This Christmas, some lucky people will be spending the holiday before a roaring blaze, in a house aglow with festive lights and snuggled under blankets of snow. Delicious tidbits and wonderful drinks will be passed around while delightful company, including some new friends, enjoy traditional party games, fresh country air, surprise presents and a series of feasts prepared by unseen but very capable hands.
No, not Grandma and all the Aunties in the kitchen. These fantastic meals will be prepared by professional chefs at the top of their game.
A British country house Christmas is one of those fantasy breaks lots of people dream about. This year, why not let someone else put up the tree and wrestle with the lights? These are the Christmas breaks offered by hotels we've visited and enjoyed. Though this feature is based on 2010 breaks, the pattern of Christmas in a British Country House Hotel doesn't change much from year to year.
