Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons
Oxford, England
Situated in secluded grounds just eight miles south of the historic city of Oxford, Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons by Orient-Express resides in the charming village of Great Milton, England. This refined retreat and member of Relais & Chateaux marries Michelin-star gourmet with a contemporary classic hotel to create an unforgettable stay. The hotel features just 32 individually appointed rooms, all of which have a regal and romantic allure. Floors are crafted from thick wooden planks and beds are fashioned in rich-colored hues. There are crackling fireplaces, beamed ceilings, and ample-size clawfoot tubs for tandem bathing.
The Michelin-starred restaurant, a modern French find, boasts elite culinary status and is the creation of chef Raymond Blank. The 2-acre kitchen garden harvests some 90 varieties of vegetables and more than 70 type of herbs, all of which find their way into the medley of entrees and dishes. The wine cellar, which houses some 1,000 varietals, has an extensive collection of French wines. Choose to be perfectly pampered as skilled chefs prepare your meals, or go behind kitchen doors and take a lesson in the culinary arts. At the Raymond Blanc Cookery School, students can channel their inner artist by participating in hands-on courses that promise to create exquisite tastes and lasting memories. Beyond the hotel's grounds is the vast English countryside, where you can explore fairytale hamlets, ride sidesaddle on a well-groomed horse, or go shopping for exquisite keepsakes. Delight in all the pleasures of your surroundings, and rest assured that Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons will provide the very best in service and elegant English accommodations.
