The sixteenth-century manor sits within an ancient moat, running like a quiet country house just five minutes from Gatwick.
What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The Elizabethan architecture no doubt contributes to Langshott Manor’s sense of peace and quiet, all beamed ceilings, mullioned windows and great heavy doors.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
In residential Surrey lanes outside Horley, with Gatwick airport five minutes away by car.
The rooms
Main-house rooms keep their exposed timber beams and leaded windows. Signature suites add four-poster beds and private decks over the moat.
At the table
The Mulberry Restaurant serves seasonal British dishes, and afternoon tea is poured in the lounge or on the garden terraces.
How it began
The house sheltered evacuees during World War II, then sat abandoned for decades until the Noble family restored it in 1986.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
