Charney Manor

My wife and I came here for a bit of quiet time and to enjoy the local area. The house and gardens are charming and the countryside lovely. I enjoyed using the library and the lounge. The bedroom was comfortable with good shower and bath facilities as well as a TV. We found the staff friendly and helpful. There is a good continental breakfast and it was no problem to make our own arrangements for the rest of the day. In view of the location and facilities we thought the cost was very reasonable. We would happily return.

On checking in after a long day driving, I asked what time the restaurant closed and was informed there were no on site facilities. Only continental breakfast was available. The room was upstairs in an out building smelt damp and foisty as did the corridor. The room had a 6ft single bed pushed against two walls, not facing the tiny tv. The furniture was cheap and tacky and the bed was so uncomfortable, certainly past its sell by date and squeaked every time you moved. The window was the original metal frame which I understand due to listing regulations but no secondary glazing. The bathroom what a joke, small, smelly, dated with the the obligatory brown stain in the toilet basin. I don’t think the taps come under listing regs, please change them? Forget having a shower if you’re not a child as you will touch each wall simultaneously and the yellow controllers were off putting. Saving the best for last the stench in the bathroom and bedroom is unbearable when you flush the toilet. I can honestly say I did not sleep and felt totally miserable after a truly awful experience and then having a 6 hour trip home, which was very dangerous. I wouldn’t wish my room and stay on my worst enemy.

Lovely location. Room was good very comfortable. Only fault was the Wi Fi rubbish quite frustrating for Business people having to work Would be beneficial if they sold some light snacks not just drinks as no restaurant in the evenings. Overall stay great

I undertook a retreat type thing at this Manor House. The rooms are quirky if you like that kind of thing. However, the food was absolutely awful!! Poorly thought out and poorly made. Tasteless and watery. The breakfast is exactly the same which is tedious for a 7 day stay. I had dietary requirements and they catered to them poorly. I woukd never stay here again. !!!!

We have just organised a happy and successful retreat at Charney Manor. The beauty of this historic building and its gardens, the excellent comfortable accommodation and facilities, the amazingly varied and imaginative food (all vegetarian in this case), and the attention given by the staff to our every need, were outstanding. We would thoroughly recommend it to organisers of this kind of event. The only negative – a very poor mobile phone signal.

I went looking for a place of quiet and peace in order simply to recharge. Charney Manor proved to be perfect. Set in a quiet village and beautiful countryside it was a delight. I was housed in a single, en-suite room which was well maintained and cleaned and very comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful and I felt very welcome. I spent part of each day in the delightful grounds, enjoying in the middle of a heatwave, the shade of it's many trees. I look forward to my next stay there in the not-to-distant future.
