When summer rolls around, we all start dreaming about where to escape to; maybe it’s sandy beaches with the kids, a peaceful countryside retreat, or a romantic weekend just for two. Luckily, Bespoke Hotels has something for everyone, whether you’re planning a family adventure, a couple’s getaway, or a trip with friends.
Here’s a roundup of some of the best summer hotel breaks across the UK, so you can make the most of the sunny season, whatever your style.
Family-Friendly Summer Breaks
Seeking a break that keeps the kids entertained and gives the adults a well-deserved rest?
- Countryside Adventures in the Lake District or Scottish Highlands
Wide open spaces, easy trails, and plenty of outdoor fun. Stay in one of Bespoke’s country hotels with spacious family rooms, gardens to roam, and hearty breakfasts to fuel busy days. - Seaside Escapes in Jersey, Newquay or Eastbourne
Nothing beats sandcastles, rock pooling, and ice cream on the beach. Coastal hotels put you right by the action – plus, many have family rooms or suites perfect for a summer by the sea. - Self-Drive Family Road Trips
For families who love exploring, use a Bespoke hotel as a base for day trips to theme parks, nature reserves, or historic sites. Hotels across Wales, Devon and Yorkshire make it easy to hop in the car and go.
Romantic Getaways for Couples
Need some time away, just the two of you?
- Relax at Cotswold House Hotel & Spa
Treat yourselves to a spa break, with an overnight stay, afternoon cream tea, a spa treatment each, and time to just slow down together. - Stay Somewhere with History and Charm
Think castles and grand country houses – like Cally Palace or the newly opened Bailifgate Hotel in Alnwick, where you can wander the grounds, enjoy a candlelit dinner, and reconnect away from daily life.
Breaks for Friends & Groups
Travelling with friends or bringing the grandparents along?
- Interconnecting Rooms Perfect For Sharing
- The Green Dragon Hotel in Hereford offers a mix of twin, family, and interconnecting rooms, making it ideal for larger groups.

For a low-key escape, head to a country inn like The George Hotel in Northumberland or the Talbot Inn in Surrey. Walks, local pubs, and a slower pace make these ideal for adult-only breaks.
Boutique City Breaks

- Check into Sun Street Hotel in London
Explore Shoreditch, enjoy rooftop drinks, and wander the city in the sun, perfect for couples or friends looking for something stylish and urban.
