Gravetye Manor lunch and garden tour
Country Life is hosting a luncheon and garden tour at the beautiful Gravetye Manor in West Sussex in May


Gravetye Manor, the multi-award-winning hotel and restaurant in the heart of the West Sussex countryside, is the glorious setting for an exclusive Country Life readers' luncheon and garden tour, on May 6. Hosted by the Editor Mark Hedges and Gardens Editor Kathryn Bradley-Hole, in the company of Tom Coward, Gravetye Manor's head gardener (and regular contributor to Country Life), our luncheon is timed for the moment when the famous 130-year-old gardens burgeon with blossoms and spring bulbs.
Tea and coffee will be offered when guests arrive at 11am, before the garden tour begins at 11.30am. At 1pm, Pol Roger Champagne will be served before the three-course luncheon commences. Tickets cost £95 per person: telephone 01342 810567 or email events@gravetyemanor.co.uk, advising of dietary requirements or accessibility queries. Directions will be sent out prior to the event. Places are limited, so booking is essential.
Gravetye is also offering Reader Day guests a special price on accommodation for one or two nights before or after the event. To book, telephone 01342 810567 and quote ‘Country Life Reader Day'.

Exquisite houses, the beauty of Nature, and how to get the most from your life, straight to your inbox.
Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by HRH The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
