Number Four at Stow - Hotel & Restaurant in Cheltenham GL54 1JX, open MayAugust.

Perched on the Fosse Way in the heart of the Cotswolds, Number Four at Stow commands views across rolling stone villages and countryside.

This intimate hotel and restaurant occupies a characterful building in Stow-on-the-Wold, offering on-site accommodation and dining in one of England's most picturesque market towns.

The venue's elevated position provides natural beauty as your backdrop, with the historic high street and surrounding hills creating an authentic Cotswold atmosphere.

Last minute decision to stay in Stow , and I have to say we were delighted with the hotel. Our room was lovely, the staff very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We had booked a table for dinner, and the food was excellent. I really have nothing bad to say. Other than you need to book - the restaurant was full. Breakfast was also lovely, with both hot and cold options. Free parking , close to Stow and a perfect base. I would not hesitate to go back
