A much-loved Berkshire retreat has entered a new chapter. Donnington Valley Hotel & Spa in Newbury has been reimagined and relaunched as Donnington & Co., familiar in name, yet refreshed in spirit.
Set among rolling countryside and long celebrated for its spa and golf, the privately owned estate has undergone a significant transformation. The result is a destination where contemporary style meets effortless hospitality, a place where charm lives in the details and guests are always in good company.
The newly reimagined reception and lobby of Donnington & Co now provides a crisp, contemporary welcome, while the restaurant Press has been redesigned with warm copper, gold and orange tones, anchored by a striking central banquet table. The suites have been refreshed to offer a spectrum of experiences, from simple comfort to quiet indulgence, and communal areas have been styled to feel both modern and comfortably familiar. Together, the renovations have created a bespoke blend of elegance and alignment, setting the stage for the next chapter. The relaunch is accompanied by a refreshed website, designed to reflect the new brand identity and make exploring, booking and planning a stay at Donnington & Co. effortless.
A Stay: Rest & Restore
At Donnington & Co., sleep is a priority. The hotel’s 111 bedrooms, from Simple rooms with crisp linens and TEMPLESPA products, to Spacious hideaways with lounging areas, and indulgent Suites and Splendid Suites, are designed to feel considered and quietly luxurious. Thoughtful touches and refined interiors ensure every stay offers rest and restoration. Whether for a short break, a family escape or a corporate visit, comfort comes without compromise.
Dining: Heart & Soul
Food remains at the centre of the Donnington & Co. experience, with a renewed commitment to simple pleasures, delivered exceptionally well. At Press, the signature restaurant, dining is relaxed, seasonal and quietly indulgent. British produce is celebrated across the menu, from comforting classics to celebratory dinners, accompanied by a curated wine list. Afternoon tea remains a highlight: delicate sandwiches, warm scones with clotted cream, and homemade cakes served with tea or sparkling wine.
For something more casual, The HangOut is a laid-back outdoor terrace serving wood-fired pizzas, signature burgers and sharing boards, an easy-going space for guests to gather with friends, family or colleagues.
The Spa: Mind & Body
The Donnington & Co. Spa has long been known as a sanctuary of calm and is at the heart of the new brand. Every detail is designed to encourage guests to slow down, breathe deeply and feel restored. With a treatment menu featuring TEMPLESPA and Germaine de Capuccini, the spa blends science-led skincare with soul-soothing rituals. Guests can choose from results-driven facials, deeply restorative body therapies and indulgent spa days – each tailored with care, and unhurried by design.
Donnington & Co. is defined by quiet luxury. No fuss, no flash – just the right things, done well. With thoughtful detail, personal service and a setting in the Berkshire countryside, it is a place that stays with guests long after they leave.
