Special Places to Stay in Britain for Garden Lovers

Travel needn't be hurried and harried and far-flung: take a slow holiday or arrange a gathering nearby - and enjoy the huge diversity of British landscapes and architecture. We've tramped all over Britain to find truly special places to stay – or to gather for a wedding, party or meeting, from the grand or stylish to the cosy or quirky.
