“There's a distinctive appeal to a canalside hotel that's been family-run for decades, especially one defined by its thatched-roof architecture. The on-site bowling green and cricket ground offer a charming touch, while the varied dining-including authentic Italian-suits different tastes. It strikes me as a relaxing base, a bit removed from standard hotel experiences but near enough to attractions like the Lake District.”
