The heart of the site is a 14th century Grade I-listed manor house, which gives the pub its name and creates great visual impact for passing traffic.
The Manor House seamlessly merges into a collection of later add-on spaces that successfully give the rest of the pub a more contemporary feel.
Bookable space
There are art deco touches to the light and spacious interior, while the name of the restaurant area’s Blue Room reflects the colour palette of a stunning modern artwork that provides a 360˚ backdrop for diners. The pub has a modern open kitchen and a separate pizza prep area and oven.
There are attractive outside spaces both to the front and rear that make it a destination for diners and a welcome stop-off for walkers in the summer months.
The rear terrace has a horseshoe arrangement of cosy booths, while a teepee at the foot of the garden offers a bookable space for bigger groups.
Excellent service
The original manor house also has an atmospheric function room with old wooden panels and its own bar, which means private events can be an all-year-round feature.
The Manor House is one of handful of pubs in Marston’s Signature Plus category and is currently under the stewardship of manager Chris Todd and his team.
They are all dedicated to providing excellent customer service, elevating the guest experience and encouraging repeat visits. Overall, the Manor House combines tradition and modernity for a 21st century take on great British pub heritage.
