Pride of Britain Hotels welcomes two new members
New this month to Pride of Britain Hotels, the consortium of 44 privately-owned independent British hotels and spas, are two very unique hotels – The Grove, Narberth, set in glorious Pembrokeshire countryside and Lewtrenchard Manor, which is located in a secluded Devonshire valley.
Both hotels were unanimously voted in as members of the exclusive consortium and provide the exceptional hospitality and high standards that Pride of Britain Hotels are known for. Brief details, with lead-in prices, are as follows:
The Grove, Narberth, Pembrokeshire – one night from £75 pp
Overlooking the Preseli Mountains, The Grove, in Narberth, has been painstakingly restored by the current owners, making it one of the finest hotels in Wales. Much attention has been given to the 20 guestrooms and four cottages, all with deep mattresses, quality bed linen, cast iron baths, REN bath products, underfloor heating and beautiful local artwork adding to the luxurious feel. The hotel is surrounded by 26 acres of manicured gardens and meadows and a magnificent 17th century kitchen garden is stocked with over 70 varieties of fruit, vegetables and herbs. Head Chef Duncan Barham specialises in locally-sourced cuisine with a French twist, serving up dishes such as Brecon Red Deer and Welsh Beef, complemented by an award-winning wine list, in the restaurant. The hotel can arrange in-room aromatherapy massages and Pembrokeshire’s coastline and countryside is just waiting to be explored. A one-night stay costs from £150 per room/£75 pp (two sharing) with a full Welsh breakfast included.
Lewtrenchard Manor – one night from £77.50 pp
Midway between Devon’s North and South coasts, family-run Lewtrenchard Manor is an idyllic and luxurious Jacobean manor house set deep in the Devonshire countryside. With stunning grounds which date back to the 16th century and boasting a mention of a dwelling on the land in the Domesday Book, this atmospheric gem features beautiful stained glass windows, roaring log fires and exquisite bedrooms. Head Chef John Hooker serves up delicious west-country dishes in the popular restaurant using the finest meat, seafood, local cheeses and fresh produce from the hotel’s walled vegetable garden. Local attractions include the Tarka Trail cycle route, Dartmoor and the National Trust-owned Buckland Abbey, which was home to monks in the 14th century. A one-night stay costs from £155 per room/£77.50 pp (two sharing) with a full English breakfast or £245 per room/£122.50 pp (two sharing) on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis.
As the official hotel partner to the National Trust, many of Pride of Britain’s hotels are located near to one or more National Trust properties. Pride of Britain Hotels provide a constantly-updated list of late bookings availability and special offers on its website.
