Cocooned by the centuries and a three-acre award-winning garden, complete with moat, is Langshott Manor. As if by some historical sleight of hand it stands just eight minutes drive from Gatwick airport but once within its embrace, the strident sounds of today ebb in diminuendo; only far, far away might you catch the occasional reminder of our age. The illusion of time in reverse continues inside the house. Two cottages dating from the 1500s, were joined by the Victorians, adding a bell tower and a mews. The eccentricities of the building give great character to the rooms which a recent refurbishment has exploited to great effect. You can be reassured the facilities are luxuriously right up to the minute. The oak beamed dining room will tempt you to an array of modern European cooking with the emphasis firmly on local produce. An enchanted place, so near and yet so far from London, Brighton and the South East.
