Good Hotel Guide Review

The River Eye drifts through the gardens of this Cotswold stone former rectory, once home to the Witts family, rectors and then lords of Upper Slaughter, run as a hotel for the past 50 years. It is luxurious but unstuffy (‘welcoming, comfortable and relaxing’, said one reader), with a wide choice of bedrooms in the main building, converted barn and granary. Suites have a separate lounge, some with a sofa bed. The style is easy on the eye, blending a traditional country house feel with contemporary furnishings and carefully chosen artwork. You can have a light lunch in the bar, take afternoon tea in the lounge or on the lawn, discover the walled garden, the lake, and the bog garden with giant rhubarb. Head chef Charles Smith sources the finest ingredients, whether on the doorstep or from farther afield, for his tasting and à la carte menus, with separate choices for vegans. Typical dishes might include grilled Herdwick lamb rump, spiced aubergine purée, carrots, chickpeas, minted yogurt; gnocchi with confit garlic, crushed peas, seared lettuce. Home-made biscuits and country walks await your four-legged friend. (RM)
