Celebrations at the Manor
The Manor Your Family Will Talk About for Years
Birthdays, reunions, Christmas, anniversaries - gather your whole group in a baroque manor house made for celebrating together
Why Groups Choose the Manor
With 11 bedrooms sleeping 22, a dining room that seats everyone around one table, a double-height Great Hall for evening gatherings, and 2 acres of riverside grounds for summer celebrations - the Manor was made for bringing people together.
Catering is available if you'd rather not cook, or the chef's kitchen with its double cookers, double dishwashers, and double fridges makes self-catering for a crowd surprisingly easy. Local takeaways from Aslans fish and chips to Thai restaurants deliver to the door.
Perfect for Every Occasion
Milestone Birthdays
From 50ths to 80ths - seat everyone around one table, toast with a view of the river, and retire to the games room

Christmas & New Year
Underfloor heating, a wood burner in the Great Hall, and a kitchen built for the biggest roast you've ever attempted

Guest Experiences
Celebrations at the Manor
Our second time at the manor and we still enjoyed it as much as the first time! A great space for our group. Monmouth, river wye, Forest of Dean

“The space to be all together all 24 of us and plenty of room to be able to be in smaller groups if needed”
“Recommends The Old Nags Head - We went here for a few drinks, the staff were lovely. The pub had pool and darts which the family loved. A very warm, welcoming pub. No, other than visit the town, as this was beautiful. The house was lovely, one of the best houses we have stayed in as a family. It has everything you could possibly need for young children to adults, it really did cater for all. The rooms were lovely, spacious and clean. The house was warm all the time, which is a big plus in the winter! A really beautiful home. A big thank you to Mike who welcomed us and checked in with us via text during our stay, he made us feel very welcomed. Only one improvement would be that the internet did not reach the whole house”
“Recommends Aslans. Despite the recent flood it was just pleasant to walk to the town & visit the market & many independent shops & cafes.”
“Aslan fish and chip bar was excellent and delivered on time”
“The local Asian fish and chip shop did an excellent group order for our first night. We walked each day. Into Monmouth or around the lanes and across nearby fields. The weather was kind with rain at night only. Our group was 17 in total and everyone enjoyed the weekend so much we would like to come back in late summer\autumn when we are all available. The house was wonderful. Thank you.”
“The manor is a fantastic venue for large family gatherings with lots of space and a variety of rooms to congregate in, including a dining room big enough so we can all eat together. It also has some great views of the surrounding countryside and a nearby river. The kitchen was equipped so we were able to cook large meals including a turkey roast. The heating works well but it would have been nice if it could have been turned up in readiness for our arrival as we had elderly relatives.”
