Hackwood Park, Basingstoke, RG25 2JY

Hackwood Park is a 260‑acre (110 ha) country estate that primarily consists of an 18th‑century ornamental woodland and formal lawn garden, together with a 51,681 sq ft (4,801.3 m²) long mansion in light stone of symmetrical design. The park and gardens are Grade I listed on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens, and the main house is Grade II* listed on the National Heritage List for England. The estate lies within Winslade, a small parish immediately southeast of Basingstoke in Hampshire, which had a population of 174 people throughout the 1801‑1851 period when the manorial interest still held legal value. It was placed on the market in 2016 seeking offers of around £65 million. As of 2025 it remains for sale, now nominally as two expert restoration companies seeking a grant of planning permission for use as a hotel, instructed via the owners. The estate’s historic features and extensive grounds offer potential for redevelopment while preserving its heritage status.
