Ortus House - Hampshire

Built in late Victorian times and once a maternity hospital, Ortus House has everything you could possibly want for large group holidays, whether it’s friends and family, a hen weekend, corporate hospitality or days away team building. There’s room for 14 sleepy heads, plus 1 more at an extra charge, and is has a tremendous feeling of space and style throughout. There are indoor and outdoor infinity pools, a hot tub, steam room, gym, games room and play equipment in the garden. On a quiet lane in Lyndhurst, there’s absolutely heaps to see and do in the surrounding area of the beautiful New Forest.

The Forest is only a few minutes stroll from the door, and you’ll find much to discover, good places to eat, and fantastic family attractions. Explore on foot, on bike or on horseback, and if you like a bit of wildlife go to Bolderwood Deer Sanctuary and The New Forest Reptile Centre. If you’re the adventurous types you can go kayaking and canoeing or try your hand at archery with New Forest Activities. Take the kids to Longdown Activity Farm or to Beaulieu where you can visit World of Top Gear, the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu Abbey and nearby Buckler’s Hard.

Further afield you can spend the day soaking up the maritime history in Southampton where you can find out about the sinking of the Titanic at SeaCity Museum; or go to Portsmouth, grab some retail therapy at Gunwharf Quay, go up in the Spinnaker Tower, and to the historic dockyards to see The Mary Rose or HMS Victory. Pack a picnic and take off to the sands at Highcliffe or Poole, where you can catch the ferry over to Brownsea Island. You could even take a day trip to the Isle of Wight!
