Welcome to the majestic 17th Century Cromwell Hotel, in the centre of the historic market town of Banbury, part of the old nursery rhyme "Ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross,".

There is a large enclosed ‘secret’ garden where food is also served and free parking at the rear of the hotel.

Welcome to the Ely, a traditional English country Hotel and Pub with beamed ceilings, cask-conditioned ales and friendly home from home atmosphere. Set in North East Hampshire and only a short distance from the M3 the Ely with its red brick walls covered in ivy, and pantiled roof sits on the edge of Yateley and Blackwater.

Originally a farmhouse dating back to 1672, the Fieldhead is situated on the edge of Charnwood Forest, just 7 miles from Leicester City centre and one mile from Junction 22 off the M1.

"Cowes", reported Mason's Guide to the Isle of Wight, 1876, "the principal station of the Royal Yacht Club... has an air of business as well as pleasure, not to be met within every watering place. There is a commodious landing place at the back of the Fountain Hotel. The Marine Parade... is a delightful and fashionable promenade, commanding a view of the entrance of the harbour, the Roadstead, the Solent, Calshot Castle, Southampton Water, and the opposite shore."

Overlooking Ryde Esplanade and Harbour with views across the Solent, this majestic building is claimed to have been commissioned by Henry VIII to defend the Spithead, Southampton Water and the Solent from the invasion by the Spanish Armada during his daughter’s reign. During World War I the building was used as a wartime hospital and during World War II it was an Army HQ.
