Sunday Times Where Was I? competition
(www.thetimes.co.uk/travel/destinations/competition/where-was-i-ftrnmb55n)
The prize:
The winner and guest will stay for two nights, B&B, in a suite at the Feathers – a boutique hotel in the Oxfordshire town of Woodstock, a stroll from Blenheim Palace. The hotel reopened in October after a £4 million makeover and is dapper – slightly art deco, with its mix of soft colours, eye-catching patterns and sculpted sofa in the lounge.
Cocktails are served in the Aviary bar, while its woodpanelled Nest restaurant showcases British ingredients such as local lamb, Orkney scallops, Wye Valley asparagus and Evesham strawberries. Upstairs, 23 rooms await, with creamy colour schemes and bespoke Cotswolds furnishings.
The prize includes one dinner for two (excluding drinks) and two tickets to Blenheim Palace and Gardens. It must be taken before December 20, 2025, subject to availability and excluding bank holidays.
