Hartsfield Manor was recently awarded Surrey Business of Year at the recent SME Surrey Business Awards held at Epsom racecourse.

Hartsfield Manor is a stunning 19th Century manor house set back along a sweeping driveway amongst 16 acres of beautifully maintained grounds. Built originally as a family home, it was purchased by the current owners, Manor Collection, in 2016.

We were presented this award in recognition of the exceptional success the business has seen over 2022. Delivering over 90 weddings as well as running a busy hotel, meeting and events venue. Operations Director, Giles Thomas, declared that the entire team at Hartsfield Manor will be thrilled with the recognition. Speaking just after collecting the award Giles said “The team at Hartsfield Manor have worked incredibly hard over the past 12 months. Their vision for growth, their team spirit, how they’ve worked together to deliver exceptional service for our guests and clients each and every day has been a pleasure to work with. Recognition through this award is a testament to how their drive ensures Hartsfield Manor is the fabulous venue that it is.”

On Thursday 23rd June we were fortunate enough to play host to local charity, Stripey Stork’s, annual quiz night. We say annual, of course, but the past 2 years have seen the evening cancelled due to the emergence of Covid-19 and the rather large matter of an international pandemic. Nevertheless, the 2 year hiatus only helped build the excitement as we welcomed the team back again.

Exactly 100 guests took their seats for the quiz, dressed top to tail in stripes to support the charity’s annual campaign, Stripes 4 Stripey. Made up of supporters, volunteers and the team at Stripey Stork, the room was filled to the brim, creating a fantastic atmosphere. Questions on geography, British history, music, tv and more, challenged the teams through 8 separate rounds, ending with one team triumphant. The Belfry Brainiacs. Congratulations to them!

Regardless of who won, a huge thank you is needed not just to the winners but to everyone who came along, organised and helped raise an incredible £1600! Money that will be put to good use, supporting local families in Surrey. No doubt, the team at Stripey Stork will be back again next year.

Last week, Hartsfield Manor was delighted to have been awarded the Best Hotel in Surrey Award in the recent Muddy Stilettoes 2022 awards.
Now in their ninth year, the Muddy Stilettos Awards champion the very best lifestyle businesses across 28 counties, chosen by their discerning readers.

Giles Thomas, Operations Director for the Manor Collection hotel group said “These awards are not voted for by editors, mystery shoppers or selected influencers. Instead, they are chosen by Muddy Stilettos readers and hotel guests. This year 75,000 businesses were nominated across the country and 765,000 votes cast across the 28 Muddy counties. Making this year the biggest and best Muddy Awards to date. And we won one! Simply amazing.”

He went on to say “The hardwork each and every one of our team put in to ensuring our guests have the best experience possible has always been clear to us. But for our guests, people like yourselves, to take the time to vote for us, is simply amazing and we thank you so much for your support.”

 

Reigate Manor are delighted to announce that they have retained their 5 star food hygiene rating.

In December 2008 the Food Standards Agency agreed a National Food Hygiene Rating Scheme. It is now running in all areas of Wales, Northern Ireland and in 99% of England.

The food hygiene rating scheme is designed to ensure that businesses that are broadly compliant with food law and are managing food safety risks will receive a rating of three and those who are managing the risk well will receive a rating of four or five. However, significant lapses in any of the scoring criteria can also have a significant effect on the rating.

Receiving a 5 star rating is by no means easy. So we must give a huge well done to Head Chef Will and his team for all their hard work in achieving this rating. Congratulations!

 

We are delighted that Hartsfield Manor have been awarded a Hitched Ltd Wedding Award 2022.

Dear all,

On Monday we received the news that our entire industry has been waiting to hear since March 2020. The nearest thing to ‘normal’ conditions are returning as of Monday 19th July and many of the restrictions imposed over the past 15 months will be removed.

Therefore masks will no longer be required to walk around the hotel, although still advised in crowded spaces. Social distancing and the rule of 6 will no longer be enforced, meaning larger tables from unlimited households are now a possibility in our restaurant. You are now also welcome to grab drinks directly from the bar as we are no longer restricted to just table service. Something I know our food & beverage team will be thrilled about.

It has not escaped my attention, however, that many will be moving at different paces as we slowly return to ‘normal’. Therefore we ask that everyone continues to show the same care and respect to each other that we’ve seen from you all throughout the pandemic. We ourselves will be keeping the additional hand sanitiser stations and protective screens around all our hotels and giving our staff the choice as to whether or not they wish to wear a mask.

Without bringing the mood down, covid-19 is still very much among us. And although brighter skies are certainly ahead, we will continue to show caution and consideration to everyone no matter how they decide to move forward from the past year.

Thank you again for all your support and I look forward to seeing you back with us very soon.

Giles Thomas
Operations Director

 

We are delighted to say our Manor Suite at Reigate Manor has had a well-needed refurbishment.

Both rooms 401 and 415 have been cleared out and completely transformed this summer, with new wallpaper, mirrors, lighting and more. You will, however, still find our traditional 4 poster bed in room 401. Something I’m sure many will be delighted to hear.

Both rooms are now available to book directly through our website or over the phone.
