Inglewood Manor

What Inglewood Manor does

Inglewood Manor is a Grade II listed Edwardian country house hotel and events venue located on the Wirral Peninsula in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire, United Kingdom. The property comprises 29 individually styled en-suite bedrooms, 5 meeting rooms (including the Burton Suite), and is set within 38 acres of landscaped gardens. The venue generates revenue from four primary streams: hotel accommodation (booked via the Guestline platform and direct website), wedding services accommodating 10 to 150 guests with popular and bespoke packages, food and beverage operations (restaurant, lounge, private dining, afternoon tea, ticketed events), and corporate meetings and events with day and 24-hour delegate packages. Ancillary revenue comes from gift vouchers, special occasion hosting, and seasonal Christmas events.

The company operates a conventional hospitality technology stack centred on the Guestline booking engine, a proprietary Boutique Hotel Group mobile app (iOS and Android) that integrates bookings across all three group properties, Google Analytics, and SSL-encrypted payment processing. The venue's go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, driven by its own website, the BHG app, social media presence (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest), email newsletter, and high-touch offline channels including wedding showrounds and open days. Customer segments are distributed across wedding couples, leisure guests, corporate event buyers, and special occasion celebrators, with no dominant enterprise anchor.

In June 2004 Inglewood Manor opened to the public as a country house hotel. In 2024 it was acquired by the Boutique Hotel Group (BHG), a hospitality group owned by the Naylor Family that also operates Peckforton Castle and Nunsmere Hall. The legal entity is Inglewood Manor Limited (Company No. 04976562), a private limited company domiciled in England. Headcount is reported as 11-50 employees. The Naylor Family has integrated the venue into a shared three-property group infrastructure, including a unified brand, app, and cross-venue gift voucher programme, while local supplier partnerships (Malpass Farm Butchers, Peckforton Dairy Farm, Bramble & Bloom, Lost Barn Coffee, Leaf Heswall) support F&B differentiation.

Broad incumbents

• Exclusive Collection: UK group of luxury country house venues with strong wedding, event, and hotel offerings. Operates as a multi-property portfolio but competes in the same premium wedding and corporate market as Inglewood.
• Champneys: Well-known UK spa and wellness hotel group with country house properties, dining, and event spaces. Broader incumbent with overlap on leisure breaks and event hosting, though more spa-led and less wedding-led than Inglewood.
• Hand Picked Hotels: Established UK collection of country house hotels offering rooms, weddings, dining, and meetings. Larger and more diversified portfolio, but overlaps with Inglewood on customer base and venue-led wedding proposition.

Direct peers

• Peckforton Castle: Sister property under Boutique Hotel Group, also a Cheshire country house wedding and events venue. Closely comparable in business model, target customer (wedding couples, corporate), and group-level operating platform, making it the most directly relevant peer.
• Carden Park Hotel: Large Cheshire country estate hotel with extensive gardens, multiple restaurants, golf, and significant wedding and conference business. Comparable scale, regional focus, and breadth of revenue streams (rooms, weddings, F&B, MICE).
• Storrs Hall Hotel: Lake District country house hotel with individually styled rooms, weddings, dining, and corporate events. Closely comparable mix of weddings, leisure stays, and F&B on a historic estate.
• Nunsmere Hall: Third venue in the BHG portfolio, a country house hotel in Cheshire that hosts weddings, corporate events, and dining. Operates under the same parent, app, and marketing umbrella, making it a near-perfect functional and structural peer to Inglewood Manor.
• Rookery Hall Hotel & Spa: Cheshire country house hotel and wedding venue with comparable room count and similar wedding, F&B and corporate event offering. Directly competes with Inglewood for the same Northwest wedding and corporate market.
• Bovey Castle: Edwardian country house hotel in Devon with extensive grounds, individually styled rooms, weddings, fine dining, and corporate events. Directly comparable operating model to Inglewood Manor.
