WHAT WE LOVE...

It would be a tall call to find a more picturesque setting; in a prime position in the very heart of gloriously picturesque Chipping Campden, Cotswold House Hotel is the essence of honey-stone elegance. Its core is a landmark Regency building that adds to the considerable charms of the little town's handsome high street. Step inside and you're in a splendid hall complete with a welcoming fireplace in a lounge area. There's a restaurant on one side and a bar/bistro offering relaxing seating areas on the other. The main building gives on to a magical garden divided into semi-hidden spaces by cleverly-devised topiary. Follow the principal path fringed by well-planted beds to reach the neatly conceived spa, housed in a former coach house.

THE DETAILS

Location

Don't miss The Gallery at the Guild on Sheep Street; it's filled with works by local artists and there's a traditional silversmith's studio on the floor above it.

Chipping Campden is a pretty town in the heart of the Cotswolds. Hidcote Manor is a short drive away.
By car: around 3 hours from London, and 1 hour 30 minutes from Oxford and Bristol. Free parking on-site.
By train: London Paddington to Moreton-in-Marsh (via Oxford) takes 1 hour 30 minutes. The hotel is a 15-minute drive from the station. thetrainline.com

Style & Character

The hotel suits romantics, Cotswold enthusiasts, visitors with dogs and families (probably in that order). There's live music during afternoon tea at weekends - a sax player on Saturdays and a harpist on Sundays.
