An exquisitely furnished, elegant manor house situated amidst Hardy country and near the Jurassic coast, wend the country lanes to enter the beautiful grounds of Regency Manor.

Inside

• Bedrooms: 7 grand, luxurious bedrooms: 5 doubles (2 en suite and the others share a family bathroom); a double master bedroom (en suite) and a twin room.
• For relaxation: Chill out in the comfy lounge overlooking the picturesque grounds; sink into a sofa in the drawing room that opens out onto the patio; get cosy in the library amongst the towering bookshelves.
• For recreation: Lap the heated indoor pool, challenge your partner to a croquet tournament or tennis match perhaps

Outside

In the lush gardens you will find a tennis court, stables and paddocks. French doors open out on the sunny patio area where you will find BBQ facilities and a Jamie Oliver wood-fired pizza oven. The garden leads from established borders to informal grassland with the breathtaking views beyond.

Guests Comments

'This is such an amazing property - the photos don't do it justice! The perfect home for a relaxing break; making the most of the pool was the only thing that dragged us away from the roaring fires! We'll definitely be back!'

'We were hoping to get away from it all and have some family timeout; Regency Manor ticked all the boxes plus more! We barely left the house for the duration of our stay and came home feeling rejuvenated!'
