The Langley, a Luxury Collection Hotel Buckinghamshire, offers post-lockdown ideas

We've all spent a great deal of time indoors in the past year, fuelling our desire to embrace a new way of experiencing the world. As the road map for restrictions being lifted is due to be announced soon, couples looking to book a minimoon or staycation honeymoon at The Langley hotel in Buckinghamshire can get offline and outside, discovering the twelve hectares of park and woodland that surround the property. This secluded location offers a chance to connect with nature. Borrow a pair of the comfortable Aigle wellington boots and explore the natural wonders of the wider estate, ambling along footpath trails and discovering iconic Lancelot 'Capability' Brown-designed gardens and The Langley Park Arboretum along the way.

Treat yourself to some much-needed me time at The Langley Spa, an unrivalled backdrop for wellness and indulgence. Combining striking design elements with world-class facilities, the subterranean spa offers vitality pools, hammams, a juniper-wood sauna with pink Himalayan salt walls, a private VIP suite and a 16-metre marble-lined indoor swimming pool. This inviting setting is complemented by a menu of custom treatments, influenced by the restorative properties of the surrounding Buckinghamshire countryside. Guests can continue to unwind in one of the spa's relaxation spaces, or be pampered in the manicure and pedicure studio or hair salon.

Reconnect with a select group of family and friends in the hotel's intimate six-seater screening room. Offering a snug refuge from the outside the world, the cinema can be hired privately. Relax on one of the plush loungers and choose from a selection of headline movies or the latest sporting broadcasts. Enjoy the cinematic experience with popcorn and finger food and a menu of bespoke cocktails that can be prepared and served directly to your seat.

There's no shortage of outdoor activities at The Langley. Just steps from the hotel's Winter Garden is the idyllic outdoor pool, where guests can take in the country air. There are private tennis courts, perfect for a quick game or an expert coaching session and in partnership with Humphreys of Henley and Holland & Holland, guests can immerse themselves in a series of quintessentially English countryside activities, from falconry to clay-pigeon shooting and horse riding in Great Windsor Park.Showcasing the best of British, the cuisine at the Langley is inspired by the bountiful English countryside.

A culinary destination, the Cedar restaurant showcases the finest British fare, alongside natural, seasonal produce sourced from European markets. Settle in at Churchill Bar and enjoy a curated selection of fine spirits, cognac and cocktails, alongside a rare choice of cigars, stored in a custom humidor. Decorated with historic features, original artworks and contemporary furnishings, the Drawing Room is an enriching backdrop for Afternoon Tea.
