Designated as a scheduled Historic Monument and Grade 1 listed Building.

Access

Directions: Close to M25, Heathrow and M3 London is 40 minutes by rail. Great Fosters was probably built as a Royal Hunting Lodge in Windsor Forest. The hotel possesses many original details and features. Of particular note are the rare oak stairwell, the ornate plasterwork in several public areas and bedrooms together with some very fine examples of Jacobean chimneypieces. On the ceiling of the Tapestry bedroom for example is the armillary sphere of Henry Percy, 9th Earl of Northumberland. There is a remarkable 1600's carved chimneypiece and stone mantelpiece carved with the story of Adam and Eve and early 17th century Flemish tapestries adorn the walls.
