If you're the kind of person who immediately checks out the food options after booking a holiday, who arranges entire weekend breaks around particular gastronomic experiences and who very possibly carries handbag cutlery, then friend – you are welcome here.

We've found eight of the UK's best restaurants with rooms, the kind of restaurants you go out of your way to visit and then need a lie down after that fabulous tasting menu and terribly indulgent matching wines.

Perfect for special occasions or treat weekends, with boutique hotels, huge manor houses and cosy cottages all mere steps away from Michelin-starred cuisine, you'll never book any other kind of break again. Happy eating...

Prices are start rates for one night's stay, with dinner where stated
