Do you specialise in countryside experiences in England?

Yes, Ellington is uniquely focused on crafting culturally rich journeys into England’s most storied countryside. From private estates in the Cotswolds to garden tours, literary trails and riverbank escapes, we curate deeply immersive moments far from the crowds.

Can you arrange a trip that starts in London and moves into the countryside?

What types of countryside experiences do you offer?

We offer access to private estates, RHS-led garden tours, literary and historic trails, countryside cooking, wine pairing, helicopter day trips, and exclusive-use manor houses. All experiences are personalised and never off-the-shelf.

Can you support cultural travel in London too?

Can you support executive assistants or travel advisors?

Yes. We regularly work with assistants, estate managers and trusted travel advisors to deliver on-brand, seamless journeys for their principals. We offer white-labeled materials and discreet, on-call service throughout the trip.

Do you offer day trips or short stays?

Yes. Whether you're in London for a few days or planning a countryside escape, we can design high-impact itineraries, even as one-day experiences, centred around culture, heritage, gastronomy, or leisure.

What’s included in an Ellington itinerary?

Each journey is custom-built and may include private hosts, chauffeurs, cultural guides, chefs, wellness experts and full concierge coordination. We design around the moments you value most, from the unexpected to the unforgettable.
