Latest openings: Baraset Barn hotel, the Chequers Inn, Grazing by Mark Greenaway and more

Baraset Barn hotel

 

Alongside the already established restaurant and bar of the same name, the Baraset Barn hotel has opened in Alveston, near Stratford-upon-Avon, to provide affordable luxury for a local crowd and tourists looking to soak up the area's culture.

 

The hotel is set in a large barn conversion and is themed around the building's original wood and stone features. It incorporates modern English-style interiors and fabrics orchestrated by owner Sue Salisbury and design partner Jess Earl.

 

Each room features floor-to-ceiling windows and king-sized beds, while in-room technology includes Smart TVs. All rooms surround a central courtyard garden with a fire pit and comfortable outdoor furniture.

 

The hotel accompanies the Baraset Barn restaurant, housed in a 200-year-old historic barn, which focuses on fresh produce from local orchards, fields and farms. The site features a raised terrace and courtyard garden for alfresco dining, a conservatory bar and two private dining rooms.

 

Rooms 16
Room rates From £100 per night
Typical dishes Moroccan-spiced lamb rump, cauliflower couscous, smoked aubergine hummus and pomegranate; and braised pork belly, black pudding bon bons, spinach, roast apple and calvados purée, and cider sauce
