So, you get the idea of where I was coming from when I booked myself into a spa break at Lythe Hill. Now this isn't really my thing. Some beauty pampering can just seem like a waste of money to me and sometimes I just don't have the patience to sit still and endure a treatment. But I was in desperate need of some relaxation, so I gave it a try. Lythe Hill Hotel is just outside Haslemere, which is a short train journey from London. Take the briefest of tax journeys and you arrive at a number of small, lovely buildings set in amidst the trees and rolling hills of the Surrey countryside. ...Yes, you read me right, "buildings". So, this is not your typical hotel. An old Tudor house faces the road and this is where the restaurant and bar are located. The reception is a little further down driveway and to the right Ask for a password to access Internet, although it is quite a slow connection. ...You can also get there by helicopter, they have a helipad on the premises too! My building was down a little pathway to the left, next to a green by a "lake" - it's really more of a large pond, but very serene and relaxing. I loved it! My room was HUGE! I couldn't believe my luck! The bathroom was just as big too. I really don't think my pictures did the place justice. Decorated in neutral tones with painted wood panelling. I booked the place on special offer and really got value for money. Enter the front of the Tudor house and through a small narrow hallway you come to the bar which is in the modern extension of the building. It's small but adequate and overlooks the green and the "lake". The restaurant is split between 2 rooms. 1 is in the old building with dark wood panelling, the other is in the modern extension, again decorated in neutral tones. The waiting staff were excellent, friendly, charming and accommodating. The food was great too, although their weren't quite as good and their savory dishes. There's a decent selection of wines and the Maitre d' is happy to offer recommendations. The beauty spa is in a modern building further down from the Tudor house with a swmming pool, sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, etc... The beauticians were young, diminutive and very pleasant. I have to admit some of the treatments I thought a waste of time but the Body Ritual was well worth it and achieved exactly what I wanted. De-stressed and untensed, I was reluctant to go back to London.

The rooms are small, but comfortable, and the hotel has a strange nautical theme. The house, and associated buildings are actually from a navy college which used the area - and admittedly are not to everyones tastes. However, the location is excellent for both the South Coast and London - and everywhere in between. I wouldn't pay the full price to be honest, but de vere often have cheap deals, and this is a cut above the travelodges and travel inns!

Didn't eat dinner there but the breakfast was great. The room was modern and comfortable although the bathroom could have done with a refurb, but it was clean. Unfortunately there was a wedding on while we were there, and we were probably the only guests not with the wedding party. Far be it from me to begrudge anyone a great wedding reception (and it looked it) with partying long into the night, but you'd have thought that when we booked, the hotel might have asked us if we were staying for the wedding (alarm bells) or warned us about it, and also perhaps wouldn't then have put us in a room directly over the bar? Sadly not. Hence the 3 stars. The hotel, whilst having some great deals on rooms, clearly does a lot of weddings, being a deVere Venue. So I would recommend checking when you book, to ensure a good nights' sleep.
