Central England
Discover some of the finest hotels in central England
This often-overlooked region is home to West End-worthy theatre, Michelin-starred dining, and some of the country's most handsome country house hotels.
From Rutland, the smallest British county, to the glorious open spaces of the Peak District, this region offers a little bit of everything. Stately homes and castles, thriving market towns, vibrant cities, and miles of picture-worthy countryside - central England is what we call the gateway to history, heritage and nature.
