Overall Ratings & Reviews The Rowley Manor Hotel

Quiet & pretty grounds. Clearly quite something back in its day but the rooms are tired, dirty & need refurbishing. No basic house keeping (not even replacement clean coffee cups, bins changed) due to skeleton staff, or may be no staff. Did feel more like a hostel than hotel which is a real shame given the property history. On a positive food was reasonable & interaction with staff we did see was friendly.

Very peaceful surroundings, clean warm and comfortable rooms. The hosts are warm, friendly and welcoming. Will return.

The hotel is set in lovely parklands a mile from the local village. No directions for parking which is actually anywhere opposite the front door. Expectation was reasonably high when approaching the front door. A friendly greeting from the host who showed me to my room on the top floor. The room was fairly basic, no desk to work at, but clean with dated furniture. The bathroom is in need to a refurb. The shower is just above a dribble with the handset at it's highest point due to low water pressure. Unable to keep the bathroom window open without using a toilet roll to keep the sash up. Lastly only Decaf coffee sachets which I asked reception for the alternative only to be told they did not have any. The shop in the village was open until 7pm. On a positive note the village pub offered great food, a warm welcome and well priced tasty pub grub. Give this one a miss until a full refurb has been carried out.

Was a surprise when we arrived to how dated it was but that was the charm as thats what its about. Lovely couple who have just purchased it with great plans for the place. Great food. Will be going back again
