Spring getaways at THE PIG hotels
Goodbye winter blues, hello sunshine-filled stays!
Whatever the reason this season, there’s a PIG waiting for you...
Let's put a spring back in our step... the plants are waking up from their slumber, blue skies are emerging and brighter days are on their way! Whether you're keen to pull on your walking boots, grab your board and head to the ocean, fasten your helmet and get peddling or just simply kick back and relax with a glass of something chilled, each PIG's unique surroundings can deliver a spring break you'll remember.
Escaping the city, exploring the countryside and coast, catching up with friends or down time with your favourite person!
THE PIG, New Forest
Nestled in the enchanted New Forest, our original PIG has the bustling village of Brockenhurst right on it's doorstep with plenty of local treasures to explore. Hop on a bike and peddle yourself off into the New Forest National Park - this time of year it really comes to life with vibrant bluebells, fresh greenery and earthy scents in the air.
THE PIG-in the wall, Southampton
Right in the heart of the city, overlooking Southampton harbour and tucked in the medieval walls, spring city breaks to THE PIG-in the wall offers the perfect mix of urban and country. Shop your little heart out at West Quay, take yourself off to the New Forest for a dose of nature or get on the water at Hamble River.
THE PIG-near Bath, Somerset
Tucked in the Mendip Hills, spring in Somerset promises bluer skies, rolling hills, yellow daffodils and an excuse to enjoy cider in the sun. Venture beyond our mellow country house to discover the West County from the spectacular heights of Cheddar Gorge, to the streets of the time-honoured, golden-coloured architecture of Bath.
THE PIG-at Combe, Devon
Hidden in the Otter Valley, surrounded by 3,500 acres of lush Devonshire greenery and the coast only a 15-minute drive away, THE PIG-at Combe offers an unforgettable spring getaway for both land and sea seekers. Grab a smoky flat bread in The Folly, trek Devon's craggy coastline or buzz about the cobbled lanes of Exeter.
THE PIG-on the beach, Dorset
With the coast in casting distance and the fresh colours of spring coming into full force across the countryside, THE PIG-on the beach is the perfect place for a spring staycation. Take to the Dorset Hills if you want to adventure beyond our gardens, meander along the coastline or mosy about the local areas for a souvenir from Swanage.
THE PIG-at Bridge Place, Kent
This time of year sees colourful wildflowers across our lawns, sprouting spring greens and deliciously smoky aromas from our Garden Oven. Whisk yourself off to explore the quirky local village of Bridge, take to the rivers and punt your way through Canterbury, or navigate the Garden of England and discover what a great glass of English wine is.
THE PIG-at Harlyn Bay, Cornwall
Peeps of sunshine, salty air and sunsets to pull-over for, our hide-away by the sea is only a 10-minute drive to the picturesque port of Padstow and a short stroll to Harlyn beach. Discover the heights of the headlands, unearthing quirky local treasures or getting on the water! Head straight from the surf to some outdoor eating at The Lobster Shed.
THE PIG-in the South Downs, West Sussex
Explore our patch tucked in the rolling hills of West Sussex. Spring in West Sussex really is something else! We are spoilt with the rolling hills of the South Downs, ancient towns and historic houses to explore, miles of coastline and some of the best English wines you can get your hands on!
