Join us for the whole of your Christmas break or, to coordinate your visits to friends or family, stay with us for two, three or four days during or just after Christmas.
Le Manoir and its grounds will be beautifully decorated with festive displays and warm fires will greet you throughout. Each of the guest bedrooms will have its own individually decorated Christmas tree and, of course, on Christmas Eve a Christmas gift will be delivered to everyone. The highlight of each day will be the festive menus inspired by French Noël and English seasonal traditions, created by Raymond Blanc, Gary Jones and Benoit Blin.
With a variety of activities available for you, do as much or as little as you wish to make your Christmas one to remember.
Our three-night package can be booked online, for all other reservations please contact us on 01844 278881.
