The Killingworth Castle has just been named the No.1 UK Holiday by The Sunday Times and it’s safe to say we’re still taking it in.

The feature, written by James Stewart, shines a light on what makes The Killingworth Castle so special. Not just as a place to eat, but as somewhere to truly escape to - a destination in its own right.

And perhaps it’s summed up best in his words:
"Its modern British grub has won plaudits from the people of Michelin and the Good Food Guide; a local friend of mine swears by its Sunday roast."

A Spring Worth Escaping For

If there’s ever a time to experience it, it’s now.

Spring in the Cotswolds is something special - blossom scattered through honey-stone villages, fresh green countryside rolling out in every direction, and menus that celebrate the very best of the season.

To mark the moment, our Spring Dine & Stay is now running until the end of May. It’s a relaxed overnight escape centred around a beautifully crafted tasting menu, a cosy room to retreat to, and a slow, delicious breakfast the next morning. Stay one night and enjoy 25% off, or linger a little longer with 40% off when you stay two nights.

And for those who love a slow Sunday, our Sunday Room & Roast is now available too - the perfect excuse to settle in for a comforting roast, a cosy overnight stay, and breakfast the next morning.

Come and See What All the Fuss Is About

There’s never been a better time to join us. No fuss. No formality. Just really good food, a beautiful setting, and now… apparently the best holiday in the UK.

Come and experience it for yourself.
