Mabie House was originally built in the 17th century and passed through several generations of local landed gentry, including the Keswick family. In the 1960's the Keswick family handed building over to the local Forestry Commission, who utilised it's forest location to provide hostel accommodation for workers within the forest and nearby sawmill.

We spent two nights at Mabie House and found the welcome most warm, almost like friends. The staff were all courteous and friendly, going out of their way to engage with guests. It was obvious that there were a large proportion of the guests and been there before which is always a good sign. The food was excellent and fresh. Highly recommended!

I'm staying local in a farmhouse, I came here after a walk with my baby, dog and partner. We asked if we could eat outside and they brought everything out. The staff are lovely and friendly and the food was really good quality. I would come here again!

Absolutely beautiful place. We stopped for a quick lunch and a play in the playground. We had super tasty vegan fishcakes and chips. So good. A few of us went on one of the dog walks. Also the inside is super fancy and the staff are really friendly. Nice!

This is a great find. Everything you expect a real country house hotel to be. Fabulous quirky Edwardian interior, crowned by an equally quirky parrot by the name of Basil! Large, comfortable room, good food and, most importantly, excellent friendly staff. Very pet friendly. Looking forward to our next visit.

Stopped on a cycle on one of the hottest days of the year! Sat in the garden for drinks and a bowl of chips. Lovely setting. The inside restaurant area looks quite posh - might have to come back to try it when we're not scruffy cyclists!
