Overview
Stay in your own slice of rural Worcestershire countryside where special occasions are accompanied by the beauty of Tudor Manor. Dating back to the Elizabethan period you will walk beneath exposed beams, spot the woven lattice of ancient wattle walls and gaze across the surrounding view.
The historic elements of this Grade II listed manor make it a unique choice for your next celebration, and you are spoilt for choice of how to spend your time. Made for family reunions, a hen party or a gathering of friends there is something to suit your needs. The hot tub adds a special touch to garden drinks which are accompanied by meals prepared at the BBQ terrace. Younger guests will while away hours at the play area and snooker or darts are on the cards in the games room. Set the dining table for evening meals prepared by a private chef, light the fires to complement long conversations between old friends and couples will adore the romantic bedrooms with their four poster beds.
Add to your stay with a fabulous day out to one of the nearby attractions. National Trust properties will satisfy the history buffs in the group, golfers can head to Ombersley Golf Club and if you fancy a flutter Worcester Racecourse is just a 20-minute drive.

Synonymous with the Tudor era, the dining room matches the exterior with painted black beams and white walls. The dining table sits fireside and there is a handy drinks fridge for storing bottles of fizz to honour celebrations.
Living Room
Embracing the heritage of the manor, the living room is embraced in timber framework with a section of the old wattle and daub structure still visible. Light the fire on days spent indoors and share stories while the children enjoy a board game or watch a film together. After dinner you can relax here with coffee and make plans for the next day.

The charming kitchen has a traditional country style with a large fireplace and beams above. Set the table for breakfasts or mingle with hors d’oeuvres before the main meal in the dining room. If you’d prefer to relax why not hire a private chef for a luxurious experience.
Utility
Providing extra storage and preparation space, the utility keeps the necessities out of sight, so the noise of laundry doesn’t disturb your holiday.

One of the best properties I have ever stayed in. The house is fantastic - we went with a group of friends and kids and there was lots of play area, the rooms were great for families, the location was great (there’s a cute farm nearby), the team were very communicative and helpful. Absolutely perfect stay.
Emma
We recently stayed for the weekend to celebrate my father in law’s 70th Birthday. We were a group of 13 people, including children, and two dogs. This was the perfect place for our celebrations. A beautiful, spacious building in a secluded setting, with local amenities close by. The house was spotless and the instruction manual told us everything we needed to know. We felt right at home. We all had a fantastic time and we will definitely come back.
Amy
An impressively large house - ideal for our family gathering.

Guest
Family holiday July 2025.
We had a family holiday here in July 2025. The property is a very quaint large Tudor building and with it being originally built in the 1500's is exactly what you would expect. The bedrooms were large and the living areas big enough for a family of 8 adults.
The large grounds were great for two dogs to explore and let off steam.
The house and grounds are in need of some TLC. The various outdoor storage boxes were full of cobwebs and didn't look like they had been used for some time. This was the same for the various garden games. The area around the jacuzzi and barbeque were fill of leaves which had not been cleared away - giving a sense of neglect.
The jacuzzi only worked properly on the day we arrived - it then began to not heat the water and we had to contact the property manager for assistance - this was a protracted issue that took several days to resolve - not the managers fault as the engineer failed to turn up when they said. However we had to chase the manager who then in turn chased the engineer - in total we were 4 days out of 10 without the jacuzzi.
The modern changes to the house i.e. bathrooms are looking tired. The shower screen in the en-suite bathroom was a struggle to open and close, and grated heavily. The decor in all the bathrooms could do with refreshing.
In all a little TLC to the house and grounds would be of great benefit and provide an even better experience. It feels that the current owners have given little attention to it for sometime.

We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the character and spaciousness of the property, and that the grounds provided a great space for your family and dogs to enjoy. We’re sorry to hear that some areas of the house and garden did not meet expectations during your stay. Your comments regarding the outdoor storage boxes, garden games, and the area around the hot tub and barbecue have been shared with the owner, who has confirmed that the gardens have since been attended to and will continue to receive more regular care moving forward. The outdoor storage areas are used by the owner for personal storage and are not intended for guest use, but we appreciate your observations and have passed them along. We’re sorry to hear you experienced issues with the hot tub during your stay, and we are glad to hear that the property manager was able to get this resolved. Your feedback regarding the bathrooms and interiors has also been shared with the owner.

We stayed here with a group of friends to celebrate a special birthday. The manor house is beautiful and quirky and the grounds offer lots to do. Would definitely recommend.
Clare
A lovely house with lots to keep the kids entertained
Stayed here recently with a party of ten of us. We contacted them a few days prior asking for earlier check in as we were arriving on a Tuesday and could see it was not booked for 2-3 days beforehand, but we were told they couldn't do any earlier than 2pm, but this was better than the standard 4pm.
The Tudor Manor is a lovely house with lots to keep the children entertained on site with an amazing zip line, play area, trampoline pool table, dart board, fully stocked outdoor play store and hot tub.
The house was immaculately clean and there was a lovely welcome basket with wine, cookies, crisps, fruit, juice, milk, butter and jam.
The kitchen is well equipped, the only thing missing was a large saucepan or roaster which we needed to cook but we got round it. The extractor fan doesn't work but maybe they have it on a 'to do' list There is a single fridge in the kitchen plus a double fridge/freezer in the utility which is very handy for large parties. The utility is also equipped with washing machine, dryer and drying racks. Washing powder and softener also provided.
There are 6 bedrooms, all well laid out with plenty of storage. Most beds were comfortable but the mattress in the top bunk was very uncomfortable and we had to put another duvet on it for my nephew who didn't sleep well the first night.
The hot tub is amazing and as it was February we also used the log burner (this hadn't been cleaned out) and whilst there was a wood store, there was no kindling or matches to get it started but we made it work.
Overall we really enjoyed the house and would recommend it.
Sarah
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us on your recent stay at Tudor Manor. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Your feedback is truly appreciated and has been shared with the owner and property manager. They wish that you'd contacted them during your stay, as they would have been more than happy to visit the property to look at the extractor fan and clean the wood burner for you. We're pleased to let you know that the wood burner has now been cleaned and the extractor fan is due to be fixed as soon as possible. We hope to welcome you back to the area again soon.
- Bolthole Retreats, 27th February 2025
Bolthole Retreats Tudor Manor was amazing and better than the photos provided! They were very responsive to any enquiries and showed full support in helping me organise this trip. Would highly recommend.
Libby
We stayed at the house for two days to celebrate the New Year. We were a group of 4 families (11 in total) and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect and exactly what we all wanted. Plenty of space for us all to be together but also enough space if we wanted 5 minutes apart. The owner was so helpful from before we arrived, whilst we were there and also when we left. The space outside is also amazing and so private. We would all 100% recommend this place to stay in and can’t wait to come back again. Thank you for everything.
Laura
My friends and I were able to host our Christmas dinner here over a weekend. Absolutely perfect place for it. Cosy, warm, inviting. The hosts were very responsive and am very happy to have been there!
