We had the most wonderful stay at the Manor, the photos do not do it justice! We were blown away with the size of the property, SUCH comfy beds, the most wonderful house, everything we could have hoped for and more.
We're already looking at when we can book again.
We stayed as a group of ladies, friends and family for a civilised hen do weekend, we didn't realise the pool was only open May - September, however Maryam was very helpful and we were able to use the pool,
We were delighted with the property and would definitely recommend.

Perfect for a family get together
We stayed at Holcombe for my husband’s 40th (which we had to delay due to Covid) and it was well worth the wait. Maryam was on hand to answer any questions and patient and informative with us through the rebooking process.
The property itself is amazing, and the rooms are even bigger than they look in the pictures. Plenty of space for everyone to do their own thing or come together as they choose. And the kids loved the playground area. Everyone had a fantastic time and we definitely hope to return in the future.

Fantastic family stay
We had a fantastic few days at the Manor for a multi generational family birthday celebration.
It’s an incredible property - exactly as per the photos, in a beautiful part of the world. The outdoor space really is exceptional and the children LOVED the playground. Swimming pool was great for all the family. Wonderful hosting space indoors and sufficiently big for a bit of downtime too!
Hosts were great - everything was very smooth and easy. Would highly recommend and will definitely return in the future.

Beautiful house, gorgeous garden with a lovely warm pool, convenient location (especially for young children as it is opposite a park and play area). We were able to spread out when we wanted and be together when we wanted. The house was well equipped and we wanted for nothing. Small issues were dealt with immediately. We are looking forward to visiting again!

We had a great 3 night stay in October. The house is really well equipped and exactly what you would hope from a Manor House with large beautiful rooms and a stunning garden. The local walks were perfect and the boot room was ideal for our dogs. We’d love to come back in the summer to make more of the outside space. Communication was really good with both the owner and property manager. Thank you!

Spectacular Property
The owners took excellent care of us in the property - they went out of their way to make sure that we had everything that we needed and when the weather wasn't perfect they volunteered lots of suggestions on how we could keep busy locally.
The property itself is wonderful, incredibly spacious and well appointed. It's a big space to keep tidy, so it was the cherry on top of our holiday to have been able to arrange cleaners that would come in regularly to assist!

Great house for large groups!
I visited the house with a group of friends for our annual uni reunion and it was perfect for what we needed. The rooms are all amazing and the hot tub and pool table added something extra! Maryam was easy to communicate with and the check-in and check- out process was smooth. The area has lots of great walks and nice pubs close by. Would highly recommend for families or groups of friends!

Magical. Majestic. Magnificent. Must book!
We spent Monday-Friday as a group of four families at this beautiful manor home. Couldn't recommend it more highly. We absolutely loved it, and we barely left the home - the only time being when we went to the local pub, the Holcombe Inn. This property is brilliant. Beautiful grounds. Nice swimming pool. Great jacuzzi. Very spacious bedrooms. I would happily go back again.

Fabulous property and location
18 of us gathered for my mums 70th birthday in Maryam’s lovely home. Everything about it is wonderful. Huge bedrooms, comfy beds, beautifully decorated, lovely gardens and huge, warm pool. Even better than the pics. This property was at the top of our budget but worth every penny. The weather was even good. Local pub Holcombe Inn is a 7 min walk with lovely service and great food.
