Enjoy your trip to the Cotswolds? This romantic and rural area of southern England has long been a favorite for London locals to escape from it. And if your budget doesn’t actually have it, we have found a country grounds and farmhouse just right to fit your bills on your weekend. These are the best luxury hotels in the Cotswolds for your boogie weekend escape.
As far as luxury country houses go, Lucknam Park Hotel & Spa has a Swank Factor for a few days. Set on 500 acres of Paradian Mansions from the 1720s, this rather large mansion has the charm of Gatsby to anyone wanting to go back in time. And despite its historic roots, the hotel offers all the mod cons you’ll expect from a hotel, including in-room WiFi, flat-screen TVs, and all the important minibars for late-night soaking.
Without mentioning Soho Farm House in Oxfordshire, the list of the most appealing escapes for the Cotswolds is not complete. The Member Club located in Chipping Norton is open to non-member guests as long as they are willing to pay the premium. However, regardless of money, SoHo farmers are, so to speak, “things.” Given the exclusiveness of the private member club, it definitely rubs your shoulders with celebrities. But if your trip is aesthetic driven, look no further. Details are not overlooked in this typical Cotswold escape.
If there are fewer fashionable elements and fewer comfort and isolation, check in on the weekends with Double Red Duke. Located in the village of Cranfield, this cozy country hideaway is located in a 16th-century stone country home surrounded by lush gardens. With cozy log fire and delicious pub glove, this is one of our top picks to be a lower local experience in the Cotswolds (still luxurious!).
Hidden neatly in the castle village village, the Manor House is a dreamy Cotswold escape for absolute luxury. This is where you can rub shoulders with the fashionable weekend crowd that left London behind for R+R in peace and tranquility. Here at Manor House, you also have the best options for fine dining (and drinking!). If the weather is good, take your time to explore the property. The well-maintained gardens are the perfect backdrop for this typical British escape.
What once began as a humble culinary school in Gloucestershire is now a full-fledged retreat style escape. So you should believe that the food is *chef’s kiss*! Time feels like a village in a village, leaving behind the nostalgia of visiting earlier in another life. It’s where you need at least a few days to get away, and to feel the full effect (and by which we mean magic!)
For green thumbs and garden enthusiasts, there’s no need to look for a visit to the Barnsley home. This iconic country house transformed the garden into an absolute oasis. It features vegetable gardens, statues, wild flower garden beds and trimmed hedges. The hotel gardens are considered the best in all of England, so stay for a while in spring or summer.
With a Michelin-starred chef and quiet calm, Whatley Manor is the best choice on this list for an adult vacation. Perhaps there is no place to relax and relax, incorporating the tranquility of the gardens and grounds. As part of a highly talked about dining experience, guests are invited to the kitchen. It is this experiential offering that distinguishes Whatley Manor from other rural sites nearby.
With a typical British croquet lawn, tennis courts and billiard rooms, Slaughters Manor House is as stylish as it gets. With its country chic interior and luxurious finish, this hotel truly feels like a treat of the senses. Be prepared for all the romances your heart can take in this idyllic environment, as it’s a special favorite for the couple.
The Rigon Arms Hotel dates back to the 14th century, has had an impressive list of visitors over the years. I stayed here like Elizabeth Taylor and Charles. A long list of royal visitors has been signing guestbooks over the years (hundreds!)
As the only 5 star hotel in Gloucestershire, we believe he has made the best savings in the end! Ellenboro Park is a 15th century mansion located at the gateway to the Cotswolds in Cheltenham. As one of the best maintained mansions, you can expect to feel like you’ve travelled back in time and back when you go on a journey of space and time. Think of a wooden fireplace, original antiques, well-maintained gardens, afternoon tea offerings, and ample grounds for a walk.
