Usually a big fan of the Cellar Bar, a wonderful location to sit outside having a pint and take in the seaside air. Booked for Sunday lunch, three of us opted for the roast chicken. It was delicious BUT their ?half a chicken crown? was really disappointing (for all of us), especially as i had been reassured before ordering that the serving included the chicken breast (spoiler, it did not!). Not worth the £20 odd quid a head.

Tried to book a table on-line 24 hours in advance. Had an email back to say they would be in touch shortly to confirm. By the following day, still no confirmation. Tried emailing again, no response! Tried phoning multiple times, but each time went to answerphone. Appalling customer service!!

Lovely building, beautiful location but our experience was disappointing. We waited more than an hour after ordering our food.
Steak was very dry, no condiments or sauce was offered. Seafood linguine lacked any seafood bar one mussel. Chicken supreme had barely a teaspoon of the advertised jus to accompany it. A jug of jus was brought to the table following a request.
Desserts were also a long time arriving at the table.
We had looked forward to going but sadly The Manor House did not live up to our expectations.

This hotel is in a beautiful coastal location. It lies in beautiful grounds. The food is delicious. As for the staff, they are amazing and very hard working . Matt and Millie are exceptional and arranged a wake following my sister in laws (Lucy) cremation. Thank you so much and hopefully i will be returning soon.

After a long walk at the beach and the South Dorset hiking path we rested for a pint and some food. It was great! The sun went down, we were sitting outside and enjoyed the evening. We had a veggy burger and stroganoff. A very nice location. But some seat cushions would have been nice.Vegetarian options: Veggy burger was great.

We very much enjoyed our Celebration Dinner here with 3 other couples. The service was very efficient, attentive & friendly from Aaron & Millie. The 3 course meal from the a la carte was for the most part excellent, although I was a little disappointed in what was described as ?crispy duck leg? - not crispy & unattractive rather stringy meat, but the whole dish was attractively served with Dauphinoise potatoes, green veg & carrot puree. All the other dishes were well liked, especially the fish & the scallops. Good wine list, & several very good value, especially the Chilean Sauvignon Blanc. Our marks out of 5 Food 4. Service 5 Ambiance 4 Value 5

Fantastic place with amazing staff. This 16th century Manor House is definitely how it was described. Food was out of this world... The Sunday Roast is a must. Will definitely be back again. Thank you Steven and the team.

Last month we held our wedding at the Manor House Hotel. Huge thanks to Lyndsey, Stephen, Millie and everyone at the Manor House who helped make our wedding weekend perfect! From the moment we met Lyndsey and started discussing our wedding plans, we knew we were in safe hands. Lyndsey was friendly, organised, enthusiastic and everything you could want in someone who was helping to organise your wedding. Nothing was too much trouble and we were able to tailor it to be the day/weekend that was right for us. We had the best time and were both so relaxed because we knew they had everything under control. All our guests were complimentary about the bedrooms, food, and the friendliness of all the staff. We 100% would recommend having a wedding at the Manor House. We?re looking forward to going back for a meal again soon!

We have just returned from a four night stay at this wonderful hotel. Stephen and Lyndsey run a very friendly and professional establishment. From the moment we arrived until the day we left we felt welcomed and looked after. Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff and each one of them made our stay memorable. We ate at the hotel most nights as the food and ambiance was so good. The views from the hotel are amazing and the location for exploring the area is great. This was the perfect place to stay to get away from it all and would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of booking to stay here. Well done to Stephen, Lyndsey and their team. Keep up the good work.

Beautiful place! Cosy room, comfy beds and clean bathroom. Astonishing view and very friendly staff. Food was delicious! Steve, the in house manager, was super welcoming with a nice ?ready to help? attitude that made me feel at home. Lovely!

What a hidden gem! Had a beautiful stay at the weekend, all staff very friendly and welcoming. The food was amazing. So close to the beach, could hear the sea at night. Had a sea view from our room, which was lovely. Will book again.
