“Eclectic, eccentric – a one off converted coaching inn. Think padded leather walls, silver beds, copper free standing baths. A London red bus sits decoratively in the garden. The two restaurants serve traditional British or Thai food. Best for wacky weekends away.”

Hotel review

Reception – a double-decker bus – is the first clue that this old coaching inn is different. In the garden: palm trees and pastiche statues; the glamorous bar: champagne on tap and a stuffed brown bear dangling from the beams; the restaurant: padded pink walls and leopard print carpet. Get the picture? The wonderfully wacky bedrooms are just as fun. A one off.
