Independent Worcestershire hotel celebrates decade of welcoming guests

Hogarths Stone Manor Hotel, a family-run independent hotel located in the heart of Worcestershire, is celebrating its 10th anniversary this spring. Over the past decade, the hotel has become a popular destination for travellers seeking comfort, quality, and personalised service in the picturesque Worcestershire countryside.

The Hogarths Stone Manor team celebrating a decade of success

Hogarths Stone Manor Hotel is under the ownership of Helena and Andy Hogarth who also run Hogarths Hotel & Restaurant in Dorridge, Solihull. Helena, who used to visit Stone Manor as a child, was keen to add the historic hotel to their brand when it came up for sale 10 years ago.

Since opening its doors in 2015 under the Hogarths brand, Hogarths Stone Manor has hosted countless guests, offering an inviting atmosphere that blends modern amenities with characterful architecture and within an independent, locally owned establishment. Its location near the M5 motorway makes it an ideal choice for visitors exploring Worcestershire or stopping en route to other parts of the UK.

Helena Hogarth, Director of Hogarths, added: "I remember my grandfather bringing me to the Stone Manor Hotel for tea when I was younger with my family and, when we discovered it was for sale, we knew this was the perfect hotel to complement Hogarths in Dorridge. I am so proud of all we have achieved over the past ten years; reestablishing ourselves within the local community and expanding our offering for weddings, conferences, restaurant bookings and spa treatments.”

Nestled amongst 30 acres of beautiful grounds, Hogarths Stone Manor boasts 56 luxury bedrooms, treatment rooms, and vast conference and banqueting suites including outdoor options ideal for summer BBQs or networking events. The restaurant favours locally sourced and seasonal flavours, with the aim to bring guests delicious food from the neighbouring three local counties of Worcestershire, Warwickshire and Herefordshire.

Adam Bessant, General Manager at Hogarths Stone Manor, said: “The team prides itself on delivering exceptional service with a personal touch. Our motto is ‘make guests smile through genuine hospitality’ and celebrating ten years is a testament to our dedicated team and our wonderful guests who have made this journey so rewarding. The team welcomes guests like lifelong friends – many of whom are!”

Nestled amidst Worcestershire's stunning countryside, Hogarths Stone Manor is within easy reach of local attractions such as Worcester Cathedral, Clent Hills, the Severn Valley Railway or West Midlands Safari Park, creating the perfect base for leisure travellers. Business guests also benefit from its proximity to the M5, providing convenient access to regional hubs.
