Self-guided Short Breaks - Hidden Gems
Hidden Gems short breaks are appropriately named as they are based in some of those lesser-known areas which are often passed by in the rush to reach the more established tourist destinations. Rewarding experiences for those guests prepared to venture off the beaten track.
Our Hidden Gems short breaks are based in tiny villages and hamlets where life is lived at a more leisurely pace and priorities are dictated by the changing seasons. In these small settlements, tucked away in quiet valleys or nestling in the folds of the hills the inn is the hub of its community.
Hide away in one of three tranquil areas for three nights of relaxation in a quality rustic inn. Follow our carefully researched walking routes to discover little-known rural landscapes before settling down for an evening of delicious food and local company.
