Ultimate Luxury: United Kingdom

Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons

For centuries, the bucolic English countryside has inspired artists and writers with its rolling green fields, rustic farm life and generally slower pace of life. Few places in the world reflect the changing seasons as vibrantly as the sleepy British countryside, and nowhere is this more evident than the garden county of Oxfordshire.

Nestled in the picturesque Oxfordshire landscape, and close to the town of Oxford itself, the Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons is without a doubt one of the country’s most exclusive and classically opulent country hotels. Boasting haute cuisine and an atmosphere of bygone luxury, the property dates back to the 15th century and guests who stay here will enjoy acres of manicured gardens and a design that evokes English classicism with a maximalist French twist.

The Balmoral Hotel

A flourishing bastion of traditional luxury, Edinburgh is one of Europe’s most exciting travel destinations. The city is renowned for its established arts scene, attracting thousands of culture lovers each year through events such as the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the similarly eponymous Edinburgh International Film Festival. Scotland is an ancient and rugged landscape, and the city is the perfect base from which to explore everything on offer.

Self-described as a love letter to Scotland, the Balmoral Hotel not only boasts a royal namesake but also offers one of the UK’s most unfettered luxury experiences. With a minimalist-leaning heritage design, the hotel’s rooms and suites are just as opulent as the glamorous communal spaces including world-class eateries and a sumptuous bar that is perfect for a post-exploration nightcap.

The architecture of London tells the story of the city’s past, and the best way to absorb it’s most impressive buildings is via a private helicopter tour. Fly over bridges and around the spires of the capital’s tallest towers as you survey the streets from the sky.
