Garden Restaurant, The

The Manor at Lower Slaughter, a magnificent country house with its roots deep in Cotswold history, offers a timeless atmosphere rich in tradition and with a hint of the theatrical that makes a visit there an occasion to remember.

Old Butchers, The

Formerly of the King's Arms, of the same parish, Peter and Louise Robinson have moved from the world of award-studded gastropubs to something rather different where the priorities and the mechanics of the place are geared to another pace, perhaps best illustrated by the designation of dining room, rather than restaurant.

• Address: Park Street, Stow-on-the-Wold, GL54 1AQ (Map)
• Cuisine(s): International, Modern British
• Avg. Cost Per Head Lunch: £33.00, Dinner: £38.00

Restaurant at The Fox Inn

Every so often you come across a restaurant, or as they would have said in the 1662 Prayer Book if they'd been talking about food instead of singing, "dining rooms and places where they eat", where you instinctively know as you walk through the door that they've got it right.

• Cuisine(s): British, Modern British
• Avg. Cost Per Head Lunch: N/A, Dinner: £36.00

Restaurant at The Kings Arms Hotel

The Kings Arm, a rather resplendent Gloucestershire pub with rooms, is one of those wonderful survivals, some 500 years old, mullioned windows, welcoming interior, particularly now that it has been given a good shake-up and decorated in a way which encourages thoughts of long lunches, lazy afternoons and general indulgence.

Restaurant at Washbourne Court Hotel

If there is one quality that English country hotels excel in, it must surely be tranquillity. Perhaps this is nowhere more evident than in the Cotswolds, that mellow-stoned tract of countryside that stretches across middle England, peppered with beautiful houses like Washbourne Court, close to the River Eyre and in the centre of the oddly-named Lower Slaughter.
