The Howard Arms - Inn in Warwickshire
Lower Green, Ilmington, CV36 4LT, Warwickshire
England,
Regno Unito
A lovely country inn, packed with original fixtures and fittings: polished flagstones, heavy beams, mellow stone walls, a crackling fire. Outside, roses ramble on golden stone walls, while a pretty garden waits at the back. Good food comes as standard – head chef Adam Pieprzak creates surprises alongside British favourites, bread is homemade, ingredients are sourced locally and include game in season, Sunday roasts are superb.
Find oils on walls, books on shelves, settles in alcoves, beautiful bay windows. A colourful dining room floods with light courtesy of fine arched windows that overlook the green. Bedrooms in the main house have a charming old-world feel; garden rooms are more contemporary with excellent bathrooms. You can walk across fields to Chipping Campden with its terraced high street and honey-stone buildings.
Walks in the west Cotswolds are stunning and you're just eight miles from Stratford-upon-Avon.

Punti d'interesse locali da
Pawel Sobiszek:
- One of Britain’s popular visitor attractions, Warwick Castle dates back to the 14th century, with the gardens designed by Capability Brown in the 18th century.
- There are now more than a thousand varieties of trees on display at Batsford, near Moreton-in- Marsh, making it’s something of a must see attraction for many tourists, especially in spring and autumn when the colours are particularly vivid.
- This Grade I-listed residence which dates back 300 years, and was later remodelled with the interiors designed by Robert Adam, is a popular venue for international art exhibitions.
- One of the country’s greatest gardens, full of rare shrubs and trees, herbaceous borders and unusual plants from all over the world. In addition, from Hidcote, there are superb views across the Vale of Evesham.
- Well worth a visit if you enjoy exploring magnificent country houses with plenty of fascinating history. Coughton Court, a Tudor country house near Alcester, has it in abundance.
- Powered by two undershot waterwheels, this 18th-century watermill grinds wheat and maize for commercial use.
