Property of Week - Langley Park | The Gentleman's Journal

his Georgian-listed manor house, set on 100 acres of stunning Wiltshire countryside, seamlessly blends traditional elegance with modern amenities, offering everything a modern gentleman could desire for a luxurious country escape.A slightly different offering this week is Langley Park, an exquisite Georgian-listed manor house that could serve as your country haven for however long you desire. Nestled in the heart of scenic countryside, it stands as a testament to timeless elegance and architectural splendour, as well as the art of hosting. Gone are the days of a simple jolly to the countryside. Langley takes this pilgrimage very seriously.

With eleven bedrooms and eight bathrooms in the main house, plus two bedrooms and one bathroom in the attached cottage, it is only right to start compiling your list of twenty-four esteemed guests to populate the manor for a weekend. Langley Park offers the ultimate hotel experience with complete privacy, available for hire with concierge service and daily cleaning included. For those seeking total relaxation, housekeeping and chefs can be arranged to suit your requirements, ensuring you do not lift a finger.

The itinerary is up to your own personal preference; however, the hours won't slowly tick by, as the plethora of indoor and outdoor activities guarantees endless entertainment for a group with a smorgasbord of interests. If you're the type in need of a bit of healthy competition, and perhaps a slightly dodgy tan line, then the brand new padel court, five-a-side football pitch, or all-weather tennis court might have your name on it. Or if you need an endeavour that toys the line between exercise and pleasure, then the free access to Bowood PGA Golf Club, with four complimentary tee times per day, will be calling out to you. As might the croquet lawn, with a side serving of champagne for some good old-fashioned fun.

If the clouds begin to gather, then a full-size snooker table, a table tennis room, and a cinema room with a top-of-the-range projector beckon you inside and are almost too tempting to resist. If it is purely relaxation on the cards, Langley Park of course offers a comprehensive range of wellness rooms for all your tranquil needs. Navigate the large newly built steam room, massage room, secluded hot tub, and the large swimming pool available all year round in a haze of pure calmness. It is the one-size-fits-all property that promises to unwind you in a way tailored to you.

After a day of sporting activities or wellness endeavours, when the hosting hour chimes, there are a multitude of areas in which to while away the evening while the empty bottles gather and the plates stack up. Whether you prefer casual al fresco dining or formal dinners, take your pick from the Dining Room, Breakfast Room, Flower Room, kitchen, or a spot of outdoor cooking on the terrace.

Once you are satiated but the evening hasn't quite drawn to a close, Langley Park's most unique feature calls from below: a hedonistic nightclub cellar. With two bars and three separate areas in addition to the dance floor, and a capacity of 200 guests, there is no limit to the possibilities of where your night might go, perhaps even catching the sunrise over the nearby Cotswolds hills.

It is truly the house that offers it all, a true compound where all your needs are met and there is absolutely no need to venture elsewhere. The hard work will be deciding who makes the cut.
