Plumber Manor Country House Hotel

Enjoyed a 60th birthday meal at this excellent establishment. They could not have been more helpful and accommodating and the attention from everyone was exceptional. The food was excellent though choosing was difficult as I wanted everything on the menu. If you want to treat someone, have a special occasion or simply want to have a great meal out where you don't have to worry about the quality then go to Plumber Manor. In terms of cost I thought it was excellent value.

We had a lovely stay for 2 nights with dinner booked on the 2nd night. The hotel is a wonderful property with lovely grounds. The food was exceptional and we wished we had booked dinner for both nights. A big thank you to the owner and staff who gave such a warm welcome. Be warned the family size drinks will knock your socks off.

My wife and I stayed overnight at Plumber Manor to celebrate her 80th Birthday. The welcome on arrival, the warm and comfortable room and an excellent dinner, followed by breakfast the next morning all made for a wonderful Birthday treat.
All the staff are courteous, efficient and friendly. Ten out of ten!

I have been visiting Plumber Manor since the late 70’s I am sure I am not stopping any time soon.
I have had a loverly stay along with my friends the Tirners.
Thank you once again

The menu and cooking are both first class, and the friendly welcome and service superb. We both enjoyed Sunday lunch in this beautiful old building.

Such a wonderful place, full of character. Dinner was scrumptious and generous, and the fields outside offered great space for our dog to burn it off. Service was attentive and very welcoming. Will return.

Lovely staff in such a lovely setting. Relaxed atmosphere with delicious food and comfortable rooms.

We received a warm welcome to Plumber Manor and the service throughout was excellent. We had a large courtyard bedroom with an extremely comfortable bed (with a large umbrella for the times it rained getting to the main house). Spacious bathroom with lovely toiletries
The house and gardens are beautiful.
The dinner menu had good and delicuous choices, with some changes each day, and with a magnificent wine list! Charting to the owner in the bar after dinner was fun.
Breakfast was really good.
Tea and coffee facilities in the room (with scrummy home made shortbread as well). The only possible improvement I could think of would be to provide a way of making a better coffee than instant in the bedrooms.
Thanks to all the welcoming, friendly and helpful staff.

Stayed at Plumber Manor overnight for a wedding. Everything from the location, the grounds, the house itself, the people and the service was absolutely top notch. Nothing was too much trouble including helping us navigate last minute taxis and anxiety! I regret I did not have chance to try the food which I am told is amazing. It was a truly luxurious and romantic stay. Looking forward to staying again.

Plumber Manor always a wonderful stay and amazing dinner service. We’ve been there twice and we will keep returning because it feels like a gentle country home and never like a hotel! Richard and his wife and staff are always such great hosts

Great stay at this charming hotel. Touch of class with a homely touch. Lovely room with a really comfy bed. Tasty, quality breakfast served with a smile. Thanks for the welcome, we enjoyed our stay for the weekend!!

We enjoyed a lovely evening & dinner at this beautiful hotel .
Set in a very peaceful setting. & fantastic building. Very hospitable owner . Thank you

Excellent 2 night stay in characterful accommodation, excellent cuisine, and very well kept grounds.

Went for dinner & a nights stay for my Mum's 80th. Hadn't been for 30 years but Plumber still delivers the old-school country charm and amazing (yet non-fussy) food I remember it for. Loved going back and can't recommend it enough - thanks to all for a lovely evening, night and morning.

Our stay was everything one can expect from a perfect local-feel friendly and scenic English countryside stay. My wife even complimented me on my choice of hotel. QED.

A unique and magical experience in a home that has been cherished and treasured over generations of our hosts' family. They went beyond great service providing true hospitality, with delicious food and facilities of timeless charm.

An absolute gem. Stay at an authentic manor house set in beautiful tranquil grounds. A combination of a classy historic hotel and being a guest at someone’s home. It’s welcoming and informal, whilst being slick and professional in an effortless way. The restaurant is excellent and exceptional value on its own, which explains its popularity with both guest and locals. On arrival, we were welcomed by Angus the black Labrador who wanders over to meet you wagging his tail. After being shown our room, some tea and melt in the mouth fruitcake on the terrace gets you off to a relaxed pace. G&T overlooking the garden, whilst perusing the dinner menu eating canapes. Forget Relais and Chateaux this is the real thing, unfussy and tasteful. We will definitely return.

I have been to Plumber a number of times over the years and it's one of the few places that never disappoints. On this visit I was introducing my other half to it for the first time. And it's fair to say it's charmed him too. The owners say they like guests to feel like part of the family and it's actually the feeling one gets. The house and grounds are beautiful. And the food is delicious.

An idyllic weekend spent with family in peaceful and beautiful surroundings. The staff were cheerful , pleasant and helpful and the front of house owners a delightful welcoming and friendly couple. Nothing was too much trouble and we hope to return for another family reunion next year. Thanks to everyone.

I first came here for dinner 40 years ago, and when our BA flights to Milan were cancelled at short notice, I remembered this venue, so called and was lucky to be able to book for 3 nights.
From the moment we arrived to when we left, the service was first class.
The owner, Richard Prideaux-Brune and his staff were all very friendly, helpful and professional.
The double room with the separate bathroom was perhaps the best one in the house.
The cuisine was excellent and with fine wines.
The teatime treats of home made fruit cake and biscuits were also much appreciated.
I have no hesitation in awarding a 5 star.
We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay.
