Salford Hall Hotel

Manor house on the border of Worcestershire and Warwickshire just of A46. Very good location for Cotswolds, Stratford-upon-Avon, Broadway etc. Salford Hall Hotel is a great place to stay. It's a Grade I listed building (Tudor) and presently undergoing a modernization - They are building a new swimming pool and refurbishing all the bathrooms. Restaurant is award winning with one AA rosette, so it sure is a good place to stop for a couple of days. Salford Hall Hotel is a part of Best Western group, so you can expect good quality there.
