Lovely calm setting

Lovely setting in West Bexington. The manor is good value. People are lovely and Jordan is a great asset to the team. Food at venue is good and the Drinks available more than adequate. It’s an old hotel so don’t expect everything to be flash and ultra modern, however the atmosphere is homely and calm. Very dog friendly.

This is overall a nice hotel, but the upstairs rooms are tiny, and the ceiling is very low. Don't book if you are at all claustrophobic!

10/10 Exceptional

If you want a break away from the hustle this is the perfect tonic. Staff could not be more friendly or accommodating. An idyllic setting, walk down to the pebble beach or use this as a base to drive to the nearby places and come back and enjoy the wonderful food/drinks in the spacious gardens. Thank you!

It was perfect for what I wanted - a quiet night away for us. Food was good, the location was amazing

8/10 Very good

Seemed a bit short of staff in the evening when many people were dining. Some areas of the building looked in need of attention as paint peeling and poor draining of shower tray.
