Country house hotels in the UK
Manors, halls and abbeys. Historic, but not castles.
These are historic houses, not castles. We list 697 manors, halls, abbeys, priories and country houses across the UK that take overnight guests, most of them hotels.
Each one carries level 1 on our Castle Authenticity Scale: historic, but not a castle. We keep them on a separate list so that a Georgian manor is never sold to you as a castle, and so that you can find one when a country house is exactly what you want.
England has most of them. For the castle version of the same trip, see castle hotels in the UK.

Questions
What is the difference between a country house hotel and a castle hotel?
A castle hotel is in a building built as a castle, or built to look like one. A country house hotel is in a manor, hall or mansion that was a family home on a country estate, without towers or defences. Both can be historic; we rate castles on levels 2 to 5 and country houses on level 1.
