Reviews of Higher Melcombe Manor

At Higher Melcombe Manor we are very lucky to have a number of excellent and appreciated reviews.

Here are the reviews we have received recently:



"Stumbled across Higher Melcombe Manor by chance, an amazing manor house located in beautiful deepest Dorset. The house and gardens are amazing. A perfect venue. Stayed in August 2015, as a couple"


"We had a glorious couple of days in Dorset at Higher Melcombe Manor at the end of August. The house is wonderful and the rooms really comfortable. We had such a fun couple of days, I have never wanted to return anywhere so much as there. It was just great"


"A beautiful, secluded, historic home, with charming, most welcoming hosts, scrumptious breakfasts, log fires, incredibly comfortable beds, and complete peace and quiet. We have no hesitation in recommending Higher Melcombe Manor for the perfect, relaxing break in wonderful surroundings"


"Once again, Higher Melcombe Manor does not disappoint. Long walks, sitting by the fire, feeding the horses, you name it. It's so peaceful and quiet, and the beds are so comfortable. You don't ever want to leave. My cousin was over from the USA and really enjoyed it as well. I will definitely come back for years to come"


"What an amazing escape from the city!!!! From the excellent views, green rolling hills, very clean facilities, comfortable beds, starry night skies, fun, kind and interesting owners - Higher Melcombe Manor is an amazingly unique trip!!! There is wifi, but turn the phones and email off and go for a nice hike up the hill where there are 360 degree views of the beautiful estates all around. Great food as well. Definitely would return!!!"


"If you crave tranquility and an email-free respite from a frantic city working week, Higher Melcombe Manor is the place for you - a part Medieval, part Victorian manor house in the middle of the beautiful Dorsetshire countryside. Incredibly comfortable beds - lovely White Company linen and siberian goosedown duvets - made for the best night's sleep in ages. Add to that an awesome breakfast, very agreeable host and lots of fresh country air (not to mention an elegant & friendly lurcher), you've a recipe for a perfect weekend break. We can't wait to go back"


"Great weekend away. I totally recommend Melcombe Manor for a relaxing weekend away. The place oozes with charm and history"


"Just returned from a wonderful stay - a beautiful 'get-away' location, incredibly comfy bed, relaxed yet luxurious feel. Would definitely recommend a stay"


"We spent two nights at this charming and cosy hideaway in the rolling rural landscape of Dorset. Much more than a country B+B, this is indeed a special place to stay. The welcome is warm and one feels like a valued friend invited down for the weekend. We loved the attention to detail in the decor, the furniture and accessories ... and also the little thoughtful touches like the blazing log fire that greeted our arrival, the cut flowers in our bedroom, and the lit scented candle in our bathroom. The house stands in its own secluded valley with no other building in sight. The breakfasts are lovely ... highly recommended"


"Higher Melcombe Manor is a fantastic place to stay. If you need a weekend away I totally recommend a trip down to the country. Great walks in the hills and a warm and cosy fireplace to warm you up after your return"


"Just arrived home after staying here for two nights. we had a lovely relaxing time. It is an impressive but comfortable house. Lots of tea, coffee, towels and bathroom products. We felt like house guests. The small kitchen and sitting room adjacent to our room was useful and it was nice to sleep without the ubiquitous television in the room. We'd love to return and maybe get to stay in the very impressive room with panelling"


"An absolute treat! We were taken care of from the moment we stepped through the door. See for yourself and enjoy"


"The owner could not have gone to more trouble to make us feel at home and to ensure that our every need was met. The immaculate rooms are fabulous. The food was delicious, and there was a lovely tray of tea every time we appeared back at Higher Melcombe. It was excellent in every way"
