The William Cecil lies within the magnificent Burghley Estate, the centrepiece of which is Burghley House, one of the foremost Treasure Houses of the United Kingdom. Add this to the beauty of Stamford - which came top of a Sunday Times list of the best places to live in Britain - and The William Cecil must be one of the best located hotels in the country.

Food & Drink

We offer local, fresh, simple and seasonal food. Not complicated at all, but very tasty. Lots of choice, great service and fun atmosphere. There's a small but perfectly formed wine list with a nice range of speciality wines. No tail coats, starch or presumption - just very friendly.

Accomodation

We have twenty seven classic, chic and luxury rooms, which includes ‘our lodge’. Once you’ve booked your sleep, you can enjoy roll top baths, rain forest showers, crisp white Egyptian cotton sheets and thick over-sized towels. Each room is equipped with what you might expect, including unique tea trays, which a lot of our guests want to take home (but can’t)!
