(PRWEB) July 25, 2004 -- Historic Country House the Langtry Manor Hotel in Bournemouth http://www.langtrymanor.co.uk is the former home of King Edward VII of England and his mistress Lillie Langtry. Built in 1877, Edward wanted a residence that was discreet and away from public attention.
The former home of Britain's celebrated romantic couple has been restored to it's former glory by the Howard family who have run and owned the hotel for the last 25 years. This warm and inviting home of Edward VII and Lillie Langtry (also known as the Jersey Lilly) is not only steeped in history and romance, but offers the highest standards of award winning food and personal service. All the bedrooms are individually designed many which feature four-poster beds and Jacuzzi baths. Lillie paid particular attention to Edward's suite when designing the House. A spacious room, with a high ceiling, contains the royal bed alongside a beautiful wooden fireplace. Lillie's own suite includes a heart shaped corner bath and romantic balcony. http://www.langtrymanor.co.uk/bournemouth_hotel.htm
