OYO the Gables Hotel, Birmingham Airport

Its idyllic setting is one of Grace & Savour's many draws. Housed in a relatively new building within the Hampton Manor estate, it's a simply beautiful restaurant where the historic meets the contemporary and diners can look out onto the restored Victorian kitchen garden. Some dishes are eye-catching and elaborate in their make-up, while others are defined by their simplicity, and a modern Nordic touch means you can expect plenty of preserved elements complementing the outstanding British produce – like succulent Cornish lobster. Make it an occasion by booking a bedroom.
