This hotel is situated in the idyllic village of West Bexington up from Chesil Beach and a great restaurant (The Club House). It was great value for money. The breakfast was particularly good and the location fantastic.

From the moment we arrived we instantly appreciated our surroundings. The Manor House is tastefully decorated, clean and very welcoming. The staff were lovely and nothing too much trouble for them. Breakfast was excellent with a good amount of choices. Unfortunately we had only booked in for one night but made the most of the fabulous views and wallowed in the peace and quiet. Absolute heaven. We have made a promise to ourselves to return for a longer stay.

Lovely experience, been to west bexington a few times but never stayed but now i have i wouldnt stay anywhere else. Lovely staff nice breakfast and a nice comfortable bar to unwind in the evening. As we were there for a fishing trip was ideal for access to the beach and so peaceful at night so a good sleep was great.

The hotel was amazing. The views, the rooms and the food (extra helpings were had). And the staff actively went out of their way to cater to our every need.

All you needed for a peaceful overnight stay in a rural Chesil Beach village. Plenty of outside seating and wonderful open views. The Manor House has character in spades. The staff have to do a good job keeping housekeeping, bar and restaurant running smoothly. Our room was small but in keeping with the nature of the building. Restaurant food was excellent although service was pushed given the full capacity generated by a bank holiday weekend with excellent weather.

We had a great 2 night stay and were made welcome. Beautiful views. Great location as it is quiet. Food was very good. We ate an evening meal and also breakfast. Lots of choices. The room walls must be quite thin as could here a TV in another room through the bathroom but was not a problem as it was early evening. The bathroom had a small step up to it and was a great shower. We stayed in April and the rooms were cosy and warm.
