Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a gym guests can use during their stay?
Yes. There is a fully equipped gym, East Park Gym, on the estate in Hepburn House, just across the bridge from the mansion. Guests are welcome to use it during their stay. To check access for your visit, call us on 0118 974 7576.
Are all the bedrooms in the main mansion?
No. We have over 90 bedrooms in total, split across two buildings. There is the original Mansion House, with classic rooms, and the newer Hepburn House next door, with modern rooms, linked by a bridge. If you would prefer one or the other, just let us know when you book on 0118 974 7576.
Is the hotel historic?
Yes, very. Easthampstead Park is a Grade II listed Victorian mansion with a long history, from a royal hunting lodge to the seat of the Marquis of Downshire. A major refurbishment has kept its period charm while bringing everything up to date. To book a stay, call 0118 974 7576.
How big are the grounds, and can guests walk around them?
Yes, guests are welcome to explore. The hotel sits in around 60 acres of woodland, parkland and formal gardens, so there is plenty of room for a stroll. It is a lovely setting, yet only minutes from Wokingham and Bracknell. To plan a visit, call 0118 974 7576.
Is there a restaurant, and what kind of food?
Yes. We have two restaurants and a cocktail bar, serving freshly cooked British food. The Grill looks out over the gardens, and there is a lovely terrace for dining outdoors in good weather. Tables can get busy, so it is worth booking ahead on 0118 974 7576.
Can couples get married at Easthampstead Park?
Yes, we are a popular wedding venue. For smaller, intimate weddings, couples can marry in our Wedding Pavilion or the elegant Downshire Ballroom, with its original stained-glass window. For larger weddings and multicultural celebrations, our King Suite is a stunning space that can hold up to 500 guests. We have dedicated wedding planners to help. To check dates or arrange a visit, call 0118 974 7576.
Can you host conferences, meetings or away days?

Is there a lift, or are the rooms reached by stairs?
