Garden Visit : Le Manoir Aux Quat' Saisons






What's a Graduation without a nice celebratory dinner afterwards? Close to Oxford, Le Manoir Aux Quat' Saison was our favourite haunt when visiting our son. They have a Michelin-starred kitchen and beautiful, comfortable, individually designed hotel rooms. Very expensive, a bit too expensive compared to anything in Europe, but nothing in England is cheap for the time being. The hotel maintains a garden providing not only healthy greens for the kitchen, but also lots of photo opportunities for garden lovers, with its several garden rooms, ponds and strategically placed bronze sculptures.
