Manor House Inn

We were made to feel so welcome, special thanks to Emily and Reen. Our room was so comfortable and spotlessly clean, fantastic shower and such a comfy bed. The pub had a brilliant atmosphere and a great selection of drinks. The menu was extensive and hard to chose from! The food was outstanding, as were the breakfasts. We had a brilliant time here and can't wait to return. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

Excellent lunch in the totally refurbished 'Manor. Really good flavours. My pork ribeye with ratte potatoes and punterella was well proportioned and well balanced. Slight niggle- it could have been warmer. My wife's vegetarian dish - roasted squash, goat's cheese and pangrettato was equally as good (could have been warmer. The hospitality is very well handled and we will be back. I'll leave the world to discuss discretionary 12.5% service charges??? Prices reflect the quality of food.

Don’t change this place! A pub with charachter, so unusual these days with the majority part of chains or turned in to boutique gastro pubs. Our second stay here, rooms 6,7 are outstanding value for money. Food is very good, service is outstanding, the village beautiful but it just has soul which you can’t put a price on. No hesitation recommending and we will be back

We received a warm welcome from the staff and local customers. All of the staff take a pride in their role and the service was always excellent. A special thank you to Lorraine for looking after us. Good choice of ales and ciders and we also enjoyed the tasty menu offered in the restaurant.

(This review is being written in August 2023 before a planned change of ownership.) We booked here as somewhere to stay while we attended a large Christian gathering at the nearby showground. I work with children aged 8-11 twice a day and need somewhere quiet to rest during the day. I also have a medical condition that meant camping or caravaning would be challenging. This Inn met all our requirements, quiet, nicely fitted and close to the site. The Manor House Inn exceeded our requirements. It certainly is quiet, off any main road, and with owners that appreciate guests don't want lots of noise and "stuff" going on. The drive to the event site is easy and close enough to allow me to come back and rest during the day. They also cleaned the room, when requested, at times that did not conflict with this rest time. Breakfast was also very good with a wide choice of main options and not simply a full English or just elements of that. We tried a number of the options, all of which were much enjoyed. The bar is well stocked and includes alcohol-free options as well as the nectar of the gods (still ciders). The rooms are comfortable, and while a little tired in places, nothing detracted from our stay. The shower in our room was a walk-in with a wide, gentle "rain" type head. I can't use higher pressure types as they can cause me pain. It was so lovely to return and enter our private, warm rain shower. The staff were excellent, and a special call out to Kayleigh, with whom we had the most interactions. She was always friendly and courteous and answered all our questions. We have booked in for the same days next year and hope the new owners don't change too many things. Especially look after the staff you have. I have no hesitation in recommending the Manor House Inn for bed and breakfast and the bar. We did not try other meals as they were provided for us at the festival, but the menu looked good. That said, it is not the sort of place to come if you want lots going on. It is a quiet inn in a quiet village.

We made the booking for our two night stay 6 months prior as we were attending a wedding in the area, making it very clear that we required a twin bedded room and that my wife used a wheelchair. We had an immediate response stating that wasn't a problem and we would be put in a room with a double bed and a single bed. Also they offered use of a shower stool which we accepted. I would also add that two days prior to arrival we were asked to complete an online check in form which we did. Yet again mentioning our requirements. Upon arrival we were allocated a room with just a double bed and not enough room to manoeuvre the wheelchair. We were offered the an alternative room but this had steps to access, however it was larger and had two beds with room to manoeuvre the wheelchair. We settled on that one despite my wife who has very limited mobility having to negotiate the steps. Settling in to the room (Room 1) we noticed that it was extremely damp - and had a dehumidifier in the corner. No shower stool either - just a metal garden chair. Sadly we felt we didn't have a choice but to remain. The positives were that the staff members we dealt with were fantastic in particular the lovely lady who dealt with us upon arrival, the meal we had in the restaurant on our first night was extremely good as were the breakfasts. Its a really stunning building, located in a beautiful village. Such a shame that the room was so damp and our requirements were not noted, despite various confirmations.
