Every single one of these hotels offers rooms with four poster beds. The four poster bed was originally designed to keep the draught off its slumbering inhabitants and the insects and dirt off their heads. Since medieval times are long past, we no longer have to worry about things falling on our heads as we tend to plaster our ceilings. All the same, the four poster bed has remained popular. Test out the bed-sheets at each of these fabulous UK & Ireland Hotels with Four Poster Beds and marvel at the many weird wonderful and downright comfortable four-poster beds within them.
