Parking at Weston Hall Hotel, Nr Coventry

Once the dower house of Weston-in-Arden, this elegant Manor House was built as the De Zouche family home in 1580. Now a 35 bedroom, three star hotel of character and quality with period-style décor, Weston Hall nestles in seven acres of peaceful grounds with fishing, golf and horse riding close by. The manor of Weston-in-Arden has been an independent commune since at least the time of Edward the Confessor, it is therefore likely that there has been a high status building on the site since at least that time. The original three, south facing gables were erected around 1580 by the Lords Zouch during the reign of Elizabeth I. This construction includes the hotels bar, lounge, library, Dubary and Arden Suites, as well as many of the second floor bedrooms. The oldest surviving example of furnishing is the fireplace in the Newdigate bar, of which the over mantle is late 16th Century. The remainder of the stone building was added in 1893, and includes reception, the restaurant, the lobby and several of the first and second floor bedrooms.
