Suite Stay Club loves:
Set within the historic Burghley Estate, the William Cecil combines Elizabethan character with genuine comfort, all just a short walk from Stamford's town centre.
Each room is individually decorated with original period features and fine wooden furniture alongside modern conveniences.
Dining is equally considered, with a seasonal restaurant on site and easy access to its sister pub, The Bull & Swan, for those seeking a more relaxed evening.
The William Cecil sits at the very gates of the Burghley Estate, home to Burghley House – a magnificent Elizabethan Treasure House. It stands as a landmark in the historic and prosperous market town of Stamford.
Named after Lord William Cecil, chief advisor to Queen Elizabeth I and the visionary behind Burghley House, the hotel offers guests the rare chance to stay in the heart of history.
Each beautifully appointed bedroom pays tribute to a figure tied to Burghley's remarkable legacy. From Capability Brown, who sculpted the estate's rolling parkland, to Antonio Verrio, the Italian painter behind the opulent murals within the house.
Two bedrooms even take their name from Pride & Prejudice, a nod to the many film and television productions shot in and around the estate.
At the heart of the hotel lies Milly's, a charming neighbourhood bistro named in honour of Mildred Cecil. Here, seasonal dishes are cooked simply using the finest local ingredients, many sourced from the estate itself, including venison and garden produce.
Guests may also unwind in The Lounge, where coffee by day gives way to champagne by night, or relax on The Terrace with small plates and cocktails. The resident's lounge, complete with deep sofas, a record player and books, offers a peaceful retreat.
Handsomely beautiful and devoted to serious comfort, The William Cecil is ideally suited to those seeking a restful escape, a memorable celebration, or an elegant venue for business.
More than a night away, it offers the chance to wake up inside a story still being written.
