Hotels in Northamptonshire, United Kingdom
Northamptonshire sits in central England, with a temperate climate: summers average 70°F (21°C) and winters 35°F (2°C). It's famous for historic shoe-making and Althorp House, Princess Diana's childhood home-where you can walk the 90-acre Capability Brown-designed gardens in summer or explore the indoor Silverstone Circuit museum (home of the British Grand Prix) when it's cold. In spring, rent a kayak on the River Nene for watersports, and in fall, cycle through the Nene Valley's paths with fewer crowds.
