Hawk’s Ledge - Otium Wine Estate takes the Otium formula and gives it a slightly more airy, outdoorsy slant. It shares the estate’s core pleasures - 80 acres of vineyard, South Downs views, log burner, roll-top bath and rainfall shower - but the private balcony and direct access to gardens, farmland and trails make it especially appealing for guests who plan to spend as much time outside as in.
That matters here, because Otium is not only accommodation: it is a young English sparkling-wine estate planted with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. So even before the first bottles land, there is a strong sense of being part of an estate in the making. Go here for walking boots, good books and a bottle waiting on the balcony.
