Amtico Brings Timeless Elegance to Heythrop Park

Set amid 440 acres of rolling Cotswold parkland, Heythrop Park Hotel is a Grade II* Listed manor house reborn for today’s luxury traveller. When Warner Leisure appointed DesignLSM to modernise the estate, the challenge was clear: honour the building’s 18th-century grandeur while crafting a contemporary hospitality experience. Amtico’s Signature and Spacia luxury vinyl tile (LVT) collections proved the perfect solution, offering the durability and design flexibility needed to bridge past and present.

DesignLSM specified Amtico flooring throughout the manor and its modern extension, using laying patterns that echo the historic property yet withstand heavy footfall. In the dramatic Brassey Bar – named after former estate owner and Victorian railway magnate Thomas Brassey – the team laid Key Stone Mini in Graphite Slate and Composite Calcium, framed by Dark Walnut Stripwood Xtra and Diffusion Charcoal. The result? A striking floor that zones seating areas, celebrates industrial heritage and invites guests to linger over cocktails.

In The Orangery, Amtico’s Key Stone Small in Stucco Quartz and Stucco Flax floods the space with classical geometry. The pattern, influenced by Victorian tilework and the hotel’s ‘enchanted fishpond’ motif, sits within a border of Diffusion Charcoal and Encaustic Kyanite – complementing the calm green upholstery and bespoke ‘submerged’ wallpaper.

Lisa Robertson, Lead Designer at DesignLSM, said:

“Amtico’s flooring range provided extremely durable and cost-effective solutions for the vast project whilst also offering the flexibility to customise products. This allowed our design team the opportunity to be creative in specifying items that would complement our beautiful schemes for each room within the Grade II* Listed hotel.”

Tom Carter, Managing Director at Carters Flooring (Leisure) adds:

“Amtico seamlessly provided the solutions to harmonise the charm of the manor house with the contemporary vision of the refurbishment. Throughout the journey, the Amtico team offered invaluable guidance and unwavering support, whether in product selection or timely delivery updates. The remarkable outcome speaks volumes – it’s a project that stands as a testament to the collective pride of all involved”

Amtico flooring doesn’t just cover the ground – it tells a story. At Heythrop Park, LVT has become a canvas for the estate’s rich narrative, combining timeless elegance with the resilience of modern luxury vinyl tile.
