Once again, we look forward to another great evening at Danesfield House. Again, we are collaborating with our friends from the Confrérie du Sabre d’Or to add to the event.General Manager Alex Robertson and his team look forward to welcoming the Chilterns Bailliage for this fantastic event at Danesfield House Hotel & Spa.
It is our Christmas event of 2026 and should be a finale to a great Chilterns Chaine year. Located between Marlow and Henley, this stunning “Quintessentially British” country house hotel sits high on a plateau above the River Thames in 65 acres of landscaped gardens and is just 30 minutes from London. Constructed in locally quarried rock chalk and completed in 1901, this historic Mansion was built in the Italian Renaissance style as probably one of the last great family homes of the period. The House was subsequently requisitioned by the war office to become the Centre for Allied Photographic Intelligence of RAF Medmenham during the Second World War, before opening in its current guise as a luxury hotel in 1991. 2016 saw the hotel celebrate its 25th Anniversary.
Executive Chef Danny Little has produced a classical menu with wine pairings, and it promises to be an outstanding evening. Danny is exceptionally passionate about the food he creates and takes great pride in delivering a memorable dining experience for our clients and their guests.
For those who would like to make a weekend of it, Danesfield House has rooms available currently with use of the exclusive multiple award-winning Spa facilities at the on-site Spa Illuminata Danesfield House. Please Book through the website or call reception and quote Chaine 2026 event at time of booking. Classic rooms are £299 including B&B.
