Maryhill Estate

Style

Soirées-on-sea

Setting

Skåne’s shoreline

The beauty of Maryhill Estate — besides its good looks — is that you can flit from one leisurely pastime to the next with little need (or desire) to leave its well-kept grounds. You’re just as likely to don towelling robes as you are tennis whites, and mingle over martinis and oysters by the pools or DJ-helmed lounges. Whether you’ve been living it up in the Sugar Club or kicking back in Hill House, bedtime is sure to bring yet more sweet dreams.

Our Favourite Rooms

Decide now if ‘contemporary’ or ‘castle’ calls to you more; bedrooms are split between the more recently added Sugar Club and the historic Hill House, which is the more intimate of the two with just 16 bedrooms. For views across the Öresund Strait, opt for a Sugar Club Balcony room or Hill House Ocean View room. The Sugar Club Pool Deck rooms are closest to the laps-and-lounging action, and the Suite Sugar Parlour is ideal for families or friends in need of some extra space.

Poolside

There are three heated outdoor pools (open from 8am to 8pm, May to September) and one that’s unheated in the indoor spa; outside, flop onto floral-patterned loungers shaded by tasselled parasols as dry martinis magically work their way to you. The atmosphere amps up in the late afternoon as the DJ booths come alive beneath twinkling disco balls, with canopy-draped cabanas to retreat to overlooking the Öresund.

Spa

Robe-cocooned, you can pad across the Sugar Club’s wellness lounges in fluffy slippers, unwind in the sauna, by the indoor pool, or gather around chic copper wood-burning stoves. The Maryhill Health Club is open 24/7 if you’d like to squeeze in a workout between games of croquet or tennis.

Packing Tips

Brush up on the rules of croquet ahead of your stay if you want to impress, and bring some lawn-appropriate shoes for navigating the grounds in style.

Also

Tennis racquets are provided when you rent out the courts, all you need bring is some friendly competition.

Children

All ages are welcome (except in the spa and indoor pool which are for over-16s only), but this is more of a grown-up getaway.

Food & Drink

Top Table

Out on the terrace when it’s warm, and by one of the fireplaces in winter (still preferably facing the sea).

Dress Code

It’s difficult to feel overdressed here, especially in the evenings. Come suited and booted, with a touch of sparkle.

Hotel Restaurant

There are two; a Mediterranean-inspired restaurant in the Sugar Club, and a more clandestine eatery that’s reminiscent of New York’s speakeasies over at Hill House. Seating is spread across patterned banquettes and velvet armchairs, and the lighting is kept dinner-party-low beneath glitzy chandeliers and fringed pendants at both restaurants. The estate’s CEO, Robert ‘Bobbo’ Nilsson, is an award-winning chef, so expect crowd-pleasing flavours throughout both menus without any fine dining stuffiness. Portions are generous and often served on sharing style platters at Sugar Club, such as whole fish and flatbreads grilled over the parrilla for the entire table to tuck into. Start with oysters and shrimp cocktails at Hill House, and save room for the cloudberry-topped crème caramel.

Hotel Bar

Perfectly shaken martinis, champagne-based cocktails, and thoughtfully paired wines flow freely from the estate’s eight (yes, you read that correctly) bars. Leisurely brunchers bring their bloody marys out to sip by the pool, and espresso martinis keep late night chats going (and going).

Last Orders

Breakfast hours are 7am until 10am (7.30am until 11am at weekends). Lunch at Sugar Club runs from 11.30am until 2.30pm (Monday to Friday); at Hill House (weekends only), it’s from noon till 2.30pm. Dinner at both restaurants is served from 5pm until 10pm.

Planes

Malmö airport is just 35 minutes by car from the hotel, with Copenhagen an hour’s drive away. You could also fly into Gothenburg, which is two-and-a-half hours by road to the north.

Trains

Copenhagen arrivals can take a shuttle (departing every 20 minutes) over the famous Øresund bridge to Malmö, with onward connections to Glumslöv via Landskrona. Transfers to and from Glumslöv train station take just five minutes, and can be booked with the hotel on request.

Automobiles

Skåne County is beautifully walkable, especially through the Glumslöv Nature Reserve which is on the hotel’s doorstep. If you’re planning to drive, rentals are generally more affordable on the Swedish side compared with Denmark (if you’re coming from Copenhagen, that is). There’s ample free parking once you arrive at the estate.

Worth Getting Out of Bed For

Maryhill Estate is a true stay-and-play destination, with mallets, racquets, balls, bows and arrows in generous supply for croquet, tennis, badminton, boules and archery, plus two nearby golf courses at Landskrona and Vasatorps if you somehow manage to exhaust the garden games. A four-minute walk towards the coast brings you to the quaint fishing village of Ålabodarna, where locals go for wild swims off the bathing jetty and strolls along the shingle. Day trips to Malmö are within easy reach — put the city’s Form Design Center, with its Konstig-curated bookstore, on your list — and cross the Øresund Bridge (Nordic noir fans will recognise this iconic structure from The Bridge TV series) into Copenhagen.
