Absolutely sensational evening meal here with my partner for her birthday. Service was absolutely impeccable, with great attention to detail. We went for the tasting menu with accompanying wine flights, which was a great choice. All of the dishes were of a very high quality, and presented with care. All dishes were also well explained by the staff, who genuinely seemed to care about us and the food they were serving. Wine was well paired, with good flavours and quality. Very good experience and will be returning in the not too distant future.

An amazing place to stay. A very special treat experience. My husband attended the cookery school, then in the evening we had a seven course dinner. Fantastic food, we were very full!The grounds are beautiful and interesting,with some great statues. The staff are wonderful; always smiling and welcoming, they do there utmost to make guests feel comfortable. Wish we could afford to go more often!

Thank you for a wonderful time for my mums Birthday , we had a wonderful privet room and where looked after amazingly. The rooms are a classic style not what I normally like but loved it here, being able to steam to the TV is something we appreciated. Also felt extremely comfortable as a LGBT couple, the added extras make a massive difference , home made lemon cake in the room, bottle of fizz and when leaving a good bye bag of goodies. Its well worth the price and honestly puts London 5* hotels to shame. All staff are trained to very high level and very attentive with out making you feel uncomfortable. Cant wait to return in the future with our two pups !

From the arrival through the gates to our departure Le Manoir exceeded all my prior expectations of service quality and sheer indulgence. We celebrated our 30th anniversary with a night at Le Manoir. The service was seamless and unobtrusive, like a Swiss watch. The room (Manon) was huge with a glorious bathroom. The welcome treats were gorgeous. The champagne and especially the chocolates were superb. The gardens were beautiful both in the rain and in the morning sunshine a real treat to walk around. The evening meal was a masterclass of modern cookery, every course was a treat and the service superb. Special mention to the bread basket which I had to hold myself back from devouring the entire selection. Breakfast the following morning was a special treat in the conservatory, with nothing being too much trouble. The pastries were heavenly. I can think of no better way of celebrating a special event and look forward to returning in the future.

Came for a memorable lunch. Park out front, the welcome and service is exquisite, the food a delight of flavours, textures and colours. Pleasant garden to walk round with large veg plot though showing signs of time of year and some neglect probably covid related. Fabulous way to celebrate an anniversary.

Just the best indulgent venue ever. Amazing grounds, beautiful rooms, top drawer service and incredible food. Probably the best tasting menu I've ever tried, especially with the wine flight. One caveat is that it's VERY expensive. "Weekend away in Europe" expensive, however if you're celebrating a special occasion, I don't think you can beat it. So much history, thought and continually improving to keep it at the top of their game. Thank you team, we had an unforgettable experience.

In many ways we had an incredible and memorable meal as many others have described. Food was 90% beyond reproach. If I’m honest I think the ambience and service could be slightly warmer compared to say the Waterside Inn which is comparably priced. The sommelier was fine but poured enormous measures, meaning he was soon angling to sell another bottle. This is usually a skill one sees in top restaurants: making wine last. It would be 5 stars, but I knocked one off as even though tea and coffee are on the tasting menu, they wanted another £10 to put hot water on a teabag, which was a poor way to end a £2000 dinner.
