Longueville Manor Hotel – Longueville Manor Hotel

Overview

Longueville Manor Hotel rests on the edge of St Saviour, Jersey, and stands as the island’s only 5-star boutique country-house hotel. Tucked within extensive, mature gardens, this 14th-century manor delivers traditional hospitality with a refined modern polish: elegant but inviting, full of character yet quietly luxurious. It’s a sought-after address for couples and food lovers planning a one- or two-night gourmet break in the Channel Islands, with St Helier’s main streets less than 10 minutes away by car or taxi. The sense of exclusivity, paired with graceful professionalism, makes the Longueville Manor Hotel a distinctive base for those who savour both culinary and scenic pleasures.

Eat

The restaurant at Longueville Manor Hotel is led by executive head chef Andrew Baird, whose tenure is matched by his passion for Jersey-provenance. Dishes on the daily-changing menu showcase the best from the manor’s kitchen gardens and trusted local suppliers, with seafood and prime meats at the fore. Expect a modern British and European style, balancing classical technique with lightness and clarity. Flavours are direct and unfussy, letting ingredients lead; sauces are elegantly judged, presentation refined but not overwrought. AA three Rosettes and consistent critical acclaim reflect the kitchen’s craft. Service in the panelled Oak Room or bright Garden Room is warm and attentive. The wine list is extensive, and a lunch menu alongside tasting and à la carte evening choices ensures flexibility, whether the mood calls for a leisurely dinner or an appealing casual bite. Afternoon tea is also a highlight, celebrated for its quality and tranquil setting.

Sleep

Each guest room and suite at Longueville Manor Hotel is individually designed, blending classic English decor with fresh, contemporary touches—think crisp linens, antique or bespoke furnishings, and plush fabrics. Some overlook the gardens, others nestle under ancient beams or open onto private terraces. Bathrooms are spacious and modern, and thoughtful extras add to the sense of comfort. For couples, the Manor feels subtly romantic; for families, interconnecting and suite options work well. Whichever you choose, the calm and insulation from the bustle outside help transform a short escape into a proper unwind.

Retreat

Time at Longueville Manor gravitates between the gardens, heated outdoor pool, and spa, where guests can indulge in tailored treatments or simply relax in peaceful surrounds. Tennis courts, woodland walks, croquet, and the summer kitchen garden add gentle leisure appeal. The pretty beaches and cliff paths of southeast Jersey are reachable within a 15-minute drive, while St Helier’s markets, shops, and museums are just 1.5 miles away. Ferries and flights touch down at Jersey Airport, 20 minutes by car from the hotel. A weekend here combines country-house lounging, fine dining, and scenic Channel Islands adventure—the epitome of a gourmet retreat.
