Heckfield Place - Hook

My husband and I have eaten in Hearth a few times which is always an amazing experience. This time it was a friends birthday and we were keen to share this gem with them. Hearth wasn’t available so we booked the family style lunch in Marle which was exceptional.|I love how this hotel manages to harness understated class with effortless style and delicious food, all achieved with uncompromising environmental ethics. |Thank you Nicola and team for your passion and kindness.

Sunday Lunch
Eclectic artwork in elegant reception rooms, with cosy fireside bar. Excellent value Sunday lunch served by super friendly team, with carefully chosen wines by the glass. Beef from the estate outstanding, and perfect sharing plates for starters. Bravo! 🐌🐌🐌

The second visit to MARLE in 2 weeks. Outstanding restaurant in every way possible. |The place is stunning ..beautiful house..great style..and decoration everwhere..a lot of talent is evident .The staff are just brilliant..so very friendly and entertaining..staff make or break restaurants. |The food is faultless.. Green Michelin Star ..shines through in the quality of the produce..I can't fault anything..and have eaten at dozens of 3 star restaurants in UK and Europe. If you love food and appreciate the skill involved in its presentation..just go.|

Their concierge team is very responsive and they were also nice enough to allow us to reschedule our trip with one day notice due to our illness. |The place feels very calm and the room is spacious. You can tell a lot of work gone in to the design of the hotel and the rooms. Guest room is definitely enough space for a couple.|There are some minor steps so if you have any issue with stairs. Do let the hotel know so they can arrange the right room for you.|The decor is English charm but with all the modern amenities. |The menu is rather limited but each dish was excellent. |For the Bothy (Spa and the Gym), I do recommend you to book it as it is quite small. However you can always call them to ask if you can pop in. Pls note that you have to lock away your phone when you use the Spa. You can keep your phone for the gym. The gym is one of the best that I had used. |I strongly recommend the walks as they are very interesting. |We went via the Winchfield station. Uber service is pretty poor, wait was 20min and then no Uber when we tried to return. The hotel can easily arrange the taxi.|We had a lovely time and very relaxing.

Absolutely fantastic. Well done to the hotel and all the staff, we visited when it first opened and again recently and still love all the little personal touches. See you again soon.

We have visited Marle several times and each time we come we have found it to be very hit and miss. This time it was the same. The pasta starter was delicious, the beef carpaccio was totally overwhelmed by the punterella on top and the fish was quite bland. I had to send my main back as the lamb had a huge piece of uncooked fat on top of it with very greasy aubergines underneath. ||It is such a shame as we love coming here. It’s wonderful to have a drink in the bar beforehand, the cocktails are delicious and the restaurant is beautiful. The service is excellent as well. I just think that the inconsistencies with the food taste and cookery need to be addressed as we are hesitant about booking again. We live locally and it is lovely to have somewhere so special to come to.

Just an hour from London, yet a world away Heckfield Place, a lovingly restored Georgian family home that redefines the idea of a hotel.
Surrounded by 430 acres of rolling countryside, this estate is alive with nature’s rhythm. The organic Home Farm, biodynamic Market Garden, orchards, and dairy sustain not just the table but the spirit of the place itself.
Every corner of the house tells a story—elegant interiors that honor its history while remaining effortlessly warm and welcoming. Its walls, adorned with pieces from the owner's private collection, turn each hallway into a gallery, each room into a quiet masterpiece.
Time slows here, wrapped in beauty, art, and the gentle hum of nature. A celebration we’ll never forget.

The only thing we have to say that they could improve is to add and expand the references of better wines. And also the Hearth restaurant, which has a spectacular grill open to guests, should use the grill more in the dishes on the menu. We were a little disappointed by the lack of fire and smoke in the dishes, especially with the excellent raw products that they have.

We visited Hearth restaurant at Heckfield - What an absolutely fabulous afternoon. The food was outstanding, matched by wonderful knowledgable staff. Lovely atmosphere in the dining area. Highly recommend a visit here and I will definitely be returning. |Particular thanks to Alex, the ops director for superb customer service. Fantastic all round.
