Lys de Cristal (Crystal Lys)
On reservation this offer includes :
Le Gavroche
 Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux in town (London)
Founded in 1967 by Albert and Michel Roux, Le Gavroche quickly became a benchmark for fine dining à la française in London’s ever so exclusive Mayfair. To perpetuate the family tradition, Michel Roux Jr. took over in the kitchen in 1991. A new look, a fresh take, a new burst of creativity, combined with the incomparable recipes of his father and uncle - such as the Soufflé Suissesse -, all further cemented the restaurant’s international renown. A seasonal cuisine in which he doesn’t hesitate to showcase the very best of French produce - Challans duck, lamb from the Pyrenees - and the finest vintages. A truly unique diner experience in London.
(Lys offer valid throughout the year except for weekends (“weekend is defined as the period from Friday evening to Sunday noon included))

Majestic fountains and little wooden bridges on the grounds, silky soft fabrics and old-style baths in the suites - here there is no lack of those delightful little details that really count. You will appreciate your own exile between a game of lawn tennis and a stroll through the forest amongst hundred-year old sycamores and oaks.

Summer Lodge Country House & Spa

Set in four acres of idyllic gardens, with a croquet lawn, indoor pool, health spa, and a collection of richly furnished guest rooms and suites, it’s a small world into itself - and one you won’t want to leave.
