John Torode and Lisa Faulkner share pics from luxury Oxfordshire getaway

From Prima

Lisa Faulkner has been thoroughly treated by John Torode over Valentine's weekend –and was whisked off to Raymond Blanc's high-end hotel Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons in Oxfordshire.

Both Lisa and John shared pictures from the gorgeous getaway on their Instagram feeds.

Lisa posted a montage of the country escape, showing her outside the pretty hotel as well as an image of the couple dressed up in their finest for dinner.

Lisa wrote: "Thoroughly spoilt again yesterday by my husband @johntorodecooks thank you!! @belmondlemanoir."

She looked ultra-pretty in a tiered orange dress with an on-trend wide belt to finish.

John also shared pictures of the couple's epic breakfast in bed, which put our Marmite on toast to shame.

He wrote: "Who doesn’t like breakfast in bed . Bloody loved it with my @lisafaulknercooks lovely morning on a stormy day . #stormy #breakfastinbed #birthday."

As well as being a Valentine's treat, the trip was also a celebration for Lisa's birthday, as the star turns 48 on 19 February.

And Belmond le Manoir is certainly a treat. The hotel is a 15th century manor tucked away in picturesque countryside. Described as a 'culinary retreat', the hotel boasts a two Michelin-starred restaurant headed up by owner Raymond Blanc, who also runs a cookery school there.

The honey-hued manor is warmed by open fires in the winter, while the lush two-acre gardens are an abundance of colour in the summer, making it, as the name suggests, a house for all seasons.

The couple, who host John and Lisa's Weekend Kitchen cooking show together, are obviously fans of heritage buildings; the pair tied the knot in October 2019 at the time Grade II-listed Aynhoe Park in Northamptonshire.

Happy birthday, Lisa!
