By James Russell: Lympstone Manor awarded 5 star AA rating

May 14, 2018

Lympstone Manor is delighted to announce it has achieved a prestigious five star rating from the respected hospitality association the AA.  The luxury hotel in Devon, created by Michael Caines MBE, one of Britain’s most celebrated chefs, is pleased to have received this accolade following its official opening just last year. Recommending hotels for over 100 years, the AA awarded Lympstone Manor during their most recent announcement.

Speaking about this achievement, Michael Caines said: “We are so proud to have received a five star AA rating at Lympstone Manor. Since opening the hotel in April last year the team has continued to work hard to offer every guest a fantastic experience so it’s great to see our offering reflected by this prestigious accolade. This is a huge achievement for us and we’re honoured to now hold five AA stars”.

Gary Baldwin, Senior Hotel and Restaurant Inspector and Area Manager commented: “Following a series of inspections to measure consistency and quality the AA have awarded five stars to Lympstone Manor. Lympstone is a very special place, with excellent levels of service from the close nit professional team, each bringing with them a wealth of experience from some of the UK’s finest hotels. Our inspectors were impressed with the physical quality of the property, a true hands-on vision from Michael, excellent attention to detail and quality noted throughout. This official star grading is only the beginning of the Lympstone journey, with exciting plans ahead to make this an even greater destination.”

Opening to critical acclaim in 2017, Lympstone Manor continues to be one of the UK’s most exciting country house hotels. Each element of its offering is created with the highest standards in mind, from its delicious Michelin starred food and stylish interiors to its glorious location, set in 28 acres of Devon countryside with unrivalled views of the Exe Estuary. The team continues to develop the hotel with new initiatives to further enhance the five star guest experience, including planting a vineyard in the grounds and launching a bespoke Adventure Concierge for guests to take advantage of during their stay.
