Amazing hotel for DHs 60th. Help??

[ApolloandDaphne]

DH has no idea what he wants to do for his 60th. He loves a great boutique hotel, fabulous food, lovely scenery and walks. We can go anywhere in the UK. We live in the east of Scotland and would like to go further afield. Not Edinburgh. He works there and it wouldn't be the right vibe for his special birthday. Not London either. We are going there in May for things he booked for my 60th. His birthday is October. Any ideas?

It looks utterly fabulous but it is a very long drive from where we are. Possibly worth it?

The turret room at Swinton Park or if money no object Pale Hall hotel in Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Went here for my 60th and it was fabulous. Not exactly boutique, more upmarket traditional.
Very, very nice. On the Bolton Abbey estate with brilliant walks on the doorstep.

Mingary Castle on the Ardnamurchan peninsula is on my wish list.

This amazing hotel in the Lake District- absolutely wonderful.

Fife Arms, Braemar.

Yeah that might be a goer. However it is very close to where we used to live.

Congham Hall in Norfolk is lovely

The torridon
It's fabulous but understated

So many great options. I will need to make a list!

Scarborough, Filey, Robin Hood's Bay, Cayton. It's all just beautiful, peaceful and everyone is lovely. Loads of long walks coastal and foresty 🌳 I wish I could live here but no job opportunities for me personally x

Le Manoir? It's not close to where you live and has amazing food and grounds. Most of the produce is grown there too.

Walwick Hall. Cosy,lovely food, super garden.

Lucknam Park Hotel in Wiltshire?

Another one for Chateau Rhianfa - I’m from the village it’s next to, it’s a stunning place.

or if it’s all about luxury treat-food and drink, Maison au quattre saison in Oxfordshire is very lovely too.

photo is Rhianfa.

I just read about it the other day and would agree - it looks amazing!

There’s also the Isle of Eriska near Oban, know a few people who have gone there for significant birthdays or anniversaries.

We've booked Burgh Island for a 60th birthday in July next year. Looks fabulous

DH has now conceded that somewhere lovely that we can also invite our DDs to would be great. They are in London/Leeds. Lakes or Yorkshire might be the best options.

Actually yes, Le manoir aux quatre saisons is also fantastic - food is the best I've ever had

I second the Lake District, loads of choice. The Cranleigh Hotel is lovely, few years since I've been but they've got some amazing individual rooms.

I mean Manior not Maison. Both my memory and my French are appalling !!

Linden Hall at Longhorsley near Morpeth ?

RNLI hotel

Stayed here last week. Lovely hotel and slightly as set at RNLI hq. Rooms look over water, plus there’s lots of lifeboats everywhere. Located in Poole.

Another vote for Devonshire Arms, more old school than flashy but very enjoyable and in Yorkshire.

DH does love to play golf!
