Number 9

The Cotswolds


Centrally located and wonderfully atmospheric, set in an 18th-century town house that was once a coaching inn, this friendly B&B is all sloping floors, low ceilings and exposed beams. Two of the three comfortable en-suite rooms, styled in white and pastels, are unusually spacious, and there's a homely lounge with a crackling fire downstairs.
