The Hoxton, Edinburgh
Barely two months after The Hoxton, Florence’s launch, Ennismore strikes
again – this time, with a 214-room hotel in the Scottish capital, spread
across 11 knocked-together Georgian townhouses. The brand’s signature
open-house concept is in full swing, drawing in locals and guests alike
with an all-day lobby lounge and laid-back Italian restaurant, Patatino.
Close to Princes Street, in the heart of Haymarket, it offers Old Town
roots, new-school rhythm. Doubles from £150 per night. thehoxton.com
Calverley Old Hall,
West Yorkshire
It’s not every day you get to cook
in a great hall beneath an original
hammerbeam roof, flanked by
vast stone fireplaces once used
for turning spits. But that’s
exactly what’s on offer at the
12th-century Calverley Old Hall,
just outside Leeds. Drama-loving
cooks can take centre stage
under the minstrel’s gallery, while
history buffs will swoon over the
Tudor painted chamber uncovered
during the £5 million renovation.
The Landmark Trust’s latest
release makes a great base for
parties of up to ten, with plenty
nearby to explore – not least
Bavette, a bistro that nods to
Calverley’s Anglo-French past.
From £45pp per night (3 nights
minimum). landmarktrust.org.uk
