Two of Waddesdon’s much-loved venues have been recognised at the Beautiful South Tourism Awards 2025/2026, which celebrates the best tourism and hospitality businesses across South East England.
The Five Arrows, a Grade II listed boutique hotel located at the gates of Waddesdon Manor in Buckinghamshire, won Bronze in the Small Hotel of The Year Category, recognising its heritage-rich charm and 2 AA Rosette restaurant.
The Bow, Waddesdon’s newly revitalised village pub, brought home Silver for Best New Tourism Business of the Year. Since re-opening in October 2024, it has become a lively, welcoming destination offering a fresh take on the classic village pub experience.
The annual Beautiful South Awards celebrates achievements in the tourism and hospitality industry, with the judging carried out by an independent panel of past winners, industry leaders and experts in their field.
General Manager, Adam Parsons, said: “Winning these awards is a wonderful recognition of the hard work and passion our teams put in every day. Both The Five Arrows and The Bow are deeply rooted in the Waddesdon community, and we’re incredibly proud to see them celebrated on a regional stage.”
Both venues continue to play a central role in village life and are committed to exceptional quality and service, ensuring that every visit leaves a lasting impression.
