3. VSL Visits Rowhill Grange & Utopia Spa

Thursday 31 July 2025

This beautiful 4 silver star hotel offers the perfect setting for a corporate offsite or retreat, within easy reach from central London. Located in Hextable, guests can reach the hotel within 30 minutes via train from London Victoria, allowing them to focus on the important stuff!

Rowhill Grange meeting and events spaces offer state-of-the-art boardrooms and suites, beautiful grounds, and two private conference suites, the Pavilion and The Clockhouse. 

VSL were lucky enough to be invited to explore this boutique hotel within The Alexander Hotel Collection and see for ourselves how conferencing and wellness can be incorporated to leave delegates feeling looked after and calm. 

With 38 rooms and suites, 6 meeting rooms and 15 acres of gardens it perfectly caters for smaller groups. The Pavilion and The Clockhouse are both separate to the Main House and offer exclusive use options. Additionally, Rowhill Grange has several terraces overlooking the gardens, Elements Bar & Lounge and the rosetted restaurant, RGs.

The Pavilion is a stylishly designed, intelligent ‘think space’ environment with modern technology, mood lighting, reception area and private terrace; ideal for up to 30 cabaret or 50 theatre style. Guests can hire the restaurant for lunch or refreshments for a change of scene. 

For slightly larger groups, The Clockhouse Suite provides a gracious setting with plenty of natural character. Equipped with modern technology, stage setting or dance floor, air conditioning, private bar and courtyard, the space can accommodate up to 160 delegates Theatre style or 130 for private dining. 

With 15 acres of gardens at your disposal along with a fab little black book of suppliers, the hotel also has plenty of great team building solutions. From ice breakers to creative exercises, learning new skills as well as more traditional team building activities, there’s something for every team to enjoy. 

The experience kicked off with a light and freshly prepared lunch on one of the covered terraces, followed by a showcase of the spaces and a taster of the add-ons available to delegates. We were lucky enough to experience a yoga class underneath the permanent awning in the grounds, surrounded by the trees, plus a mini treatment in the award winning spa. We finished the day with a private dinner served in The Drawing Room before retiring to our individually decorated bedrooms.
