The
Cotswolds
– Located in the “heart of England” the Cotswolds is an area
of pasture & farmland, ancient villages with narrow winding
lanes, honey-colored stone cottages, thatched roofs and
exquisite flower gardens. This first floor guestroom has a queen
sleigh bed and private bath with shower. Rose and lilac colors
create the ambiance of a secret garden. $150

The
Britannia Suite -
The Britannia Suite has a bedroom decorated in rich blues
with a
queen bronze sleigh bed and
private
bath with deep
soaking
tub and shower. This bedroom is decorated for
Stratford-upon-Avon, an
ancient town in the
midlands
famous for
its most colorful
character,
William Shakespeare.
Here the master was
born, lived and romanced while gaining inspiration for his
sonnets, poems and plays. The handsome Tudor-styled home of
Shakespeare’s birth and the thatched-roof cottage & gardens of
his wife, Anne Hathaway still stand today. A full collection of
Shakespeare's works and
other memorabilia from the bard and his home decorate this
beautiful first floor bedroom.
Connected
to the bedroom of the Britannia
Suite is a delightful sitting room with another full bath plus
cable television and a
comfortable futon.
The
inspiration for this room's decor comes from the medieval town
of Warwick. Warwick Castle still stands today and is one of the
finest examples of the quintessential English castle - complete
with ramparts,
drawbridge, dungeon and great feasting hall. This room is
decorated with tapestries, a knight's helmet and other
interesting items from the ancient days of heraldry.
$175/$200 if both the queen bed & futon bed are used. |
London

Bridge, Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, Hyde Park,
Piccadilly Circus, Petticoat Lane, speeding taxis, double-decker
buses and wonderful Harrods, where you can literally purchase
anything you can imagine…for a price, of course. Decorated in
shades of deep burgundy and gold and furnished with London
memorabilia, this room has a queen brass bed and private bath
with shower. Other amenities include cable television, a
separate entrance that can easily accommodate travelers with
pets, and a wonderful private deck overlooking the lush
fern-filled woods. $160 |
Dover
–
The city of Dover with its white cliffs and ancient castle have
long served as the front for England’s remarkable battles for
freedom. During the First World War Dover Harbor served as a
base for the Dover Patrol, a flotilla responsible for keeping
the straits open for shipping. The promise of bluebirds over the
White Cliffs of Dover provided a ray of hope to thousands of
battle weary soldiers during the Second World War. This room, in
shades of khaki and green, has a queen four poster iron bed, a
separate twin bed and a private bath with shower…and, of course,
a bluebird. $135/$160 if both beds are used. |

after the castle of the same name. Today any British royal who
is styled “Royal Highness” belongs to the House of Windsor. Our
largest guest accommodation, the Windsor Suite is truly fit for
royalty. This vaulted suite offers a lovely bay window with a
view to the ocean & gardens, beautiful antique furnishings and
an ornately carved queen cherry wood queen bed with velvety
linens. Special amenities include a gas fireplace, a down-filled
chaise lounge. wet bar, cable television, separate sitting room
with a daybed and lots of plush pillows, a large private bath
with an antique soaking tub and oversized shower. Even if for
just one night you will love experiencing the delectable
privilege of being royal. $195 /$220 if both the queen
bed and day bed are used. |
Brighton
- Brighton is a gala coastal city in the south of England with
sea breezes, sandy beaches and wind-weathered boardwalks. Its
popularity as a resort began when George IV, while Prince
Regent, acquired some property and later spent time in the city
with a very colorful entourage. He commissioned what is today
the Royal Pavilion. Completed in 1822 this Arabian & oriental
style palace is a symbol of the extravagant Bohemian spirit of
Brighton. This sunny room, with a peek at the ocean, captures
the colors of sunshine & seaside. The Brighton has a queen
cherry wood panel bed, a comfortable club chair and private bath
with shower. $150 |
Nottingham
- Nottingham, in the north of England, was home to
Nottingham Castle, a symbol of Norman wealth & power. This
castle became a favorite of English kings during the Middle Ages
because of Sherwood Forest, the royal game preserve and,
unfortunately for the king, a hideout for the gallant Robin
Hood. With a full bed and large private bath with deep Clawfoot
soaking tub and European shower, the décor captures the soothing
shades of a velvety forest. Sleep beneath the trees and the
stars in the Nottingham. $125
