Where to stay

Some of the wonderful places to stay that we frequently recommended.

The Close Hotel £££££

  • Cotswolds
  • Boutique

A stone’s throw from Tetbury’s iconic Market House, the Close Hotel dates back to the 16th century, when it was constructed as a private residence. Its fantastic central location means it is within walking distance of the town’s best restaurants, as well as the famous Royal Highgrove Shop.

Dormy House £££££

  • Cotswolds
  • Boutique

From the 17th century, Dormy House was a working farm whose owners cultivated the surrounding land. In the 1940s, it caught the eye of the neighbouring Broadway Golf Club who bought it and changed the name to Dormy House after their favourite golfing term, (a ‘dormy’ is an unbeatable round). In 1977, it passed to the same family that has owned it ever since. With a passion for style, service and hospitality, they have turned it into one of the area’s best-loved hotels.

The Fish Hotel £££££

  • Cotswolds
  • Boutique

Legend has it that The Benedictine monks of Pershore Abbey kept and cured the abbey’s fish stocks in caves hewn into the hillside, which soon became known as ‘Fish Hill’. The monks may be long gone, but the name they left behind here lives on. Today the hillside is home to The Fish Hotel, a new kind of value-driven, back-to-nature bolt-hole with a little touch of luxury.
