Luxury Hotel Cotswolds
Those who want a peaceful, elegant stay at a luxury hotel in the Cotswolds need look no further than Lords of the Manor, located in Upper Slaughter in Gloucestershire. The area is so well known for its luxury hospitality and upscale atmosphere that it is often referred to as "Poshtershire," and the Lords Hotel fits the designation. This former rectory was built in the 1600s of the honey-colored "Cotswold stone" that underlies the region. With 28 well-appointed rooms, a reputation for exquisite cuisine, and a variety of packages that can include the rental of a classic E-Type Jaguar convertible, the Lords luxury hotel is a prime destination for the discerning Cotswolds traveler.
No matter what time of year you visit this Area of Outstanding Beauty, the largest in England and Wales, you'll find spectacular scenery and plenty of activities. April in England is celebrated by the poets, but it's also the time of the Cheltenham Jazz Festival. May brings activities such as horse trials and the rustic merriment of cheese rolling (and don't get so caught up rolling the famous Double Gloucestershire cheeses that you forget to eat them!) Activities and attractions, farm markets and festivals continue throughout the Cotswolds summer.
What can be cozier in winter than sitting by a roaring fire in a luxury hotel? Christmas and New Year's packages at the Lords Hotel include champagne receptions, black-tie gala dinners, carolers and mince pies, clay pigeon shoots and casino nights in a country house atmosphere that will create a memorable holiday.
