Tetbury, Gloucestershire, England

This wisteria-draped former 16th-century stone townhouse is set on the bustling Long Street among boutique and antique shops, but its walled garden, thick walls and inviting spaces create a quiet refuge that is equal parts country house and modern chic. Relax in the cozy sitting room next to the stone fireplace or enjoy the vibrant garden from the adjacent terrace.

Spacious guest rooms have double (or two twin) beds, and each is individually decorated in contemporary country style with bold wallpaper. Some of the en suite bathrooms have a shower over the bathtub and others have a tub and separate walk-in shower. All have premium toiletries. Additional accommodations include T.V., Wi-Fi and tea and coffee-making facilities.

Enjoy an abundant breakfast buffet of homemade muesli, berry compote, yogurt, fruit, homemade jams and more, as well as poached eggs, French toast and kedgeree, a classic baked fish, egg, curry and rice dish. The hotel also has a bar that serves casual foods – salads, mussels and more – and a formal Garden Room restaurant with classics like slow-cooked pork belly.

The hotel has been recognized with a Green Tourism Bronze Award. An accolade that reflects its commitment to sustainability. Practices include reducing waste, composting, recycling, implementing energy efficiency initiatives, sourcing local food and drink and conserving water.
