Classy, foodie-destination country house hotel with two excellent restaurants and an artisan bakery on-site. Can’t recommend this place highly enough. Whether you are here to enjoy the grounds and nip into the dog-friendly bakery, out for lunch/dinner or staying overnight, there is a warm welcome awaiting you. If you are staying, remember to buy bread, cakes and fabulous cheese from the bakery for your ride home. Easily accessible by road and rail (actually on the main line between London and Birmingham - Hampton in Arden station is less than 10 minutes walk from the Manor). The two restaurants are the laid back SMOKE - the creation of MasterChef The Professionals winner Stu Deeley - and David & Anette Taylor’s cool Grace & Savour, which has a Michelin star. Michelin assess hotels too now, and have awarded the Manor two Michelin keys!
