The Vicarage, Cheshire

• Modernity meets tradition: The Vicarage is a characterful 17th-century, Grade II listed building in Cheshire. An eclectic design theme reveals itself on arrival, most obvious in the entrance lounge, bar and signature restaurant. Expect beamed ceilings, stone floors, and a charming mishmash of art and curios at this TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence awardee.

• Wine and dine: Delight in gourmet-style fare at the hotel's signature restaurant, which sources everything locally from gardeners, farmers and suppliers. Favourites include Welsh lamb rump and seared cod fillet, which you could pair with craft beers and ciders from the area, or if you feel particularly indulgent, treat yourself to a decadent afternoon tea with a glass of fizz or a perfectly brewed cuppa.

• Home from home: Expect quirky, country-style boutique decor throughout the guest rooms, with eclectic furnishings that mix classic and contemporary elements, all blending seamlessly with the rural surroundings: nestled a five-minute stroll from the picturesque village of Holmes Chapel, this property offers you a relaxing retreat among verdant hills and quintessentially British countryside.
