Accommodation In Southern England
We use the resources of the UK's leading hotel reservations service to bring you guest reviews, secure bookings and competitive rates for hotels throughout southern England.
As InfoBritain is a site for historical tourism we have created a special list of hotels with particular historic interest. Each hotel has been selected for its quality, and for the historic nature of its buildings, or for events that took place in or near the hotels. In the south of England you could stay in the hotel where Nelson spent his last night in England before joining HMS Victory at Portsmouth - Burford Bridge; or you could stay in the house of famous seventeenth century architect Sir Christopher Wren.
Here are some examples of the hotels you'll find in the Historic Hotel Listings:
Littlecote House is an impressive Tudor mansion. Henry the Eighth conducted his early romancing of Jane Seymour here. Later in history Charles the Second enjoyed the good life at Littlecote House, following the bleak years of Parliament's rule in the 1650s and 60s.
