Stunning 5-Bed Cabin in Ashton Under Hill

In a chocolate-box Cotswolds village, a former doctor’s surgery has been converted into the House of George W. Davies hotel, named after its fashion designer owner – the man who founded Next and George at ASDA. It’s no surprise, then, that the hotel’s restaurant has a certain style, with a modern country house vibe and a distinct Nordic feel to the clean, contemporary design. The cooking offers well-balanced dishes which may look simple but come with hidden depths, as with chicken breast enhanced by a buttery jus.

In a typically charming Cotswolds market town, this long-standing neighbourhood restaurant occupies a pretty little period building that packs plenty of character into a small space. Run with a smile by a husband-and-wife team, it's a welcoming place that provides plenty of comfort with its generous cooking. British ingredients, from Salcombe crab to Cornish monkfish, underpin the well-executed dishes featuring classic combinations, such as Orkney scallop with pork belly. The concise wine list offers a nicely balanced selection.
