History and spectacular landscapes come together at Charlottesville, where Thomas Jefferson country meets Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains. Some of the USA's most famous landmarks, including Jefferson's Monticello and the University of Virginia, are clustered here among swathes of the East Coast's most beautiful scenery, home to renowned horse races, hunts and vineyards.

This is the setting for Keswick Hall, an impressive mansion with its own Arnold Palmer Signature 18-hole golf course and a luxurious spa. This estate is the perfect retreat for those who wish to combine relaxation and pampering with some fresh country air.
