Inspector comments
"Creative cooking in a 16th-century Cotswold house."
Overview
The Close Hotel is a seriously handsome 16th-century house, with perfectly balancing period details and contemporary elegance. Fine dining is through the doors to the Garden Restaurant, which enjoys views over the charming garden. The modern British menu strikes the right balance in this setting, with creative combinations proving very tempting.

About the area
Gloucestershire is home to a variety of landscapes, including the Cotswolds, a region of gentle hills, valleys and gem-like villages that roll through the county. To their west is the Severn Plain, watered by Britain’s longest river and characterised by orchards and farms marked out by hedgerows that blaze with mayflower in the spring; beyond the Severn are the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley
