Camp End Manor Arguably the fi nest property on St. George’s Hill
Situated within one of England’s most sought after private estates, Camp End Manor is a stunning new residence presented in an idyllic and unique setting.
Designed to an exacting standard by architects Lees Associates and interior designed by LINLEY, from its very conception the design and construction has been a devoted exercise in providing the highest standard of living toits residents.
The design of the house was a direct response to the house’s unique location, its simple, sensitive plan provides balance and harmony, and its generous ceiling heights, windows and skylights allow natural light to fl ood its spaces. It is a home that truly lifts the spirits.
Occupying one of the highest plots onSt. George’s Hill, the house is in an authentic Regency style and extends to c. 1,600 sq. m(gross external area) set in c. 6,000 sq. m of land and landscaped gardens.
The house is spread over two above–ground storeys and one basement level arranged around a grand elliptical central staircase. The top–lit staircase is a pioneering post–tensioned solid stone structure, making it remarkably slender and providing an elegant focus to the heart of the house.
Winner of The Design et Al International Design and Architecture Awards 2017, this is a truly unique opportunity to acquire a landmark property in a one–of–a–kind position. We invite you to experience Camp End Manor.
“International Design & Architecture Awards” and “WhatHouse? Awards” Winner 2017
The principal living spaces are arranged in the three wings of the house around the stair hall at ground floor level, with ancillary accommodation efficiently occupying the spaces between.
The master bedroom suite occupies the full length of the south side of the house at first floor level, and it is from here that the view across the landscape can be appreciated the most. The en–suite bathrooms to bedrooms 2 and 3 have huge skylights that cover the entire ceiling, filling the bathrooms with light.
Respecting the rules of classical proportions of space and volume was a key design driver; as a result all principal rooms have floor to ceiling heights of 3.5m. Smaller ancillary rooms have lower ceilings but these are still a generous 2.7m, giving the house a wonderful sense of balance.
Its simple, sensitive plan provides balance and harmony and its generous ceiling heights, windows and skylights allow natural light to flood its spaces.
The lower ground floor contains the leisure spaces. Descending down the helical stairs, you
glimpse the 12 metre swimming pool through a full–height glazed wall before arriving in the wine bar – perfect for unwinding after a swim or workout. A cinema room and gym lead off from the wine bar but the principal destination is the pool room itself, with changing rooms, sauna and hammam spa.
The deep ink blue mosaic tiles of the pool contrast beautifully with the pale limestone floor and polished plaster walls. The far end of the pool room projects out under the garden, where an oculus roof light draws natural light down to be reflected by the pool and filling the space with natural daylight. Linked to the end of the pool is a spa area from where the full benefit of the roof light can be enjoyed.
Camp End Manor is not just a luxury home by virtue of its fixtures and fittings; from its very conception its design and construction has been a devoted exercise in providing the highest standard of living to its residents.
The HouseA beautiful and unique English residence
Designed by LINLEY, the starting point for the interior design scheme was sophistication, understated elegance and a sense of calm. The designers created the space for the owners to relax and immediately feel at home.

The Regency style of the house, with its symmetrical footprint, gives harmony and balance to the building’s structure and to all the rooms within. It also means the views can be seen from one side of the house right through to the opposite side.

The ‘fl oating’ staircase is a masterpiece of both design and engineering – created by hand, it refl ects a free–standing curve of 270º and crafted using the purest French Limestone.

The land at Camp End Manor also has a wonderful history. Originally the site of an Iron Age fort, the plateau upon which the house sits curves steeply away, with a secret woodland wildlife garden running down to the south west. Mature trees and shrubs grow abundantly throughout the gardens, with some fine specimens found amongst the mature planting.
Over one hundred skilled craftspeople and design professionals have played their part in creating this beautiful and unique English residence. A focus on detail and craftsmanship has covered all aspects of the property from architecture to construction, interior design and furnishing.
Conceived as a single creative vision, the contents of the property are included within the sale and an inventory is available through the agents.
The Riviera Desk crafted by LINLEY is a unique desk with a high gloss finish featuring a Santos rosewood top and inlaid sycamore pinstripe inspired by yacht decking. The desk houses filing drawers and discreet cabling access as well as LINLEY signature secret drawers and compartments. The Riviera desk is inspired by the glamorous yachting world of the Côte d’Azur.
Located centrally on the plot, it is rooted in the landscape with each of its four elevations defining and responding to a separate area of the garden and landscape beyond. It has a
gross external area of about 1,600 sq. m. (gross internal about 1,350 sq. m.) spread over two above ground storeys and one basement level.

St. George’s Hill is internationally renowned as one of the most highly sought–after private estates in England, with Camp End Manor occupying one of the highest plots on the estate.
The property itself takes its name from the Iron Age fort that once occupied the site, the ramparts of which still define the south and west boundaries of its garden. As a result, the house enjoys stunning views over the forests, fields and villages of The Surrey Downs.
Access onto the private, gated estate is controlled 24/7 by the estate’s private security personnel. St. George’s Hill is set in some 900 acres and features a private championship golf course and a separate private tennis and squash club – an ideal location for families looking for quality and privacy.
The tennis club is one of the foremost racquet sports clubs in England, with 30 grass and all–weather tennis courts, two indoor courts and four squash courts. The tennis club also has a 20 metre indoor swimming pool, a well–equipped gym and a restaurant and bar.
In addition to the on–site sporting facilities, there are many other challenging golf courses locally including Wentworth, Sunningdale, Woking, Foxhills, Queenwood, Worplesdon and West Hill. Racing is available at Sandown Park, Ascot, Epsom and Windsor. Polo can be enjoyed at Guards Polo Club and The Royal Berkshire Polo Club.
St. George’s Hill offers an ideal location for families looking for security and privacy and there are several excellent English and International schools in the area including Eton College, Harrow School, Reeds School, St. George’s College and The ACS International School amongst others.
Transport links are excellent, Weybridge train station is approximately 3 km away and has regular services to London Waterloo from just 28 minutes.
