Tetbury, Gloucestershire, England

This wisteria-draped former 16th-century stone townhouse fronts bustling Long Street among antique shops and boutiques, but its thick walls, enclosed garden and inviting inner 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 king-size (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 while others have a tub and separate walk-in shower. All have premium toiletries. Additional accommodations include TV, 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 serving English 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.
