Cowley Manor Experimenatal Gloucestershire

Nestled in the picturesque Cotswolds, Cowley Manor Experimental embodies a historic hotel set amidst a postcard-perfect landscape of rolling hills and serene lakes where swans glide gracefully among lily pads. This haven of serenity has long inspired artists and authors alike.

Explore this enchanting retreat where history meets modernity across 55 acres of idyllic grounds, now infused with the Experimental Group’s signature touch. Originally built in 1695 and once owned by English kings, Cowley Manor holds a rich heritage, making it one of the best hotels in Cotswolds. It includes a historic role as a refuge during World War II and as the muse behind Lewis Carroll’s Wonderland. Today, the Grade II listed property is home to 36 bedrooms, a spa, and a vibrant restaurant, seamlessly blending classical elegance with contemporary flair, curated by designer Dorothée Meilichzon.

After successfully establishing the cocktail bar culture and expending into hospitality in Paris, Experimental Group now offers a selection of curated addresses across Europe, providing the best hospitality experience to guests always in search of something new.
