Jetting off to exotic destinations may be off the table for a while longer, but that doesn’t mean that we need to put off holidays all together – after all, we do need a bit of a break. We’ve scoured the country to bring you some of the most beautiful staycations right on your doorstep – with a bit of style inspiration to match.

Norfolk – Mount Amelia

Mount Amelia is a Grade 2 Norfolk Country House with large, finely decorated rooms set within spacious parkland and boasting unrivalled views across The Wash. With plenty of space to relax and unwind, you will also find yourself perfectly placed to enjoy all that North Norfolk has to offer – a particular highlight is the Anish Kapoor exhibition currently on show at nearby Houghton Hall (2.5 hours from London).

Somerset – The Newt

The Newt is a Georgian country estate nestled into the beautiful Somerset woodlands, where you can truly relax and get away from it all. With rooms that have been designed by former Elle editor Karen Roos, the hotel offers a simple countryside elegance – where comfort and design are perfectly balanced. The estate boasts a spa, two restaurants, a farm shop, a house & garden shop and a new gelateria, so there’s really no need to step off the grounds. Visit the glass-walled Garden Café which offers a menu of home-grown vegetables, barbecued pork and beef, charcuterie and cheeses, or head to the Botanical Rooms, where you’ll find brill with brown crab sauce, fennel salad, or a chocolate and beetroot mousse. Yum!

What to wear

This Rixo paisley dress fits well with the effortlessly chic vibe of the hotel, while a Jimmy Choo bucket bag and Vinnie Day gold leaf earrings will elevate the look when you head down to dinner.
