Christmas at Thorngrove Manor
Filed under: Journeys
Given that summer weather is in full swing in South Australia it might seem like a counter-intuitive choice for Christmas but Thorngrove Manor in Stirling, Adelaide makes a compelling argument for it with their 12 days of Christmas package. Thorngrove Manor is an amazing property, a European-style manor with baroque towers and fantasy turrets and grand gardens. The interior is full of antiques and the decor lends itself to a holiday theme. For the 12 Days of Christmas each room is decorated with evergreen wreaths scented with Frankincense and Siberian Fir and seasonal decorative accents. The package includes one night in the romantic fortified Castle Chambers accommodation for two with open log fire and spa bath, a traditional English breakfast and a private Christmas themed gourmet dinner for two by candlelight, a Crabtree & Evelyn Christmas fragrance gift included. The package costs $1,160 AUD per room, per night (around $915).
