Author: Cotswolds Weekend Breaks
With many people struggling in the recession holidays in England are becoming more popular. The beautiful Cotswolds offer one popular holiday venue, and although many people can’t afford a 2 week holiday, a Cotswolds weekend break is an ideal time and place to relax and recharge your batteries.
The Cotswolds is an area of middle England which includes parts of Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire. Cirencester, Chipping Cambden, Stow on the Wold, Chipping Norton and Burford are all included, and the famous Cotswolds Water Park are all big tourist draws.
The Cotswolds is famous for its sandstone buildings. This stone is a honey colour, and most buildings have been made out of this to give a charming and quintessentially English environment. What is more appealing to most people though is the relaxing pace of life.
You don’t find as many chain stores in the Cotswolds, which is a break from the norm. Instead you will find lots of independent shops, offering a wide variety of crafts, collectables, souvenirs, tempting food stuffs, art and so on and so on.
Finding somewhere to eat or drink is not a problem either. You can have a cup of tea in one of the beautiful tea rooms, or something stronger in one of the old English pubs. You can also eat at one of the cafes for a quick snack or enjoy a 3 course meal in one of the high end restaurants.
For accommodation on your Cotswolds weekend break there are also options available. There are larger hotel chains of course, but if you are going to such a beautiful part of the country such as the Cotswolds, why stay in such a uniform place. There are of course small B and B’s, but they cannot offer the full range of services a Hotel can. So how about a hotel that offers Cotswolds weekend breaks – in the form of special packages but lets you use all of their facilities? The Crown of Crucis - Cotswold Country Hotel is well situated for a Cotswolds weekend break - why not call them on 01285 851806 to see what they have on offer, or visit their site here.

Ever been to the Cotswolds? Its a beauftiful place and I recommend it, but a search on the Internet for Cotswolds luxury hotels reveals a dazzling choice of hotels, inns and b&bs to choose from. It is difficult to know where to stay if you are looking for that special place to stay where you get what you want from your stay.
The Cotswolds offer not only luxury hotels, but luxurious scenery and plenty of fresh air and places to explore. The Cotswolds has many small villages such as Burford and Castle Combe and whilst they are all different, they are all built from the same limestone keeping them all as attractive as each other. The Cotswolds really do make the perfect place for a weekend break in a luxury hotel.
If you are interested in visiting the area then you are going for the scenery, and I can guess at what your idea of a Cotswolds luxury hotel is. Picture the scene. You travel by car and have all the stress of the traffic, but it eases as you near your hotel and you can start to relax.
You pull into the car park – plenty of room there, and go to check in. You are dealt with promptly, but politely and friendly. You are shown to your elegant country house style room and your shoulders start to drop. A quick check of the view reveals open space, perhaps a stream and gentle bird song. This hotel offers real luxury alright.
After freshening up its time for dinner in the restaurant. The ambience is informal and friendly – and the food is to die for. After all, the hotel has won awards, with a dedicated team of chefs determined to offer only the freshest, tastiest seasonal food.
As you relax in the bar with your favourite tipple, perhaps in front of a log fire if it’s winter, or perhaps when there’s a nip in the air, you almost feel like you’re in another world, and you decide to try one of the bar meals the next day, if there’s room after a full breakfast that morning of course.
The Crown of Crucis offers all the above and much more. Visit the official website at Cotswolds Country Hotel or call us on 01285 851806 now to find out more.
