Berwick Lodge Hotel

Berwick Drive, Bristol

Five years of renovations have finally paid off for husband and wife team Sarah and Fevzi Arikan at this Victorian manor. Head chef and partner Chris Wicks runs the restaurant, offering an elegant menu inspired by classical European cuisine; think truffle-butter poached turbot with trompette de la mort, leeks and Jerusalem artichokes; or quince tarte Tatin. There is also a degustation specially designed for vegetarians and a more relaxed brasserie menu, which can be ordered in as room service – why not tuck into a croque monsieur while snuggling down into a sleigh bed or roll-top bath in one of the 10 suites? Doubles from £90.
