Ellenborough Park
Cotswolds, United Kingdom
- Style Fifteenth-century thoroughbred
- Setting Racy Prestbury
Like any champion racehorse, Ellenborough Park has an aristocratic lineage, sleek good looks, and highly favourable odds. Keen flutterers will enjoy the views – rooms overlook the finishing line at Cheltenham Racecourse.
Cowley Manor
Cotswolds, United Kingdom
- Style Funked-up stately home

Barnsley House
Cotswolds, United Kingdom
- Style Super-stylish manor house
- Setting Gorgeous Gloucestershire gardens
The ultra-cool modern furniture doesn’t seem remotely out of place in 17th-century Barnsley House; this spa-enhanced boutique hotel is set in beautiful countryside, less than two hours from London.

This stately Cotswolds country manor knocks the stuffing out of traditional rural retreats, with all the boutique-hotel trimmings you'd expect of a designer pad in town.
Cotswolds88 Hotel
Cotswolds, United Kingdom
- Style Versace in verdant surrounds
- Setting In a quiet country town
Cotswolds88 Hotel is a temple to Italian design. Gloriously over-the-top touches such as PVC-backed chairs and chrome mannequins vie for attention with the hotel’s own Palladian backdrop, and the result is a space with its own cheeky sense of humour.
The Montpellier Chapter
Cotswolds, United Kingdom
- Style Modern makeover
- Setting Listed Georgian villa
A slick, contemporary take on the 'bedrooms plus wine bar and bistro' formula, the Montpellier Chapter in Cheltenham offers super service, spa pampering and all mod cons in architecturally revamped surroundings.
