Unusual night in a former maritime fort
Presentation
Practical information
A 4* hotel hidden in a sea fortress.
The power emanating from this fort with steel and granite walls sets the tone, and its past as a maritime stronghold is immediately evident. Built to withstand bombardments from Napoleon III's warships, this gigantic fortress rises in the middle of the sea between the Isle of Wight and the mainland.
For the record, it was never used against the French, not even in the 19th century, but its position made it a defense post against submarine and aerial attacks during the first two world wars.
Three times larger than its famous neighbor the Spitbank Fort, No Man's Fort will, upon its opening, offer 22 fabulous rooms spread over four levels.
The hotel will also feature luxurious amenities with helicopter landing pads, a nightclub, billiards, laser quest, a dining room for 200 guests, a heated pool, a sauna, and a penthouse suite in the lighthouse built on a panoramic terrace. Nothing less!
By transforming this fort into an exceptional place open to travelers as well as weddings or business meetings, the Amazing Venues collection (Clarenco Group) fully intends to provide us with a unique experience in a fort classified as a historical monument.
The adventure begins by boarding the shuttle—or the helicopter—that will take you to this hidden world that opened in spring 2015.
