    Superb Valentines Weekend Away

    Liked: We visited The Slaughter as a young couple (both 25), and it truly couldn’t have been any more perfect. We stayed for two nights over Valentine’s in the beautiful manor, enjoying a generously sized deluxe room with a lovely view overlooking the front garden. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The lounge areas were warm, elegant, and incredibly inviting — the perfect spots to relax and unwind. Our room was superbly clean, beautifully presented, and exceptionally well equipped with everything we could possibly need (the Dyson fan & hairdryer were a nice touch). Every detail felt carefully thought through, which made the stay feel extra special. The staff were outstanding — so polite, attentive, and genuinely welcoming throughout. For just an extra five pounds, breakfast can be delivered straight to your room, which was an absolute no-brainer and such a lovely added touch. The location was perfect too, a short walk took us to Bourton on the water, and a sub 30 minute drive to the likes of Broadway etc. We genuinely couldn’t fault the manor in any way. It was perfect from start to finish.

    Fabulous evening

    Liked: Just had the most fantastic evening at the Slaughters Manor House. We stayed over the road at the Country inn but were advised to try cocktails in the bar at the Manor House. The cocktails were first class and a huge thank you to the staff who kept the atmosphere going with a special mention to Connor, amazing at his job and had us all in fits of laughter! Such a great evening and a beautiful place. Will be back!

    Lovely atmosphere and location. Unsatisfactory cleanliness and service

    Liked: I thought the hotel itself was lovely, it’s in a quaint village, one I’ve passed through many times before, and I’d always loved this manor house, so I was genuinely very excited to finally stay here. However, the service and the room were unfortunately not up to standard. We arrived on a Saturday around 14:00. Although check-in wasn’t until 15:00, we were able to check in early and were shown to our room promptly. At first glance, everything was beautiful, until it wasn’t. When using the bathroom for the first time upon entering the room, it was clear that it had not been properly cleaned. There was residue and tissue left in the toilet, no toilet roll, and used hygiene products still left in the bin, which was very unpleasant. As we headed out to Bourton for a late lunch and I informed the receptionist about the issue and asked if the bathroom could be cleaned and the towels and robes replaced, as we no longer felt confident they were fresh. When we returned, nothing had been done. I ended up having to sort some of it out myself and went back to reception to request toilet roll. Later, when getting ready for dinner, I tried to close the curtains for privacy, only to find that they wouldn’t shut properly. After a lovely dinner, we asked if someone could help us with the curtains, as we did not want to break anything and as the lights outside the manor were shining directly into the room. Someone came up, but instead of using the mechanism, they simply yanked them closed. This didn’t solve the problem, and a beam of light still shone across the bed throughout the entire night. This however did distract us from the very bright green light from the Fire Exit Door in our room also. We were then woken early by the sunrise and struggled to fall back asleep. Before breakfast we decided to have a coffee to wake us up, we went to use the Nespresso machine in the room just to find that there were decaf pods only, this made it feel quite pointless. On a positive note, breakfast was absolutely lovely. Upon check-out, I reminded the staff of these issues, but my concerns were swept under the carpet with little acknowledgment. Overall, I left feeling disappointed. For an anniversary weekend away, this stay was short of our expectations.

    Disappointed

    Liked: We were looking forward to a Champagne Afternoon Tea for my wife and I. A Fathers Day present from my daughter and Son in law. I’ll be fair, but overall you could do much better. The sandwiches were very average, M&S sandwiches are so much better. The scones were delicious but two silly little pots of clotted cream and jam were not even enough to two scones so we had to ask for more. You charge a premium price so this fell short of a premium service.

    Lovely building. Unhelpful staff

    Liked: This is a lovely manor house in the charming village of Lower Slaughters. I rated it a 3 because the staff is inattentive and very unhelpful. We are out in the country and they could not be bothered to direct us to the equestrian center where we prepaid riding at the hotel’s recommendation. This facility was 5 minutes away and because our google maps” didn’t work, we missed our paid reservation. When I asked the front desk for suggestions for sight- seeing she replied “ there isn’t anything- this is it”. We are traveling with our well- behaved 10 year old grandson and so are staying in a suite. We have been provided two sets of towels and since our room phone did not work my husband went out into the rain to the front desk to get more towels… All this for over $780 a night. Because of cancellation fees we are stuck here for 3 nights. I do not recommend this establishment.
