THE HOLIDAY inspired hotel rooms? Check. Free fudge after check in? Check.
If both of those have you tempted, here’s everything you need to know about a stay at The Feathered Inn.
What is The Feathered Nest like?
This 350 year-old former malthouseturned-inn with a fine dining restaurant is a cosy bolthole in a chocolate box village overlooking the rolling hills of the Evenlode Valley.
What are the rooms like?
The inn has four tastefully decorated rooms where homemade cookies and fudge will await you.
For those wanting a Kate Winslet moment, inspired by movie, The Holiday, the inn features a gorgeous honey-coloured cottage that sleeps four guests.
It features flagstone flooring, an open fireplace and a huge freestanding bath.
Rooms start from £235 per night, including breakfast. Stays at the cottage are from £350 per night. See thefeatherednestinn.co.uk.
Dogs are allowed at the cottage for an additional £25.
What is there to eat and drink at the hotel?
The inn’s award winning 3-AA Rosette restaurant sources the best seasonal ingredients, such as Welsh lamb and Yorkshire rhubarb and is where head chef James Erasmus works his magic.
Breakfast can be served in either the pretty garden room or the grounds.
What else is there?
The nearby village of Stow-on-the-Wold is a market town featuring quaint antique shops and traditional tea rooms.
David Beckham‘s favourite sausage roll can be found at The Cotswold Guy in the village of Guiting Power.
The Feathered Nest has lots of information about circular walks or, if you’re up for it, take on The Cotswold Way – a 102-mile hiking route between Chipping Campden and Bath.
It’s surely one of the best kept secrets in the Cotswolds.
Is it family friendly?
The cottage fits 4 people which families will want to book to make their stay easy.
Is there access for guests with disabilities?
The ground floor of the Inn can be uneven and requires the use of short staircases throughout the building.
Guests that need a room with easy access should contact the bookings team to discuss requirements for the stay.
However, there is level access to the dining terrace and the Garden Room, although guests should let the booking team know that easy access is needed.
