Estelle Manor, the latest venture by Sharan Pasricha, is proving an impressive addition to the private members’ club scene
When it comes to high-end, private country clubs, those in the know are talking about one venue at the moment, namely, Estelle Manor. This stunning new venue opened last year and it has quickly gained a highly desirable reputation. Estelle Manor was acquired by Sharan Pasricha in 2018. The property was previously the home of Eynsham Hall, but it has been developed with unrivalled attention to detail and exquisite care. The result is a club that is now considered to be among the very best in the market.
Sharan Pasricha is the Founder of Ennismore, which is a global hospitality developer, and Estelle Manor has been designed as the ‘countryside companion’ to private members’ club, Maison Estelle in Mayfair, which is frequented by members of the Royal family.
The Oxfordshire property is situated in an enviable position. It is surrounded by beautiful countryside, but also within easy reach of London. It is just an hour away from Heathrow too, which is ideal for those flying in from abroad.
The property is part of an expansive estate of 60 acres. In terms of accommodation, its suites include original features and lavish interior design, which encompasses bespoke dining tables and other luxury furnishings.
Estelle Manor provides a welcome break from city-life, with outdoor activities such as archery and falconry available. Although, some members may just look forward to enjoying a long and peaceful walk through the beautiful parkland of the estate.
The impressive fitness space at Estelle Manor includes a fully equipped gym and also padle courts for those wanting to enjoy some sport. Meanwhile, members are eagerly awaiting the opening of the Eynsham Baths Spa, which is likely to become one of the best spas in the country. The Roman-inspired 3,000 sq metre spa will include a vast tepidarium bathing hall, five pools, a lounge and ten treatment areas. The treatment rooms will incorporate thermal suites, as well as suites that are specifically designed for couples who wish to enjoy a treatment together.
The dining options at Estelle Manor present a variety of choices. The Glasshouse is a family setting, which even welcomes dogs, and this restaurant is positioned within a walled garden. Meanwhile, the Billiards Room serves traditional Chinese dishes, with The Brasserie on hand for those wishing to enjoy a wide-ranging menu that includes seasonal favourites.
With its impressive facilities and splendid interior design, Estelle Manor has certainly made its mark on the private members’ club scene. It is proving to be a very welcome addition to the market and another success story for Sharan Pasricha, who is also the driving force behind Gleneagles and Maison Estelle.
