If you like to maintain your independence as a traveler and feel like a local while having many of the comforts a hotel can provide--without the fishbowl experience of a hotel stay--look no further. The Small English Manor is a gem. It is a sanctuary, a place for repose, small quarters that will accommodate your every need. A kitchen equipped to make and clean up a meal? Check. Umbrellas for the unexpected rain storm? Check. Extra towels, bedding, coffee filters, ground coffee, tea, sugar, salt & pepper in the pantry? Check. Check. Check. Check.
My husband and I were in town for our daughter's college graduation. This meant a busy few days. We were grateful for the quiet, green, tree-filled courtyard and the experience of living in a home away from home where we could rest and eat on our own schedule.
Emma is a wonderful host: responsive, conscientious, organized. We will definitely stay here again.
