Orestone Manor Reviews

My sister very kindly gave me a break at Orestone Manor. As its not very far from where we live i would not have thought of staying here but I'm glad she booked it. The hotel is lovely. Small and welcoming. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the food is amazing, the breakfast kept us going until dinner!

Took my partner for a night at Oresone Manor for a birthday treat. The staff were friendly and helpful, the room tastefully decorated and comfortable and the inclusive evening meal was excellent. The hotel has some pleasant walks of different distances in the lovely countryside. The breakfast was sumptuous. The only minor omission was that the welcome drink promised on the web site was not forthcoming.

This staff could not be more helpful or professional. The classic room we stayed in was well appointed with a good bathroom( a shelf below the mirror would have been nice though).
All of the public rooms were also to an excellent standard.
The breakfast could not be better and dinner was food to die for. Piping hot coffee was served at breakfast and dinner,
The hotel is situated close to the South West Coast Path, and a local bus stop is a short walk away.

Really good hotel, amazing food and fantastic service

We stayed at Orestone Manor as a birthday surprise for my partner. After reading TripAdvisor reviews and the description on their website I had high expectations, but I was left disappointed.

We stayed in the garden room, first impressions were good. Lovely four poster bed, but some aspects of the room (in particular the bathroom) look a bit tired and could do with updating. The hot tub was fantastic, but there are time restrictions on its use (which I hadn t seen mentioned anywhere before our arrival).

Included in our package was a bottle of champagne in our room. I was disappointed to find out that it was Lidl s own brand. It took away the feeling of luxury, knowing that it was from a supermarket which is famous for being inexpensive.

We also had a three course set menu in the restaurant. This was lovely and very well presented, but I felt that it wasn t of the same standard as the sample menu on their website which sounded delicious, although I realise that this could be down to personal taste. We were booked in for 7.30 and finished eating at around 9pm. We were the only people in the restaurant and felt a little rushed when the music was switched off while we were eating. I jokingly said that I thought they were trying to get rid of us........... We went back to our room to relax. When we got into bed we found that the quilt was too small for the bed. We also found that the advertised sky TV package in the room did not work. The booklet in the room gives a number for reception which is manned for 24hrs. We rang hoping to get a new duvet, but couldn t get an answer so we decided to walk around to reception instead, it was now about 9.20pm. The doors to the hotel and restaurant were all locked and everything was in darkness so we went back to our room and slept in the middle of our super king bed so that we both remained under the duvet. We did complain to reception about this when we checked out the next morning. The staff were extremely polite and apologetic and they took the bottle of wine that we had ordered with dinner off our bill to make up for it, which I wasn t expecting and was a nice touch. The breakfast included in the price we paid was lovely.

This place has all the right ingredients to be a fantastic hotel, if only they pay attention to the small details as these are the things that can make or break a visit.

Had a wonderful time, great surprise for my husband 's 60th birthday fab private hot tub, four poster bed, beautiful views, and glorious food. Thankyou

Fab hotel, welcoming staff, room fantastic and loved using the hot tub, food amazing in the restaurant. Will definitely return.
