Conferences

Room Layouts

 

The Old Manor Hotel is a fabulous Grade II listed property, set in 4.5 acres of gardens and farmland. The rambling hotel has 19 individually decorated bedrooms, all ensuite, each with its own unique character. The rooms are spread over the rambling main house and various converted or rebuilt farm buildings. The property is not a typical conference centre. It is a "Johansens Recommended Hotel”, with 5 Diamonds awarded by Visitbritain (The English Tourism Council).

Conferences and meetings can be hosted either in the main dining room/conservatory or the private dining room of the manor house. During the summer, the large patio and gardens can also be used to give a more relaxed atmosphere.

We have a mown 2.5 acre field which can be used for team building or a good old fashioned game of football or softball.
