Historic luxury hotel in the Cotswolds with dining by James Martin and a spa with retractable-roof pool
Dining
The hotel offers two restaurants created by celebrity chef James Martin: Grill by James Martin, set under a vaulted ceiling, and Tavern by James Martin on Broadway High Street. Both serve menus inspired by local, artisanal, and seasonal produce, alongside locally sourced drinks. Afternoon tea is served in the cozy Russell Room, with a selection of sandwiches, scones, and treats.
Spa & Wellness
The Lygon Spa features an indoor swimming pool with a retractable roof that opens during warmer months. Guests also have access to a hot tub, sauna, and steam room for relaxation. A range of spa treatments is available, including hot oil massages and facials performed by therapists like Kat and Grace.
Pet-Friendly Amenities
The hotel welcomes dogs with dedicated amenities, including pet baskets, pet bowls, and special dog beds in the rooms. Dog menus are available, and a dedicated dining room in the Russell Room accommodates guests with dogs during breakfast and dinner. An outdoor dog shower station helps clean muddy paws after walks in the adjacent gardens.

Shakespeare's country is 15 miles away, and Broadway Tower offers scenic views and history just a short distance from the hotel.
