The Manor Leadership Board
8–12 guests · about 2.5 hours from New York
A one-night Tudor manor buyout for a board of 8–12 — great room, library, and private dining; farm-to-table meals; wifi and a portable screen for working sessions. About 2.5 hours from Manhattan. Your board only — no shared lobby. One outcome: a quiet overnight to finish the work.
Where you stay
One-night exclusive buyout of a private Tudor manor in the Connecticut hills. Eight private rooms for single-occupancy overnight — boards of 8 sleep on site; boards of 9–12 add nearby partner lodging or keep the day extended. Great room, sunroom, library, and dining room for sessions and meals — no other guests, no shared lobby. Meals are farm-to-table on site.

FAQ
How does the booking process work?
Pick a retreat that fits your team and tell us when you’re coming and how many. You’re then contacted by a local partner, who adjusts every detail with you and sends a custom quote covering the house, meals in the package, and everything else included. Once it feels right, you’re booked — one partner, nothing left to assemble.
How do I pay for my stay?
You pay Vantly, not the venue or a third party. After the quote is approved we send a secure payment link (card or bank transfer, depending on the booking). The balance and any deadline are on the quote so there’s no surprise invoice from someone else.
Will I be asked for a security deposit?
Most full-house buyouts hold a refundable security deposit against damage or extra charges. Whether it’s required, the amount, and when it’s released are listed on your quote — usually a card hold or separate charge, refunded after checkout if everything’s in order.
What are the cancellation terms?
Cancellation terms are on your quote and depend on how close you are to arrival and what the host requires. In general: cancel early and you keep most of what you’ve paid (minus a small fee); closer in, less is refundable; very late cancellations or no-shows are usually non-refundable. If we have to cancel for reasons outside your control, you get a full refund or a rebook.
