The Vineyard Hotel Hotel

Berkshire

Already a mecca for master oenophiles who flock to the sprawling five-star Vineyard for its neon-lit, 30,000-bottle wine cellar, novice noses should also make the pilgrimage. Put your taste buds on trial with the excellent Judgement tasting menu, which plays on the 1976 Judgement of Paris, when American New World wines were chosen over Old World French in a blind tasting, sparking a vinous revolution. The 49 rooms are warmly decorated, while spa treatments include a grape body scrub that leaves us preened, polished and ready to do it all over again. Doubles from £175.
