May 2025
We’re delighted to share some exciting news from the world of boutique hospitality: The Pig Hotels—the beloved collection of countryside-chic retreats—have officially joined the prestigious Best Loved Hotels family. With their signature blend of laid-back luxury, home-grown produce, and charming British heritage, eight iconic Pig properties are now part of this handpicked collection of exceptional stays across the UK.
Let’s take a closer look at these eight remarkable hotels that are now proud members of Best Loved Hotels:
The Pig
New Forest, United Kingdom
The original that started it all. Nestled in the heart of the New Forest, this walled garden retreat set the tone for The Pig brand with its kitchen-garden ethos, shabby-chic interiors, and strong connection to the land. A true trailblazer in sustainable, relaxed luxury.
The Pig at Combe
Devon, United Kingdom
Just 15 minutes from the Jurassic Coast, this Elizabethan gem is hidden in the rolling Devonshire countryside. With three walled kitchen gardens, an outdoor wood-fired oven, and a rustic folly for private dining, this is countryside escapism at its finest.
The Pig at Harlyn Bay
Cornwall, United Kingdom
Set above one of Cornwall’s most stunning beaches, The Pig at Harlyn Bay blends coastal charm with historic grandeur. Expect clifftop views, surf culture, and seafood that’s often landed just a few miles away.
The Pig in the South Downs
West Sussex, United Kingdom
A newcomer to the fold and already a firm favourite. Tucked into the rolling hills of the South Downs National Park, this hotel combines traditional flint and brick with The Pig’s signature rustic flair. Ideal for wine lovers thanks to its position in English wine country.
The Pig near Bath
Somerset, United Kingdom
Close to the honey-coloured Georgian city of Bath, this handsome Georgian house is surrounded by deer-dotted parkland and a working kitchen garden. Perfect for combining countryside tranquillity with a city break.
The Pig at Bridge Place
Kent, United Kingdom
A quirky and characterful manor with rock and roll roots, this Kentish hideaway features secret staircases, velvet sofas, and a party-loving past. It’s an ideal launchpad for exploring the Garden of England.
The Pig in the Cotswolds
Barnsley, United Kingdom
The newest arrival to The Pig family, located near the charming town of Barnsley. Set in a classic Cotswolds stone country house, this highly anticipated opening is already drawing attention for its promise of rustic luxury and garden-to-plate excellence.
The Pig on the Beach
Dorset, United Kingdom
Perched above Studland Bay with sweeping sea views, this fairy-tale house by the sea offers a blend of Dorset charm, Victorian whimsy, and direct access to coastal walks and fossil-rich shores.
