Welcome to Suite Stay Club

Suite Stay Club loves:

  • Set within the peaceful Hampshire countryside, Lainston House offers a relaxed country-house retreat where guests can unwind in elegant rooms, stroll through landscaped grounds, and enjoy a calm, welcoming atmosphere. 

  • Guests can enjoy refined seasonal dining at The Avenue and delicious wood-fired dishes in a relaxed setting at The Wellhouse.

  • The hotel also features the renowned Season Cookery School, where guests can take part in hands-on classes designed to inspire confidence and creativity in the kitchen.

Lainston House is a magnificent 17th-century Queen Anne country estate nestled within the beautiful city of Winchester, Hampshire. This luxurious hotel perfectly caters to curious explorers, romantic couples, and families seeking an incredible holiday. 

The sweeping estate spans 63 acres of gorgeous grounds bursting with historical charm. Visitors can wander through the mile-long avenue of lime trees, discover historic chapel ruins, or simply relax beside the sundial garden. Grand, lavishly furnished suites provide a beautifully comfortable sanctuary after a full day of rural adventure and discovery.

Exquisite dining awaits food lovers at The Avenue restaurant, allowing guests to indulge in true culinary luxury. Here, a MasterChef champion serves a tantalising tasting menu that promises an unforgettable and highly premium experience.

For a distinctly unique atmosphere, The Wellhouse offers deep, smoky flavours in a gorgeous rustic-luxe setting. It proudly stands as one of the only UK restaurants where every dish is expertly cooked over a roaring woodfire.

Guests looking for immersive experiences can sharpen their culinary skills at the on-site Season Cookery School or enjoy a guided tour of the walled kitchen garden to discover how the fresh ingredients are grown.

Beyond the estate, visitors can easily explore an array of local attractions, including the world-renowned fly fishing waters of the nearby Test Valley.
