Description:
Tucked away behind a bank of mature trees, Hatton Court sits on the edge of the Cotswold escarpment between the Cathedral City of Gloucester and the glorious village of Painswick.BRBRHatton Court is a reassuring size not large and impersonal, nor too small. As a former splendid Cotswold home, the feeling is one of being eminently comfortable as opposed to grand.BRBRNothing is hurried. The reception is very much a lounge with armchairs, magazines and an open fireplace for those chillier days. Next door the bar is more a place to relax, take tea, read and talk than to rush.BRBRThe care taken to prepare the food, combined with a smiling service is complimented by the thought that has gone into creating the restaurant. Warm soft furnishings balance the picture windows that allow you to take in the broad horizons beneath the escarpment to the Malvern Hills and the Severn Estuary.BRBRThe peace and the surrounding Cotswold countryside and comfortable bedrooms, some with whirlpool baths, make for a goodnights sleep. Please note Hatton Court is a non-smoking hotel. Please contact the hotel prior to arrival for dinner reservations as tables cannot always be guaranteed.BRBRGuests are advised that between early January until end of March 2007 works will be being carried out within the lower grounds at the rear of the hotel. This will not affect the provision of services to the hotel itself but may result in occasional noise disruption between the hours of 0900 1700 Mon-Fri. Every effort will be made to keep this to a minimum.
