Corse Lawn House
Corse Lawn, Gloucestershire
A beautifully proportioned Queen Anne-style mansion overlooking a duck pond, this much-loved traditional hotel has a new owner, but, after 48 years, Baba Hine remains, overseeing restaurant, bistro and well-equipped, spacious bedrooms.
Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
A pink brick Georgian former coaching inn overlooking a duck pond with picturesquely weeping willow, this much-loved hotel is traditional in all the best ways. It has been a 48-year labour of love for Baba Hine, who remains at the helm under a new owner, so the happy ship sails on. ‘Service in particular was as good as ever, with some new, young and very effective staff,’ wrote trusted readers. On a third stay, they found the hotel ‘steadily busy, with a nice crowd of people pleasantly enjoying themselves’, which neatly sums up the ambience. The spacious bedrooms are furnished with antiques and supplied with fresh fruit, milk in a fridge, homemade biscuits. Suites have a separate sitting room. Our readers’ ground-floor room was ‘excellent’. If you’re bringing your dog you can dine in the Snug Bar, from the same menu as in the restaurant and more informal bistro. Everything possible is made in house, and locally sourced ingredients appear in dishes such as loin of muntjac with cherry jus. Wine buffs will find plenty of interest. Afternoon tea alfresco is a treat, and if you visit Dazzle the pony make a note: he takes sugar. (Stephen and Pauline Glover)
