Within this article, we explore the pretty country hotels that are perfect for a Spring break.
The Daffodil Hotel & Spa, Grasmere
Where better to embrace the perfect Spring break than The Daffodil in Grasmere. This idyllic waterside hotel in the Lake District features 9-acres of gardens that draw in guests all year round. It’s also close to Dora’s Field, where hundreds of daffodils honour the poet William Wordsworth’s daughter.
For the ultimate relaxation, once you have explored the grounds, head to the magnificent spa to unwind and recharge. Enjoy a range of treatments and facilities including a steam room, sauna, and thermal pool with hot tub jets.
With stunning surrounding scenery, elegant bedrooms, and an indulgent spa, The Daffodil provides the ideal Spring escape.
Mallory Court Hotel & Spa, Warwickshire
Set in 10-acres of tranquil gardens, Mallory Court is the epitome of a quintessential English countryside hotel. First built in 1916 in Edwin Lutyen’s style, Mallory Court features beautiful Arts and Crafts gardens. These wonderful gardens were designed by the building’s architect, Percy Morley Horder. They include a herbaceous walk, an ornamental kitchen garden and a water garden.
But the real showstopper is The Orchard – with its pretty blossoms and delightful daffodils. You could easily spend hours on sunny Spring days marvelling at the beauty that surrounds the hotel. This has been made easy thanks to the lovely garden pavilion where you can graze on a tasty afternoon tea in the sunshine.
With sumptuous bedrooms, an award-winning restaurant, and stunning spa facilities, Mallory Court is perfect for a spring break.
The Wood Norton, Worcestershire
Nothing says spring like a 55-mile blossom trail. The Wood Norton is known for its aristocratic French history and English Heritage Gardens. The luxury country hotel was once home to Duke of Orleans who claimed the throne of France. It was also bought by the BBC in World War II and became one of Europe’s largest broadcast centres.
Since then, The Wood Norton was transformed into a luxurious hotel. We recommend staying in one of the suites, decorated with floral headboards, wooden panelling, and large windows that overlook the beauty of the gardens. The Vale of Evesham’s Blossom Trail is simply unmissable during your spring getaway. Here, you’ll find a breathtaking stretch of cherry, apple, pear, plum, and blackthorn blossom to admire.
Devonshire Arms Hotel & Spa, North Yorkshire
Devonshire Arms Hotel & Spa is even more picture-perfect when spring has sprung. Surrounded by the lush greenery of the Yorkshire Dales, this country house hotel comes alive with its vibrant bluebells. The charming gardens and nearby walking trails are wonderful for days of springtime exploration, while the spa offers a peaceful retreat after a day of adventure.
With a cosy atmosphere, warm hospitality, and close proximity to outstanding natural beauty, the Devonshire Arms is an idyllic retreat for the whole family.
Luton Hoo Hotel , Bedfordshire
Featuring more than 1,000 acres of parkland and gardens, Luton Hoo is the place to be for a luxurious getaway. Walk in the footsteps of former famous visitors like Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth II, Winston Churchill, and Lord Mountbatten during your stay. Enjoy the magnificent spa, test your aim on the 18-hole golf course, and wander around the beautiful gardens whilst admiring the lakes that flow through the grounds.
We recommend a pre-booked tour of the garden that includes a visit to the tea house and dairy! This way, you won’t miss any of the beauty that Luton Hoo beholds – including the Walled Garden designed by Capability Brown!
Goldsborough Hall, Yorkshire
Another fabulous option if you’re looking to treat yourself. Much of the ornamental grounds were planted by royalty, like HRH Princess Mary, when she lived here in the 1920s! The cherry blossom trees and daffodils that bloom in the spring are bewitching. If you visit Goldsborough Hall in April, 50,000 lemon-coloured daffodils also line the quarter mile Lime Tree walk.
With AA 5 Gold Stars and 3 Rosette award-winning restaurants, Goldsborough is one of our finest countryside getaways for a spring holiday.
