Recognised by the Knight Frank Care Home Awards 2026 for Care Home Renovation, Loveday Esher stands as an award-winning example of what later living can look like when heritage, innovation and clinical excellence are brought together with care and precision.
The accolade reflects the ambition and detail behind the transformation of this exceptional residence.
At the centre of the estate is a magnificently restored 25,000 square foot Grade II listed country house, once the home of former Prime Minister David Lloyd George.

The refurbishment was undertaken with conservation officers and heritage consultants, preserving original architectural features such as fireplaces, timber panelling and decorative cornices, while discreetly integrating contemporary comfort and accessibility throughout.
The renovation is equally notable for its sustainability credentials. Advanced engineering solutions, including a ground source heat pump supported by 39 boreholes, smart building systems, underfloor heating and energy-efficient lighting, have enabled Loveday Esher to achieve an exceptional EPC rating of A, a rare accomplishment for a listed property of this scale.
The wider setting is a defining part of the experience. Across 13 acres, Members enjoy landscaped gardens maintained for nearly a century, tranquil ponds and terraces, and a flourishing kitchen garden that inspires seasonal menus. Beehives produce Loveday’s own honey, reinforcing the thoughtful connection between landscape and daily life.
Inside, the residence offers 37 elegant suites alongside exceptional spaces including a library, tea room and beautiful lounges, all designed for wellbeing and enjoyment. It is this blend of design integrity, innovation and meticulous attention to detail that defines Loveday Esher’s award-winning character.
