In a gem of a Cotswold town, with its green verges, galleries and tea shops, a honey-stone house is home to this first-class restaurant-with-rooms

It has undergone a lavish makeover, with quirky and extravagant interiors and a botanically inspired spa, but this 18th-century mansion in parkland is a welcoming hotel for families and their four-legged friends.

A beautiful, romantic and historic B&B in parkland, this 14th-century monastic manor house, rich in medieval detail and furnished with antiques, once counted Mark Twain, Claude Monet, Edward Elgar and Oscar Wilde among its house guests.

With its wonky roofline, leaded windows, honeyed stone and distinctive black-and-white Tudor wing, this family-run hotel overlooks the green of a much-photographed, quintessential Cotswold village.

Amid water-meadow pasture, this foodie restaurant with beautifully presented rooms and a cookery school are spread across an ancient, timber-frame farmhouse and converted outbuildings.

This sprawling honey-stone building with its tall chimneys and leaded windows offers history, grand rooms and antiques, along with a thoroughly modern spa and 21st-century luxuries.

With inglenook, antiques, beams and brasses, charming, cottage-style bedrooms and an enclosed rear garden, this 16th-century honeyed-stone guest house sits pretty on the high street of a picture-postcard Cotswold town.

Tea and cake await new arrivals at this well-run B&B, with spotless bedrooms in a Victorian former coach house set around a courtyard, each with its own entrance, and a bright little breakfast room
