A Grade II* Listed Georgian mansion built in 1827, The Churchill Hotel has previously served as a school, a private home and a government office. Dewsnaps is the main restaurant; a modern British brasserie. The Wellington bar is the hotel’s watering hole and there’s a new beer garden, with igloos for private dining during the winter season and a fairytale bothy space. Quirky and classic rooms have Duck Island toiletries — for the utmost luxury, book The Prince of Wales suite, once patronised by His Majesty King Edward VII. It has high ceilings, arched windows, a king size four-poster bed and a free-standing copper roll-top bath.
