Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Cowley
A Victorian mansion with a boldly contemporary interior transformation, Cowley Manor combines 30 idiosyncratic rooms with 55 acres of Capability Brown-esque grounds and an exceptional spa complex with outdoor pools fed by natural springs. One of the Cotswolds' most distinctive stays.
Chipping Campden
An elegant Regency townhouse at the top of Chipping Campden's magnificent High Street, with 29 rooms, a superb spa, and a walled garden restaurant. The town itself — one of the Cotswolds' finest — is on your doorstep.
Barnsley Village
Once the private home of garden designer Rosemary Verey, Barnsley House is a supremely refined 18-room hotel surrounded by one of England's most celebrated gardens. The spa, cinema, and kitchen garden restaurant make it a destination in its own right.
Upper Slaughter
A 17th-century Cotswold stone rectory in the impossibly picturesque village of Upper Slaughter, Lords of the Manor offers 26 individually furnished rooms, three acres of gardens, and a restaurant of real quality. Romance and seclusion are guaranteed.
Broadway
One of England's oldest coaching inns, this magnificent 16th-century hostelry in the showpiece village of Broadway has been welcoming guests since 1532 and today combines its extraordinary heritage with a superb spa and AA Rosette restaurant.
Lower Slaughter
A beautifully restored 17th-century inn in the chocolate-box village of Lower Slaughter, with 31 rooms of genuine character, a mill stream running past the gardens, and an award-winning farm-to-fork restaurant. Walking distance to both Slaughter villages.
