Space to feel inspired…

Beautiful spaces, exceptional , and a stay that feels effortlessly yours.

Welcome to Almer Manor

Tucked away in the heart of the Dorset countryside, we offer a private country escape designed for beautifully unhurried stays. Our characterful 16th-century Manor House, alongside the elegant Stable Cottage, gives you the space, comfort and privacy to properly switch off — whether you are planning a long weekend with friends, a family celebration or a restorative countryside retreat.

Set within peaceful grounds and surrounded by rolling Dorset landscapes, your days can be spent on the tennis court, wandering the gardens, unwinding in the sauna or embracing the cold in the ice bath, before gathering for slow dinners and relaxed evenings at home. With eight bedrooms in the Manor House and further accommodation in the Stable Cottage, we offer a rare kind of luxury: a place that feels completely yours, with experiences and space you simply will not find in a hotel.

Just a short drive from Poole, Sandbanks and the Jurassic Coast, Almer Manor is your secluded Dorset escape.
