Estelle Manor

North Leigh, Oxfordshire

If you want to feel like the lord or lady of the manor then a visit to Estelle Manor, a country hotel and private members' club could be the right choice

The hotel and private members’ club is set in a Grade-II listed landmark house on a 85-acre Oxfordshire estate, surrounded by over 3,000 acres of beautiful parkland and gardens.

The former Eynsham Hall re-opened in May 2023 and has been transformed into a magnificent retreat with 108 rooms and suites, across the Manor House, the Stables and Walled Garden, plus ten Woodland Cottages and three private houses. There’s also four restaurants, a 250 square metre gym, Roman-inspired spa and kids club.

The dining options truly create an exclusive experience.  The Billiards Room offers traditional Chinese feasting; The Brasserie with its all-day dining space serves a menu of seasonal favourites, from Oxford cheddar soufflé and Alaskan king crab, to roasted heirloom cauliflower and beef Wellington. The Glasshouse restaurant’s menu is all about sharing, with family-style dining while The Armoury, a Japanese restaurant, offers a sumptuous menu of sashimi, tempura, maki and robata classics.

For those looking for that health and wellness retreat Estelle Manor hosts a 3,000 square metre spa, Eynsham Baths - complete with a tepidarium bathing hall, five pools, a lounge, ten treatment rooms including couples’ suites, and thermal cabins.

The new 25-acre Adventure Paddock has a wide range of activities from archery, axe throwing and air rifle to birds of prey experiences and Little Landies for the kids. Plus they have partnered with the awe-inspiring Blenheim Palace to offer Adventure Play access, fishing and boating experiences and off-roading in either an exhilarating Polaris Rzr, or a state-of-the-art INEOS Grenadier.

Its onsite retail store, The Muse, is a must for anyone who wishes to take the Estelle Manor experience home.

If you want your retreat to be more exclusive then the annual membership fee, which is £3,600 a year or £1,750 for those under 33, provides a range of benefits and gives access to members-only areas including the lounge, café and study in the Manor House as well as the members terrace.

Estelle Manor is a sister property to the exclusive London private members club Maison Estelle, which has been developed by Sharan Pasricha, the founder of Ennismore.
