Oddfellows On The Park Early spring 2017 saw our second hotel open, set in the leafy enclaves of Bruntwood Park in a magnificent example of a Gothic Victorian mansion.


It’s a completely different hotel to


our first and is defined by the story of its past inhabitants. It feels rich and opulent, yet it has a very distinct connection to its local community, governed by its place within the park. It has 22 beautiful bedrooms, the Stud Room Bar, The Galloping Major restaurant, amazing event spaces that look over the park and – a first for Oddfellows – a salon de beauté, the Pigsty. The building has been carefully


restored with wonderful, original features and guests will feel the same sense of fun and British eccentricity that Victorians might have expected at a country house party. This is only the second Oddfellows hotel and it’s just the start of the journey. We expect our hotels to stampede across the country in the coming decade. Take the reins and join the adventure!
