Big moments need big spaces — the kind that make together feel effortless & fun
Arnulf
Hesdin was born from the spirit of Arnulf de Hesdin — the original owner of this land; a medieval knight famed not for The Battle of Hastings ( too much mud darling) but for bringing people together— the Hesdin Estate was shaped around one belief: people thrive when they’re together.
Arnulf understood something simple and powerful: Loyalty wasn’t forged in mud — it was forged around long tables, shared bread, and stories told late into the night. That’s where Arnulf believed life really happened. Where food was plentiful, laughter was expected, and every person — family, friend, or stranger-at-breakfast — belonged.
So when he laid the foundations of Hesdin, he built it around the things he loved most:
big tables for big meals, loud laughter, fierce games, good wine, long conversations, and the kind of connection that stays with you long after everyone’s gone home.
This is the heartbeat of Hesdin today.
Real people, beautifully together under one roof
Arnulf’s Philosophy
-
Big brings people out of their bedrooms. Most big houses are just that: lots of bedrooms. Hesdin is different. We built long tables that seat everyone properly, living spaces made for an entire tribe, pools big enough for chaos, and games rooms that pull people away from screens.
Our homes are designed so your group actually spends time together. -
Big pots for cooking. Six ovens. Endless glasses. Too many dishwashers (on purpose).
Comfy seating for everyone
Deliciously inviting pools
TVs big enough for movie marathons.
Spaces where being together feels effortless.It’s your home —
if your home had been built specifically to host up to 30 people at all times. -
Hesdin is for your people:
The school-gate friends who became sisters,
the uni crew you still adore,
the colleagues who became family,
the chaos crew who make your life louder and lighter.We create houses that hold all of them — under one roof.
-
Celebrate it now.
Book the house, wrangle the group, get it in the calendar. Because when you look back one day,
you won’t think about emails, smoothies, or steps.
You’ll remember the weekends you got everyone together. -
Everything is better when it’s yours.
You’re all far too radiant to share a sauna with Keith-from-Luton. Your own pool. Your own hot tub to gossip in. Your own sauna to spend too long in and get a little wobbly. Your own soundtrack. Your own schedule. Your own vibe.
The Champion of Togetherness…
The ultimate form of wellness isn’t solitude —
it’s togetherness
Wellness is wonderful. But real wellness? That happens when you’re together. You can have a sauna, a steam, a cold plunge — glorious.
But why should any of it be done alone in silence, next to a stranger called Nigel wearing a robe three sizes too small?
At Hesdin, wellness sounds like laughter, splashing, clinking glasses, kids shrieking with joy, adults finally exhaling because no one has to be anywhere else.
Our homes were built with one philosophy — Arnulf’s philosophy: People feel better when they’re together. Properly together. In real life.
In big, beautiful spaces that make it easy.
That’s real wellness. And that’s why Hesdin exists.
Luxury with it’s shoes off
Our homes are designed for:
— Big tables that fit everyone
— Private pools that keep the kids happy for twelve hours
— Hot tubs that play host to 3-hour conversations
— Games rooms that turn anything into fierce competitions
— Spaces that make you forget your phone exists
And yes, it feels luxurious.
Not because of stillness… but because of freedom. Freedom to be exactly as you are with the people who know you best.
As Arnulf De Hesdin liked to say: “You can journal about gratitude… or you can sit at a long table and feel it..”
When your hair gets grey, and you get too old to pluck those spiky hairs on your chin, you’ll remember the moments that felt full, ridiculous, warm, human, not ice plunging and matcha.
THE HESDIN WAY
Hesdin does big properly. Not the usual “three lodges scattered across a field, everyone crammed into one sad living room with a chipped mug from a car boot to sip from. If a place says it sleeps 12 but only gives you six forks… darling, that’s not hosting — that’s hardship.
We built our homes the opposite way round: start with the togetherness, then build the walls around it. Long tables that seat everyone. Spaces that don’t make you choose who gets a sofa cushion. Pools, saunas, hot tubs — all yours, all private, all waiting.
And beyond your home? A whole estate filled with brilliant families and groups doing exactly what you came to do: spend time together, properly.
This is the Hesdin Way: Hosting crafted with actual intention. Because togetherness shouldn’t be an afterthought. It should be the blueprint.
