Itinerary Highlights

The journey, day by day.

A representative sketch. Every hour is re-composed for the party we serve — but the register does not change.

  1. Days One & Two

    Oxford

    Two nights in a private set at an Oxford college; dinner in hall on high table, a Bodleian Library visit after closing, and a private tutorial with a fellow of your choosing.

  2. Day Three

    A country house between cities

    A night at a working country estate we work with — a shoot lunch or a quiet afternoon in the library, as you prefer.

  3. Day Four

    Salisbury

    A private tour of Salisbury Cathedral with the dean, ending at the Chapter House to see the finest of the four surviving Magna Cartas.

  4. Day Five

    Canterbury

    A privately guided tour of Canterbury Cathedral, followed by attendance at Choral Evensong in the Quire and a supper in the precincts hosted by a member of the chapter.

  5. Day Six

    Return to London

    A morning at Leeds Castle or Sissinghurst, then chauffeured return to Mayfair for a final night.
