We have just bid a sad farewell to this wonderful hotel before it closes in November. We spent our honeymoon at the Manor House 38 years ago, and have enjoyed many happy visits since including family holidays, milestone birthdays, and our Silver Wedding anniversary in 1999. The staff, as always, were helpful and friendly, the food excellent. Many thanks to... More

We have just returned from a wonderful 3 night break at this hotel. We really enjoyed the room, the location (definitely - it's glorious), the food and the walks and news that it is to become A Pig on the Beach strikes me as perfect - playing to its location; its focus on good food but giving the accommodation a...

Really very sad. We had so many wonderful breaks at our favourite haven. The stress just dropped off the moment you arrived. The staff were fantastic and the food delicious. It was like staying in your own country residence for a few days! It was also great trying to work your way through staying in each of the rooms! The... More

We had our honeymoon here back in 1982 and returned for our 30th anniversary with our children (adults really). Stayed in Westminster again, and really little has changed save for the new bathroom. Very comfy bed and immaculate. Best location anywhere with outstanding views. Thankyou for making our return so lovely. Yes, the hotel does need to move with the... More

My husband and I are so sad that this wonderful country house hotel with the best sea views in the country is to be sold.We have spent 3 and 5 day breaks here over 6 years and each visit has been a relaxing treat. Kind and helpful staff, delicious dinners, and large yummy breakfasts all included in the price.New owners... More

I visited for 3 nights on my own, with my boisterous but well behaved Springer Spaniel Molly. I agree with previous reviewers that the hotel is very very old fashioned - dinner bed and breakfast is inflexible, and I didn't want a four course meal on every night, and the table allocation is really odd! The food is quite good... More

My husband and I were initially attracted to the hotel because of its location and the positive reviews. We stayed for two nights and paid 200 pounds per night DBB. Since the hotel is closing soon, I wondered about writing a review, however, hopefully the new owners will read this and make some very necessary changes before it re-opens. Positive... More

We stayed a night at the Manor House Hotel to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday as we had lovely memories of previously staying here twenty three years ago when I was pregnant with our first daughter & coincidentally we were booked into the same room. Studland is one of our favourite places to visit in Britain & we were delighted... More

I arranged a celebratory Saturday lunch for 14 people at the Manor House Hotel and my experience was a very good one. I arrived early to check things out and I was pleased to see that the table was well laid out in the conservatory and that some forethought had been applied in that we also (without requesting it) had...
