Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts

Embrace all things British this St George�s Day with a visit to Luton Hoo Hotel, Golf and Spa in Bedfordshire. A Grade 1 property set in over 1,000 acres of parkland and Capability Brown landscaped gardens, Luton Hoo is a tribute to British history, having hosted eminent figures such as the Queen and Prince Phillip on their Honeymoon, Sir Winston Churchill and Lord Mountbatten. The hotel has also played host to a number of popular British films including Four Weddings and a Funeral, Vanity Fair and the 1999 version of James Bond�s The World is Not Enough.

Luton Hoo will be offering a special St George�s day menu with British-inspired fare on 23 April in the refined setting of The Wernher Restaurant, with Head Chef Kevin Clark dishing-up fond favourites such as Roast Rare Breed Gloucester Old Spot with Bubble & Squeak, Grilled New Season Asparagus with Poached Duck Egg, Dandelion and Burdock Reduction, and Eton Mess, washed down with a selection of fine wines.

Providing the perfect countryside escape, Luton Hoo is easily accessible - a 30 minute train ride from London�s Kings Cross station or a 10 minute drive from Luton Airport. Once checked in, guests can tee-off on the hotel�s 18-hole golf course, unwind in The Spa or take tea on the terrace overlooking the gardens.

Luton Hoo is offering a special St George�s Day package, which includes a three-course lunch or dinner, luxurious overnight accommodation and full English breakfast for �145 per person, per night. Alternatively, lunch or dinner can be booked for �32 per person, subject to availability.
