The extravagant castle-esque structure that is Ellenborough Park will transport you into a world of luxury and comfort. This Cotswold manor house dates back to the 15th century gaining its name from the iconic Cotswold stone from which it’s created. The real beauty behind the hotel comes from Lady Ellenborough, Jane Digby, herself. For it was her unique style and personality that inspired the individuality of the hotel back in the 19th century. She was a dazzling character who took the English society by storm with her remarkable beauty and scandalous behavior. As a result, Ellenborough Park gained its reputation for country retreats, romantic breaks, a striking wedding venue, and perfectly conducted conferences.ellenborough park cheltneham spa drink me drinkmemag.com1

Now, the hotel has a five-star appeal to all who wish to stay including brilliant restaurants, a dual-level spa, and exemplary service by a friendly group of staff. The accommodations tastefully reflect the history and image of Ellenborough Park. Each room and suite is equipped with Hypnos beds, marble finished bathrooms with under floor heating, and the ever-fashionable fluffy gowns and slippers. Rooms are available in four separate quarters: Main House, The Mews, Ellenborough Gate, and Woodland Court (which has suites named after famous racehorses).
