Top Spa Hotels in Buckinghamshire (2026)

Hartwell House

Buckinghamshire boasts easy access to London, but its expansive countryside and rolling hills also make it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the capital, with historic houses, stunning gardens and wonderful walking trails all on the doorstep. A stay at one of its top spa hotels is the perfect place to unwind, where you can enjoy indoor and outdoor pools, tension-melting massages, tranquil sauna experiences and relaxed fine dining. From grand mansions to historic gems, our Gurus have highlighted their favourites so you can prepare to be pampered in style.

For a five-star experience

The Langley

  • A grand Palladian mansion with sweeping grounds, The Langley provides an impressive stay. Enjoy plush, modern decor, king-sized beds, marble bathrooms and an outdoor pool, plus excellent British fare at the restaurants. The superb jewel-like spa creates a truly indulgent experience with a VIP suite, hammam, relaxing treatments and an indoor pool.

For the activities

Danesfield House Hotel and Spa

  • Nestled in 65 acres of landscaped and formal gardens overlooking the River Thames, Danesfield House Hotel & Spa is a majestic French Renaissance-style country house. There is an array of activities to enjoy here, including woodland walks, billiards, tennis and a putting green, plus a pampering spa with a 20m indoor pool, hot tub, steam room and a vast range of face and body treatments. Heaven.

For a historic gem

Hartwell House

  • King Louis XVIII and his court once stayed at Hartwell House, so if it's good enough for royalty . . . Set in the Chilterns just outside Aylesbury, expect vast chandeliers, marble fireplaces, opulent furnishings and fine paintings. Take time to relax in the spa, a five-minute walk from the main house, with its neo-classical archways around the pool and a whirlpool hot tub.

For a contemporary spa

Taplow House Hotel & Spa

  • Taplow House Hotel & Spa may be set in a beautiful Georgian manor, but when it comes to wellness facilities it's a modern marvel. The spa offers a contemporary contrast to the historic main building with a relaxing lounge featuring splashes of vibrant colour and leading to a wonderful outdoor hydrotherapy pool. The peaceful setting amid acres of glorious grounds makes this a true countryside haven.
