Alexander House in West Sussex sits within 120 acres of beautiful grounds, and inside, "guests float through the grand, but unstuffy manor house in soft robes and slippers", says Julia Richardson in The Times. Grecian columns and marble statues line the underground swimming pool, along with hydrotherapy baths and monsoon showers, "but it's the outdoor area that really steals the show", with its wooden barrel sauna that "looks like it's been lifted straight out of Hobbiton". There is also a huge range of scrubs, mud therapies and massages on offer. Suites are spacious and quiet and the food in the hotel's three-Rosette restaurant is "absolutely delicious".
