Nothing wrong with the hotel but could be better. Positives: friendly staff, nice building / courtyard, good location. Negatives: nowhere charging over 170 / night for a room should serve canned mandarin segments at breakfast. We also booked a room with a view which as the room was on the ground floor was quite restricted and if a car had parked in front of our window we wouldn't have had a view.

We stayed at the Blakney manor Hotel as part of a trip to spread my late fathers ashes. I have to say the stay here was excellent. The staff were superb. Rooms were large, clean and comfortable. You could here people above you walking in the courtyard rooms but not being a light sleeper this was not a problem. We went for the package that includes breakfast and dinner. Food was excellent and plenty of it. Restaurant staff were great. Great value for money all in all.

First time here but would recommend a visit. Staff helpful, breakfast and dinner great lots to choose from the menu. Lovey outlook over the marshes and a good circular walk of 7 miles.
