Why we like it

The Manor at Abberley works especially well for a Gourmet Getaway because the AA-Rosette-level dining gives dinner real weight, while the setting gives the overnight stay its own identity.

The Manor at Abberley Restaurant

The Manor at Abberley is a 2 AA Rosette country-inn restaurant serving seasonal modern British food with Worcestershire produce and British farmers at the centre of the menu. It combines pub classics with more polished dishes rather than operating as a formal tasting-menu restaurant.

The main menu runs through the week, with Sunday given over to a dedicated roast-led menu. Food service is broadly Monday 5pm-8pm, Tuesday-Thursday 12pm-8pm, Friday-Saturday 12pm-8.30pm and Sunday 12pm-3pm.

The restaurant is on site. Expect an informal country-inn atmosphere: the food is serious enough to justify the two Rosettes, but the experience remains relaxed and accessible.

Sleep

The Manor at Abberley offers nine individually styled en-suite bedrooms, each designed for comfort and character. Rooms are named after local villages, such as Abberley, Martley, Shelsley and Tedstone, and combine soft furnishings with modern touches.

The larger rooms feature super-king beds, roll-top baths, dual sinks, and spacious showers, while all rooms include crisp white linens, feather duvets, Noble Isle toiletries, tea and coffee facilities, and complimentary Wi-Fi. Some rooms are also dog-friendly, making it easy to bring your four-legged companion along.

Guests often comment on the peaceful sleep, immaculate presentation, and luxurious bathrooms. For the best views, request a room overlooking the rolling hills of Abberley, and for extra indulgence, opt for a Deluxe King with a roll-top bath.

Retreat

Retreating to The Manor at Abberley means embracing rural tranquillity. The village of Abberley is peaceful and scenic, surrounded by rolling hills and lush countryside — perfect for walking, unwinding, and slowing down.

Enjoy a stroll through the nearby woodland or along one of the many trails that wind through Worcestershire. After a day outdoors, relax with a drink on the terrace or by the fire in the bar. The atmosphere invites you to unplug, breathe deeply, and simply enjoy the slower pace of country life.

If you’re in the mood to explore, the Malvern Hills and other local attractions are within easy reach, but you may find that the best moments are those spent doing very little — just taking in the serenity.

If you’re looking for a boutique countryside escape that blends exceptional dining, charming accommodation, and a restful rural setting, The Manor at Abberley delivers. Whether it’s a romantic weekend, a foodie stay, or simply time to recharge, this Worcestershire hideaway is a perfect choice.

Indicative build-your-own Gourmet Getaway: the live price panel combines our current accommodation-and-breakfast benchmark with the selected restaurant's dining cost for two. It is designed for comparison and is not an official hotel package price. Because room and menu prices can change, use the price panel as the current indicative figure.

What guests say

Google reviews currently average 4.6/5 from 596 reviews. The strongest recurring praise centres on the atmosphere, countryside setting, rooms, breakfast, service and dining.

Feedback is more mixed around only limited criticism across the main themes. The review pattern is unusually coherent and supports the Manor as a rounded inn stay rather than simply a good restaurant with rooms.

Gourmet Getaways view

The Manor at Abberley has the feel of a proper destination inn rather than a hotel with a restaurant attached. The Worcestershire setting, five-star-inn positioning and two-AA-Rosette cooking make it particularly appealing for a relaxed countryside night where food is one of the main reasons for going.
