Foxhills Club & Resort has been awarded the coveted AA Four Red Star status, placing it among the very best hotels in the UK, at the AA Hospitality Awards held at JW Marriot Grosvenor House on Monday 22 September.

The AA Red Star accolade is the highest award given to hotels by the AA’s team of expert inspectors. Currently, only 152 hotels across the UK hold the prestigious Red Star rating, which is reserved for establishments that deliver outstanding levels of quality, hospitality, and service throughout. The accolade firmly positions Foxhills as one of Surrey and the South East’s premier destinations for meetings, conferences, and events.

Situated in the heart of Surrey, just minutes from the M3 and M25 and just 23 mins from London by train, Foxhills combines the elegance of its historic 19th-century Manor House with first class leisure, dining, and wellness facilities across its 400-acre estate. Guests can enjoy access to 66 luxury bedrooms, three restaurants, two Championship golf courses, nine tennis courts, as well as corporate benefits such as a range of dedicated meeting rooms, conference suites, and outdoor spaces ideal for away days, networking, training, and team-building activities for the perfect blend of work and play.

Foxhills’ recognition stems not only from investment in facilities but also in its people, with a clear career path from HOD to senior management that supports staff development and retention. Over a quarter of the team—more than 70 employees—have been with Foxhills for five years or more, including six who have surpassed 25 years and were each honoured at a Long Service Dinner.

Tej Walia MI, managing director of Foxhills Club & Resort, said:
“We are truly honoured to receive the AA Four Red Star award, which is a testament to the dedication and passion of our entire team. At Foxhills, we strive to deliver exceptional experiences for every guest – whether they visit us for business meeting and events, golf, wellness, family leisure, or simply to relax in the beautiful Surrey countryside. To be recognised among the finest hotels and resorts in the UK is a milestone achievement and one we are extremely proud of. It is further recognition that Foxhills delivers not only a premium hospitality experience but also a professional and flexible environment for conferences, meetings, and events.”

Simon Numphud, managing director at AA Media, added:
“We are delighted to recognise Foxhills with our ultimate accolade of Red Stars as one of the best hotels in the UK at Four Stars. Over the last eighteen months the hotel has significant investment in upgrading all bedrooms, further strengthening their first-class golf and leisure facilities combined by excellent levels of hospitality and service.” 

Founded in 1975 as a golf club and purchased by Pam and Ian Hayton in 1983, Foxhills has since evolved into one of the UK’s leading country club resorts. Its diverse offering, from sport to spa to family leisure, continues to attract members, hotel guests, and meeting and event delegates alike.
