The retreats within this collection are located across England, Scotland and Wales, often in rural or coastal settings where local produce and seasonal menus play an important role. Some are restaurants with rooms at their heart, while others are standalone boutique retreats that happen to sit just a short stroll from a well known restaurant or fine-dining pub.
Dining styles vary across the collection — from refined, ingredient-led cooking to more relaxed, informal menus — but each retreat allows you to enjoy a good meal close by, without the need to plan additional travel at the end of the evening.
Browsing by collection allows you to focus on the experience first, whether that’s a countryside restaurant with a small number of rooms, a food-led pub, or a boutique retreat ideally placed for fine dining nearby, before choosing the stay that best suits your plans.
