Rhinefield House Hotel

A Tudor-Gothic mansion surrounded by ornamental ponds and elegantly manicured gardens, the Rhinefield is the perfect choice for those seeking a classic country house experience.

Bedrooms can feel a touch corporate, but are super-comfy, with Hypnos mattresses and air-conditioning (rare in such a period property).

This is the kind of hotel where you can leave the car for your whole stay; there are miles of walks from the hotel door, an indoor pool and two upscale restaurants.

Don’t miss the chance to peek into the Alhambra room – an extraordinary, jewelled re-creation of the Alhambra palace – originally designed by the owner as a smoking room for her husband, now a private dining room.
