Hotel recommendations in the midlands

[TheChineseChicken]

Looking for recommendations for hotels for a one night stay in September within 60-90 minutes' drive of Market Harborough. Could be in a nice town or could be self contained with eg a spa and good restaurants. For a birthday treat for DH. Up to £200 per night. Thanks

There's some nice ones near Rutland water at different price points. Kilworth house is amazing for food but I've never stayed there

I know Kilworth house but it doesn't have availability the night we are looking for unfortunately

Fawsley hall is worth a look

Sadly that's about twice my budget!

Barnsdale Hall at Rutland Water - the restaurant is quite (not very, but perfectly acceptable) good and it has its own spa, pool and golf course. The mini golf course is brilliant, plus a gym and tennis courts. It’s in between Oakham and Stamford so lots of restaurants to choose from, but do book in advance. Avoid the bird watching festival / Burghley Horse Trials as the hotels get fully booked then.

And be careful that you don’t book Hambleton Hall by mistake 💴 💰 £££

Thanks @Rhubarbisevil I'll take a look. Hambleton Hall is most definitely out of my reach!

The George in Stamford is lovely, well worth a stay and Stamford is a great town to wander around
