“An English village estate where dinner comes from the farm you walked through that afternoon.”

Thyme is a boutique hotel set within Southrop Manor, a restored 17th-century estate on the quiet southern edge of the Cotswolds. Its 31 bedrooms are spread across stone farmhouses, cottages and barns, each one decorated differently, many with rolltop baths and botanical wallpapers. The estate runs on its own produce, and most of what reaches the table at the Ox Barn restaurant comes from the farm and kitchen garden next door, with The Swan, the village pub, as a more casual option. Days can include a class at the cookery school, a treatment at the Meadow Spa, a swim in the spring-fed pool in summer, or a long walk through fields of grazing sheep toward the Thames.

THE PIG – in the Cotswolds

Hotel

Europe, England

From $335

THE PIG – in the Cotswolds occupies Barnsley House, a Grade II-listed 17th-century manor of honey-coloured stone in the village of Barnsley, four miles from Cirencester. It was once the home of Rosemary Verey, and the Arts and Crafts gardens she laid out here, her first, still frame the house with a laburnum walk, a knot garden, potagers and a Tuscan temple. Twenty-four rooms are spread across the main house, the stable yard, the potting shed and a secret garden, ranging from small doubles to garden hideaways with freestanding tubs. The restaurant cooks from a 25-mile menu built around the kitchen garden, the hotel’s own Village Pub sits across the lane, and a small spa with a sauna and an outdoor hydrotherapy pool is tucked at the end of a garden path.

Hotel Miramalfi

Hotel

Europe, Italy

From $850

Hotel Miramalfi sits on the cliffs at the western edge of Amalfi, about ten minutes on foot from the cathedral and the harbor, on Italy’s Amalfi Coast. Built into the rock above the sea, it has sea-view rooms with tiled floors and terraces, a saltwater pool with a poolside bar and a private sea platform for swimming and snorkeling in the Mediterranean. Guests can unwind at the spa and wellness center, eat at the hotel’s restaurants with views of the coast, and leave the car with the free valet, a rare convenience in Amalfi. Breakfast is included, and small pets are welcome.

Tu Tu’ Tun Lodge

Hotel

North America, United States

From $290

Tu Tu’ Tun Lodge is an adults-only retreat on the north bank of the Rogue River, seven miles upriver from Gold Beach on the southern Oregon coast. A family-owned lodge since the 1970s, it is surrounded by dense forest a few miles from the Siskiyou National Forest, far from the busier stretches of the Pacific Northwest. Rooms, suites and riverside houses open onto the water, with stone fireplaces and wood interiors throughout. Days are spent kayaking, fishing, hiking or taking jet boat trips upriver, with an outdoor pool, a sauna and massages back at the lodge, and dinner is served family-style each evening.

Casa Polanco

North America, Mexico

Rooms feature walnut floors, custom furniture and, in many cases, balconies over the park or the inner courtyard.
