Albrighton Hall Hotel and Spa  Albrighton Hall Hotel and Spa is located in Shrewsbury in Shropshire, we visited as part of a spa day /  night away deal including dinner and breakfast. My wife and I found it to be a lovely relaxing and peaceful stay, with good food ( great breakfast ) and excellent cocktails. (the staff had created their own, the Lady Like is a must try)  The tranquil setting, made for a very nice environment, too switch off and enjoy the short break.  Albrighton is a mix of period style furnishings and modern decor depending on which area you are in, we found it very comfy, warm and inviting.  Prices were very reasonable for food and drink.

  Crow How Country Guest House  Ambleside Lake Windermere Our trip included a 2 night stay at Crow How, the location was ideal for us as it was very quiet, scenic and only a 10 minute walk or 3-5 minute car journey to Ambleside town centre.  Everything appeared to be well kept and it was nicely furnished. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and made for a good nights sleep, that combined with the very quiet surroundings.  Breakfast offered a nice variety with cereals, fruit, yogurt, Granola and a number of hot options, we had the full English which was very good.   All the staff were polite, friendly and efficient.
