I dos' or 50 loved ones for your wedding breakfast.
The Garden Pavilion, a semi-permanent marquee that can be transformed to suit most wedding themes, is ideal for your first meal as newlyweds with 150 of your friends and family and additonal space for 50 evening revellers.
We love... the spa and health club, with three treatment rooms offering pampering and beauty services, sauna, steam room, and swimming pool.
