Transformed from an old pub into the marvellous hotel it is today, Artist Residence London is packed full of quirky artwork.
Number 19, the Mandrake boasts 34 luxurious bedrooms including three opulent suites and a penthouse, each one-off designs that will take your breath away.

Once a dilapidated 19th Century country house, Hampton Manor, number 35 on the list, is now a Michelin starred, four AA rosette haven for foodies and wine-lovers with three restaurants, an artisan bakery and 24 bedrooms.
Each bedroom arranged around the higgledy-piggledy building is different to the next with individual designs while still respecting the manor’s heritage; grand on the outside with a relaxed atmosphere and generous hospitality encapsulated in the rich and characterful building.
Now to Bath Christmas market, held in the heart of the city between Thursday 24 November and Sunday 11 December.

Closing our round-up, Edinburgh offers multiple experiences between November and January for those wanting to enjoy winter festival activities in Scotland.
House of Gods, Edinburgh
The House of Gods, number 45 on the list, is the ultimate Edinburgh venue for guests looking to take in the historic city with style.
A self-proclaimed acute clash of styles, the House of Gods breaks all the rules when it comes to balancing opposites, very much believing “more is more” when it comes to design.
Based in Edinburgh’s Cowgate, the hotel stands proud as a place of unadulterated hospitality; from its rooms to its cocktail bars, the venue will amaze and astound from the moment you step through its doors.
