This hotel prides itself on offering the highest standards of hospitality and service. A wide variety of different dishes are offered, with special menus available on request.
Heythrop Park was built in the early 18th Century and is steeped in history. Charles Talbot, the 12th Earl of Shrewsbury commissioned the architect Thomas Archer to create a magnificent house incorporating all the Roman influences Charles Talbot had grown so passionate about during his time in Rome. The exterior is thus one of its main attractions, with the stunning grounds leading up to the impressive main house. The modern annexes of previous years have been now gone and the Shrewsbury Wing that forms part of the original Manor House has been refurbished completely and features a lovely quad with manicured gardens.
Located just outside the Cotswold village of Chipping Norton, a 20 mile drive from Oxford, this glorious property is hidden away at the end of a private 2 mile drive and is set in beautiful open parkland. Originally built in the 18th Century by the 12th Earl and only Duke of Shrewsbury, Heythrop Park combines the elegance of an 18th century manor house with a modern conference centre. Today the interior furnishing and decoration of the main house incorporate many antique and attractive items of furnishings, porcelain and glass. This hotel is ideal for both business and leisure travellers as it has extensive conference facilities, a magnificent 18 hole golf course and a brand new leisure centre with indoor pool and beauty/spa treatment rooms. The ensuite bedrooms are in the modern wings adjoining the main house. The special character of Heythrop, together with the excellent facilities, professional staff and delightful setting, make any visit or event very special and rewarding.

With only 17 luxury bedrooms located in the main mansion, the remaining 137 are found in the Shrewsbury and Archer Wings which were built at the same time and in the same Baroque style as the house. They are located and linked on the left and right of the mansion. They have both been fully refurbished this year and provide simple contemporary en suite rooms with tea and coffee making facilties, trouser press, TV and direct dial telephone. These are excellent value rooms.
The hotel has tennis courts and a games room. The hotel is the ideal starting point for those wishing to go hiking or cycling as well as for trips to the nearby town of Oxford.
