Lovely old Manor House. A bit run down now but quite charming with lovely grounds. Staff were very helpful and friendly. We stayed two nights - room was comfortable and spacious... large bed with a mattress on the firm side. Bathroom/shower badly in need of an update but clean and served its purpose. Competent restaurant (great poached eggs at beakfast) but their kitchen is closing 6.8.23 for guests. I think they'll still cater for functions. See their website for details.

I was a guest at a wedding last weekend. Beautiful grounds and lovely picturesque building. The bedrooms were nice and spacious, lovely firm mattress! The food for the wedding was brilliant and a good selection for breakfast. The staff were helpful and friendly for the whole visit, the gardens were beautiful and there was plenty of garden games for the kids too! The only downside was a small carpark but there was alot of guests. We were recommended the afternoon tea many times so we will be back to try that soon! Rooms: Plenty of room, lovely big bed and firm mattress, nice and clean. Food & drinks: Very good food and drinks on offer!

I've just been here twice, for lunch. I live too close to need to stay. It's a lovely building in nice grounds. Food has been first class both times, as has service. Shame that it's closing in a month. It's been on the market for a year at …

What a fabulous stay we had here. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with complimentary refreshments provided. We stayed for 2 nights and the meals served were simply amazing. Super surroundings and service throughout. I would thoroughly recommend.

Excellent service and food , we had the Tasting menu and it was some of the best food we have tasted. Hotel is dated but we liked its charm and couldn’t fault the staff and cleanliness of the hotel and grounds. We would highly recommend for a relaxed stay and I’m sure we will be back in the future x

This was our Second visit and I would give it a strong 7 out of 10. Scones on arrival is a such a nice touch and the 6 course evening tasting menu was lovely. The service was impeccable. Joanne’s massage was fantastic and an absolute treat …

Lovely stay at Essborne Manor, rooms were lovely and spacious, with some nice original features. Everyone very friendly and helpful. But the highlight of our stay was the food....wow !! Tasted as wonderful as it looked. The hotel is out in the sticks, so no pubs or shops within walking distance, but no problem for us as only there one night.

I have visited several times for family meals. However, this was my first visit for Sunday lunch. It was fantastic. A warm welcome from the staff & we were shown into a private lounge for drinks. We had a circular table in the dining room for Sunday lunch. There is a buffet available for starter, desert & cheese. It was very impressive with a wide choice available, something to suit everyone's tastes. You could have as much or as little as you wanted & it was great to be able to try a bit of several different delicious deserts than be limited to just one! The main course is from a set menu but there are several options including different roasts, vegetarian, fish etc. Most of my party had the beef which was delicious & cooked to our choosing. My daughter had the mushroom tagliatelle, which she thoroughly enjoyed. Tea & coffee are also included in the price, making it exceptional value. The staff were all friendly & efficient & the food was excellent. We all thoroughly enjoyed our celebratory meal.
