Special Places to Stay British Hotels and Inns

A wonderful miscellany of places, from windmills to boats and manor houses and from apartments to boutique hotels. A smugglers' inn, a cliff-top castle, a 16th century priory, a 1735 mansion on the river Wye and a Palladian masterpiece where James Bond played Goldfinger at golf - everything from the thoroughly traditional to the state-of-the-art boutique is here. The guide also celebrates places that make special efforts to reduce their impact on the environment with double page spreads for the ones that have particularly good 'green' credentials.
