Northcote Manor

We had a fabulous night's stay with the spa mini break deal for my husband's 50th. The location is stunning, the treatments divine and dinner was delicious. All the staff were fantastic, especially Abbey who looked after us from arrival. Would highly recommend for a peaceful and fully relaxing break.

Fantastic night away for my partners birthday. From the moment we got there the staff made us feel welcome. The spa staff were amazing and we really enjoyed our treatments. Gourmet dinner with wine pairing was excellent. Special thank you to Simon, Dani and Amy for a very special night away.

We stayed here last week for a 2 night midweek break. Beautiful and peaceful location surrounded in 25 acres and amazing views from the spa pool. We used the spa pool both evenings which was very relaxing after a day out. The staff were very charming, friendly and professional. We had dinner both evenings which were delicious and the breakfast set us up for the day. Very comfy and clean room. We would definitely stay again.

The building is lovely, the grounds are extensive but could do with some work on flower beds. The public rooms are nicely decorated, with attractive glassware dotted about. Our room overlooked the garden which was nice however it was badly in need of an update and redecoration. The edging and tie backs on the curtains were in a very sorry state. The bathroom was clean but small, which would be acceptable if again it was updated.

The shower temperature was difficult to adjust as there is no thermostat. Breakfast was disappointing, my husband ordered the cheese and ham croissant and it was tiny, a mini croissant rather than normal size! I ordered toast which was very nice but I was surprised to only receive one slice. More was supplied on request. Dinner was acceptable but surprisingly lacking in flavour, the menu sounded better than what was actually served.

We ordered a cup of tea on arrival and the next day when we paid our bill we were a little surprised to see we had been charged for the 2 biscuits that came with it. All in all sadly l don't think we will be returning.

We really enjoyed our recent break at Northcote Manor. All the staff were welcoming, professional and friendly. The service was excellent, the food and wine wonderful. The spa facility is a great space with lovely views across the countryside and the treatments I had were super. I would have to say however that whilst we enjoyed the pool, the poolside temperature was rather hot and too uncomfortable for me to sit and read. Our room, Ashreigney, was small and comfortable but tired looking and would benefit from redecoration. We hope to return for another relaxing stay.

We dined here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We chose to have private dining in the Oak Room. From the moment we arrived we, and our four small dogs, could not have been made more welcome. This is hospitality and service defined and equal praise must also go the the excellence of the Chefs as the food was exquisite. Sadly, at more than six hours drive away, we will not be able to visit regularly but we will be back on our very next visit to Devon.

Such a wonderful break and lovely manor. Food was just delicious and all staff do friendly and helpful. Only thing I could complain about is the bed! Mattress totally had its day, really need a new one and different pillows.

Stunning. Me and my girlfriend stayed in Northcote Manor for just the night on the 3rd Jan, 22 for her birthday. Firstly, the 3pm check in (bit late for me personally) was a very warm welcome to an exquisite Manor House with a perfectly sized room, with a more contemporary decor to the photos on the website. Everything very clean and comfy. With full access to the spa, we took full advantage and saw night fall in a dreamy room with an 180 degree view of the gorgeous natural surroundings of North Devon.

We were the only two at one point which was lush. Dinner was an bizarre experience. The attendance of staff couldn't be faulted in the slightest - very friendly and helpful - however it was hard to be with only two couples in the dining room. There was awkward silence at times. My girlfriend found the food outstanding, I would agree if I had chosen the same as her I'm sure (Pork belly, Venison and souffle).

Would recommend booking in a busier time. We revisited the spa in the morning and checked out for 11am. Overall an amazing experience and will definitely be returning at some point. Thank you to all the amazing staff!

Me and my partner stayed here for one of their spa breaks. The stay was really relaxing and the food was delicious, our spa treatments were lovely and the spa facilities were very good. Would recommend if you want a relaxing break that has a lovely vibe and is run by lovely staff. Mitch and Abby were great!

Took an excellent 3 day winter break at Northcote Manor. Wonderful food, friendly, helpful and efficient staff, really comfortable and clean room, great spa and amazing views across the beautiful North Devon countryside. If you need a place to relax, recharge and be pampered, then this could be the place for you.
