Cotswold House Hotel

Overlooking the achingly pretty high street of Chipping Camden, this Regency-era hotel is stuffed with mod cons – even the communal loos have flatscreen TVs. A grand spiral staircase whisks guests up to accommodation with giant beds and Bang & Olufsen TVs, and each room has unique décor – the battered leather chairs in ours gave it a gents’ club feel. Under new management, staff are energetic and helpful. Downstairs is a maze of public rooms, including a modern bistro serving first-rate fare and a part-time fine dining restaurant and function room. For those seeking romance or privacy, the hotel stretches back to include two acres of well-groomed gardens with the cottage accommodation that includes two swanky suites with private hot tubs as well as a small adults-only spa with a hammam and hydrotherapy pool – the perfect place to soothe away the aches brought about by extensive Cotswolds sight-seeing.
