Overlooking the picturesque lake at Kenwood Hall will be a dedicated tranquil 'Wellness Area' where guests can relax on comfy beanbags and enjoy the view with some complimentary smoothies and healthy treats. Booking for the day is not required, simply turn up and enjoy what is on offer.

It's also a brilliant place to explore for walks with the family and even four-legged friends, as the hotel is dog-friendly too.
A range of different sized function rooms are available for all types of celebration. The venue can accommodate up to 150 guests for wedding breakfasts, and up to 180 guests for a party or evening reception in its largest room, the Lakeview.
