Description:
From: £55.00 Steeped in history and dating back to the 11th century, Weston Manor is a beautiful and unusual venue for a conference or a meeting. The present Baronial Hall was the bailiffs court for the Abbott of Osney who owned the house before the dissolution of the monasteries by King Henry V111 in the 16th century.Subsequently the great land owning families, the Earls of Abingdon and Berkshire - the Norreys and Berties resided at Weston Manor until the death of the last heir during the great war in 1917 Renovated during the twenties and thirties by several families, Weston Manor was occupied during the second world war when it was used by the BBC as a dormitory for their staff.The building was converted into a hotel in the late 1940s, and bought by its present owners, the Osborn family in 1983. Mr and Mrs Osborn pride themselves on the care and effort they have made to sympathetically restore the building and its grounds Accommodation Rating: 3* (about ratings) Facilities
