The Public Rooms are well designed and decorated with beautiful furniture, objets d'art and paintings. Most hotels provide a Drawing Room, Library, Conservatory and Bar. We have chosen hotels which allow you to benefit from privacy, enjoyment and relaxation.

Dining Rooms all have excellent menus and wine lists, many boasting the AA Red Rosette Award and some with Michelin Stars, all supported by exemplary and quality waiter service.

Bedrooms, the majority with suites, are considered an extremely important feature of your stay and we have selected spacious rooms which include sumptuous comfort in an environment of elegance. Andrew Wigram has ensured that most of these hotels can provide large king size beds. Bathrooms have their own character and some suites have the bath within the bedroom. There is even an opportunity to bathe on the balcony!

Health Spas, which provide treatments of pampered luxury and relaxation, can be found at many of the hotels, and usually include a swimming pool, steam room, sauna, jacuzzi and gym.

Those hotels in the countryside have well maintained and landscaped gardens, encouraging tranquil escapism, some with outdoor swimming pools, croquet lawns and tennis courts. Many with kitchen gardens and greenhouses help enhance dining menus with fresh produce.
