Lemore Estate is a luxury country hotel in Herefordshire (just a hop over the border from Worcs) offering ultimate modern comfort in a 17th-century manor house. With restorative spa, en-suite lodges, outdoor dining hubs, kitchen gardens and surrounding rural beauty, it’s the perfect retreat for weddings, bijoux corporate events, or romantic escapes for two. Each room is individually designed so that — although always stylish and luxe — each stay will be unique. Fancy something more than just a night in a beautiful hotel? Lemore also offer experiences to make your time there as engaging as possible, with potential excursions ranging from bread making to hang gliding.

Aside from the bespoke rooms and extracurricular activities on offer, the dining options are also designed to suit every mood and guest. Classically elegant bistro dining is available at The Coach House, while eating hearty alpine food at the Chalet is a buzzy and relaxed affair. Private dining in the Lakeview pods promises an unforgettable experience in itself.

The hotel’s eco creds have also been carefully considered. Lemore Manor’s heating and hot water is sustainably provided by ‘Puffing Billy’, their charmingly-named biomass wood chip boiler. Every couple married at the estate has a tree planted on the 11 acre-site in their honour, and produce for the menus are picked from their flourishing kitchen gardens. So, essentially: luxury comfort without a shred of guilt. When can we book?
