THIS COMPETITION HAS NOW CLOSED

We're giving one lucky AOL Travel reader the chance to win a two-night rural escape for two at Mercure Burton Upon Trent, Newton Park Hotel. This grade-II listed, 18th-century country hotel is the former home of Staffordshire brewer William Worthington and is surrounded by eight acres of private grounds.

You'll unwind at the Italianate-style manor, which boasts exquisite décor and period features including listed wallpaper, stained glass and original oak panelling. Enjoy a potter in the kitchen garden where fresh herbs and spices grow in abundance before finding their way to your plate in The Folly Restaurant.

The prize includes dinner for two in the elegantly styled eatery, with views out across the surrounding countryside. Choose from a diverse collection of mouth-watering dishes, prepared using fresh ingredients and locally sourced produce.



The winner and their guest will enjoy a night of luxury and comfort in one of the hotel's classic rooms. Here you'll find a flat screen TV, en-suite bathroom and complimentary high speed WiFi. From the hotel's picture windows, you can enjoy views out over the landscaped gardens.

During your stay, why not visit nearby Derby with its historic Cathedral Quarter and fine ale houses, or opt for a thrill-seeking day out at Alton Towers theme park? Other excellent attractions nearby include the National Memorial Arboretum, Chatsworth House, the National Brewery Museum and the Peak District.
