The manor house and gardens are a magical backdrop for a large family gathering, a birthday celebration or a special occasion. The grounds include lawns and a walled garden, rookery woodland, kitchen garden as well as a folly and there are views of the sea and stunning Heritage Coast of Glamorgan.

The space

Designed for highly memorable gatherings and celebrations with family and friends, the manor house is perfect for living it up in style. Plus, the services of a private caterer or chef can be booked for everything from a four-course dinner to a sumptuous buffet.



For a special event, there are a number of rooms that can be set up. The mirrored ballroom, that features chandeliers and panoramic sea views, can seat up to 40 guests for lunch or dinner.



If it's something more informal you're looking for, there is a garden room that offers indoor/outdoor space that will seat everyone comfortably and is perfect for a garden party.



Meanwhile, you will have access to the estate's 9 acres of gardens and grounds which are perfect for a quiet stroll. Relax and socialise in the rookery or the walled gardens, while beautiful sunsets over the sea can be admired from the folly.



The manor house has 7 exquisite and individually themed bedrooms. From designer wallpapers and sumptuous fabrics, to handpicked vintage accessories and fine bed linens, every inch of space is luxurious. Bedrooms are spread over the first and second floors, and some feature the roof trusses of the 13th century part of the manor.



There's a beautifully romantic suite, designed to the brief of David Emanuel (best known for co-designing Diana, Princess of Wales' wedding dress).
