    • The Black Swan at Oldstead
      Hotel Oldstead, Yorkshire, England
      9 /10
      The Michelin-starred jewel in Tommy Banks’ crown remains one of the best fine-dining experiences in the country. Those oft-touted promises of ‘foraging’ and ‘locally sourced’ couldn’t be more genuine here, with the old pub sitting on the large family farm. Nine smart rooms (with baths) and a truffle-topped omelette for breakfast extend the indulgent experience. Read expert review

    • Wild Thyme & Honey
      Hotel Cirencester, Cotswolds, England
      7 /10
      This Cotswold pub with rooms is, confusingly, a venue with two names. The bucolically dubbed Wild Thyme & Honey part is a modern property that houses the guest rooms. Adjoining it is the Crown, an old inn much-loved locally. The setting is so-so, but rooms are sleek and the food is delicious and well-priced. Read expert review
