Winner will enjoy two nights for two people in a double room at the 4-star boutique Kings Head Hotel in Cirencester. A 14th-century coaching inn, the hotel is now listed as a place of historical interest in the heart of the Cotswolds. To help you truly switch off, the hotel includes a subterranean luxury spa featuring a hot tub, sauna and steam room. Each morning you’ll be treated to breakfast in the on-site restaurant, which makes the most of locally sourced, premium ingredients. Included is a guided tour of The Royal Gardens at Highgrove – the private gardens of the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall. You’ll learn all about the lawns, which have been transformed into a series of interlinked organic gardens, with strict sustainability principles. After working up an appetite, you’ll enjoy a delicious champagne afternoon tea of sandwiches and sweet treats in The Orchard Restaurant, which may include produce sourced from the very gardens you’ve been exploring earlier that day. You’ll also get to try champagne, created exclusively for Highgrove by the French Champagne house Laurent-Perrier.

This prize is valid for booking and stay until 30th October 2021 and bookings are subject to availability. We advise booking at least 5 weeks in advance to guarantee the desired date and time. Return economy travel to the UK for the winner and their guest who are resident in the Republic of Ireland, Channel Islands or Isle of Man is included and any such travel is to be arranged with Specialist Publications UK Ltd. The prize does not include any transport to or from the airport, the hotel, transport to The Royal Gardens at Highgrove, food or beverage costs or other expenses outside of those stated.

The Highgrove Estate is The Prince of Wales’s private home, due to security regulations all visitors must bring a form of photographic ID (passport, driving license or bus pass) with them when visiting the Estate. The use of mobile phones, cameras, binoculars and all forms of recording equipment are prohibited on the Estate for security reasons, please leave such items at home, hotel or in your vehicle. The Royal Gardens at Highgrove are open to the public between April and October each year with the exclusion of certain pre-determined event days. Available dates are released at the end of February each year and can be provided by your concierge at the time of booking.

    Specsavers are struggling and it would not be a surprise if they have stopped running competitions as part of their extensive cost cutting measures which include 450 redundancies, staff pay and hours cut as well as "We sadly have had no option but to stop many of our major programmes, halt significant capital investment initiatives and carry out an exercise to streamline our organisational structure etc."


    (Probably not something the Hotel are that interested either as some of their facilitates remain shut)
