Whatley Manor

About Whatley Manor

Twenty-three rooms is all Whatley Manor keeps, which gives this Malmesbury country house the feel of a private estate rather than a hotel. Set in the Cotswolds countryside near Easton Grey, it's an adults-only retreat spread across three floors, with gardens, a picnic area and outdoor seating making the most of the grounds.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, room service and drinks available in-room, and there's a bridal suite for those booking the property as a wedding venue. Food centres on Michelin-starred cooking in the restaurant, backed up by a bar, a snack bar and packed lunches for days out. The spa is the other big draw, with an indoor swimming pool, sauna, hot tub and gym on site, alongside concierge, valet parking, laundry and meeting rooms for those mixing business with the stay.

Pets are welcome, and an electric vehicle charge point and free on-site parking cover practical needs. Outside the grounds there's walking and cycling country to explore, plus horse riding, and a handful of pubs and restaurants nearby for anyone who fancies a change from the hotel's own kitchen.
