"There isn't anything which has yet been imagined by man, by which such a lot of bliss is created as a decent bar or motel."

The other fundamental competitor is the Patio House, previously the Traditionalist Inn, in Stash on-the-Wold in the Cotswolds (presented previously).

The Shaven Crown at Shipton under Wychwood in the Cotswolds (above) dates from the 14th century.

Step inside and you will stunned by the beautiful medieval architecture!
