About
History is never far away in Stratford-upon-Avon. But after time spent walking in the footsteps of the Bard, head to a place that has just as much historical wow-factor as Shakespeare’s Birthplace itself. More than a hotel, the Welcombe Hotel is a spa and golf resort that’s an architectural landmark in its own right - and it’s just a gentle 20-minute walk from the centre of the Warwickshire town.
If you’re planning an occasion when only the best will do, the Welcombe Hotel will be the venue of your dreams. Sweep up the winding, tree-lined drive to the fairytale mansion. With all the romantic appearance of a grand Jacobean palace, it’s set in 157 acres of stunning grounds with formal Italianate gardens, a lake and a waterfall. But what makes it even more special is that it’s an exceptionally rare 18th century example of a calendar house, with seven entrances (days of the week), 12 fireplaces (months of the year), 52 chimneys (weeks) and 365 windows (days of the year).
Stop counting for a moment and step inside. Grand on the outside, inside it’s a masterpiece of luxury, from the sweeping staircases and twinkling chandeliers to antique oil paintings and huge marble fireplaces. Luckily, leisure facilities are every bit as abundant as the period features, thanks to an immaculate 18-hole golf course, tennis courts and a well-equipped gym.
Enjoy memorable fine dining at The Trevelyan restaurant, or settle in for the night sampling the local gin at The Trevelyan bar. But the star of the show has to be the opulent, Roman-themed spa. You’ll be tempted to spend all your time here, unwinding with a Temple Spa or Elemis ritual or revelling in the warmth of the 15-metre swimming pool, Swedish sauna, steam room and outdoor vitality pool.
If you do decide to leave the comfort of your fluffy robe, adventure awaits. Explore the grounds, or take a longer walk through the Welcombe Hills and Clopton Park Local Nature Reserve to reach Stratford-Upon-Avon on foot. Here you can enjoy a boat trip along the River Avon, see a play at the world-famous Royal Shakespeare Theatre, visit Warwick Castle or head to Stratford Butterfly Farm. Or just simply spend time foraging the antique shops, boutiques and local markets for treasures to take home.
But when you’re tired of shopping and seeing the sights, the Welcombe hotel will be there to welcome you. With 85 opulent bedrooms, including self-catering apartments and suites with four-poster beds, this magical mansion makes the perfect venue for any occasion - whether it’s a spa weekend with the girls, a golfing trip with old friends or an intimate getaway for just the two of you.
