We recently visited Maunsel House for our friend's wedding. The day was fantastic, the staff were friendly and helpful which makes all the difference when it's such a special event. It was very relaxed and felt like it was our home almost as we had full access to the house and gardens etc. We really liked its character and period... More

Wow that's a long trip! We are so pleased that your experience at Maunsel House was such an enjoyable one. We always keep a relaxed atmosphere here at Maunsel whilst still celebrating the history of the house and Sir Ben's penchant for antiques. Thanks again from all at Maunsel. More

We have just returned from the stunning Maunsel house after our civil ceremony on 1st April 2013 and we had an amazing time. From the first time we viewed the venue to the moment we left married, we know we made the right choice for our special day. I don't really know where to start as the estate and house... More

Just spent an amazing weekend at Maunsel house. Staff could not have been more helpful, Liddy especially ( saviour of the speech) made it all look so effortless although that is clearly not what goes on behind the scenes!! The place was spotless at all times and there was always someone to answer questions! If I had a pound for... More

A visit to Maunsel is a unique experience. The house exudes, history, atmosphere and a welcoming spirit. Presided over by the gregarious presence of Sir Benjamin Slade you are housed in the most characterful rooms decked out with every luxury but still preserving a country-house charm. In winter fires roar from the grates and capacious arm-chairs and sofas envelope you... More

Stayed here on a lovely summers evening at a family wedding. The house and the grounds are lovely. All the rooms had wonderful views and were very quirky. Certainly well worth a visit. Staff very helpful indeed.

I was lucky enough to spend two nights here and had the most incredible time. The house could not be more comfortable as well as interesting as there are so many amazing things to look at and the grounds are beautiful to walk around. Also, what is incredible, is how a house of this size is so warm. Sir Benjamin... More
