Unveiled in 2026, the Clark Suite was historically known as the “Blue Room.” Today, views of woodland glades are still enjoyed through its original, pale blue stained-glass. The sophisticated space is clad in Schumacher ikat wallpaper while striking Brunschwig & Fils drapery frames the Suite’s multiple windows.

Elsewhere, you’ll discover a collection of unique art commissioned exclusively for the Suite as well as Ginori 1735 Oriente plates, symbolising Jessie and Heaton Rhodes’ remarkable honeymoon to Japan at the end of the 19th century.

After an invigorating day exploring the wonders of Canterbury, the Clark Suite offers the perfect place to unwind, either in front of the wood-burning fireplace or in the elegant bathroom with its free-standing tub.
