Nestling in acres of tranquil gardens and wooded parkland, Menzies Flitwick Manor is a classic Georgian country house hotel located near the historic village of Woburn, which boasts over 200 listed buildings, as well as stylish restaurants, pubs and shops.

You could visit the hotel to spend time in relaxation or to enjoy the sauna, a game of croquet or an intimate meal in the comfort of the AA Rosette restaurant. The décor is elegant with fine antique and period furniture and carpeted floors.

Sample traditional British fare created from local and seasonal produce, whenever possible. Start with a bowl of mussels before moving on to a lovely game terrine with homemade marmalade and toasted brioche. Mains consist of grilled fillets of lemon sole and confit of Barbary duck while desserts take in warm pecan pie with homemade vanilla ice cream.

There is a comprehensive range of wine to complement the dishes you order. Weddings and private functions are organised beautifully.
