4- and 5-star hotels in Oswestry
A shortlist of the 4- and 5-star hotels in Oswestry, from town-centre spa hotels to converted barns and farm cottages in the surrounding Shropshire countryside. It suits couples, families and anyone wanting a rural base near the Welsh border.
Staying in Oswestry
Oswestry is a market town in Shropshire, close to the Welsh border, and this shortlist gathers its 4- and 5-star places to stay: converted barns and farm cottages on the one hand, and spa hotels with restaurants, bars and pools on the other. The addresses spread well beyond the town itself, from Church St, Willow Street and Castle Street in the centre out to Moelfre, Nantmawr, Llansilin, Llanwddyn and Lake Vyrnwy.
Couples tend to head for the spa hotels, which offer saunas, steam rooms and restaurants alongside their rooms. Families are better served by the cottages and barns, where kitchens, cots, high chairs, gardens and family rooms make longer stays practical, and several of them welcome pets. Business travellers are best placed in the centre, at Church St, which has a business centre, while a short break of one or two nights works well anywhere on the list given how far some of the rural addresses sit from town.
