I’m not sure I can fully do this place justice in words, but I’ll give it a go. Hilmarton Manor is truly unbelievable—spacious, beautifully renovated, and full of character. The art and décor throughout the house are thoughtfully curated and make it a really interesting place to stay.The facilities are exceptional. Our group made great use of the gym and the private cinema—watching Arsenal lift the Premier League title in there was a definite highlight! There’s also an exceptional flower garden, which someone in our group described as something you’d expect to pay to see at a National Trust site. And that’s before even mentioning the swimming pond next to the sauna, which was a personal favourite of mine (this may have been influenced by the 30 degree weather we had!).As for the hosts, Gemma and David were simply fantastic—friendly, responsive, and always on hand to help with anything we needed… even the truly critical questions like “where are the skewers?”. I initially booked when the property had no reviews, but Gemma kindly gave me a full video tour beforehand, which was hugely appreciated and reassuring. She also recommended Chef Gary, who catered one evening for us—it was a really special experience.We had an amazing long weekend and made some fantastic memories. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hilmarton Manor to anyone.A big thank you to Gemma and David for such a memorable stay.

Why they chose this property

So many great walks, places to go and things to see! The local community are super friendly!

What makes this property unique

Built in 1820, originally a hunting lodge - this property oozes period features with a modern twist! Spacious but homely with all the amenities to make this a truly unique stay. The outdoor kitchen space is the perfect setting for friends and family to gather, located near the bar for those sundowner drinks!
The cinema room is the height of comfort, ready to watch your favourite films.
Our gym has all the equipment you would expect whilst working out with a view over the natural swimming pond.
Why not take a book and chill in the walled garden where you will find a mass of flowers blooming in the spring and summer months as well as our well cared for vegetable and fruit patch where guests can help themselves to our home produce.
Relax at the end of the day with a sauna and hot tub to ease the days tension and reset!
