Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful. The rooms were spacious, with a sunken jacuzzi bath and access to a terrace that led to a charming herb garden. Everything was meticulously clean, and the bathroom offered a lovely view of the gardens. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff providing first-class service. The location was beautiful, set out into the countryside with plenty of relaxing spots to enjoy. Dining at Essebourne Manor was a superb experience, catering wonderfully to dietary needs. However, there were instances of having to stand up for ourselves, causing a bit of a disruption to an otherwise relaxing atmosphere.
The hotel offers spacious rooms individually decorated, featuring a sunken Jacuzzi bath, a king-sized bed to get lost in, and delightful homemade biscuits. The on-site dining serves delicious food cooked to order, though some items like the sausage didn’t meet our taste. The service was extremely pleasant and accommodating to our needs, compensating for any minor issues. The location, nestled in the countryside, provides a beautiful and serene setting near attractions like The Vineyard, Stonehenge, and Salisbury. Overall, a charming stay with minor dining preferences and cozy amenities.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were extremely comfortable and had everything I needed. They overlooked a beautiful garden, creating a bright and spacious atmosphere, making the dining experience enjoyable. The hotel has its own unique character. However, there were some minor issues with the dining options, but overall a great value for money.
