A 15th-century tithe barn sits at the center of this West Sussex estate, which ranks 32nd on the World's 50 Best Vineyards list and makes a strong case that the South Downs are serious sparkling wine country. Tasting tours run on select summer days, covering the full range of estate-grown wines over two and a half hours, with the ticket price redeemable against a six-bottle case, which is either generous or a trap, depending on your self-control.

Tucked into a 400-acre Hampshire estate, The Bothy by Wildsmith is a spa that feels less like a wellness amenity and more like a quiet argument for leaving London. The interiors lean into the surroundings rather than escaping them, with earthy tones and natural materials that make the Georgian setting feel current rather than costume. Vogue named it among the 100 Best Spas in the World, which the forest trails outside do nothing to contradict.
