- DE VERE BEAUMONT ESTATE -
De Vere Beaumont Estate in Old Windsor , part of De Vere ’ s collection of country estate hotels , has today unveiled the final phase of its grand transformation with the completion of refurbishment works to its bedrooms , the Beaumont Restaurant and indoor swimming pool , which concludes a £ 25 million investment into the hotel .
The final stage of work has seen the remaining 28 bedrooms at De Vere Beaumont Estate completely updated , meaning that now all 429 rooms offer a new luxurious , relaxed , and contemporary design , while retaining the estate ’ s original features , bringing the mansion house in line with De Vere ’ s distinctly British aesthetic .
The White House bedrooms are complete with luxurious facilities including walk-in showers , rolltop baths , fluffy robes and slippers , classic Roberts radios , Penhaligon toiletries and smart TVs - just some of the features that provide a relaxing feel to the newly designed guest rooms and suites .
Guests dining at De Vere Beaumont Estate can also enjoy a refreshed new look in the Beaumont Restaurant which has been updated with new tables , chairs , carpets and buffet serving units . This sits alongside the recently refurbished 1705 Restaurant , with menus that celebrate the best of British cuisine .
The swimming pool , believed to be the first heated indoor swimming pool in the UK when it was built as part of St . Stanislaus College has been refurbished and had new equipment installed .
Darren McGhee , Venue Director at De Vere Beaumont Estate , commented : “ We ’ re absolutely thrilled with the results of the final refurbishments at De Vere Beaumont Estate . The feedback from our guests has been extremely positive and the entire team is looking forward to continuing to build on our existing success .”
In 2018 , De Vere Beaumont Estate unveiled the results of the first phase of a £ 12million refurbishment which included the creation of new luxury bedrooms and a top-to-toe refurbishment of much of the property , including the hotel ’ s 45 event spaces . This saw a refresh of the hotel ’ s Grade II 19th-century chapel , with an ornate painted ceiling and stained-glass windows which was returned to its former glory . The Chapel now provides a striking and unique backdrop to events , from weddings , to celebratory dinners for up to 200 guests .
De Vere Beaumont Estate is located three miles from Egham station , with connections to London Waterloo and Reading , and just six miles from Heathrow Airport . The estate is also easily accessible from the M3 , M4 , and M25 .
