The Manor Hotel is a Victorian hotel in the seaside town of Mundesley-on-sea in the county of Norfolk, United Kingdom.[1] It lies on the beachfront of Mundesley, north of Gold Park and just east of the Methodist Church. The hotel was designed by the Norwich architect John Bond Pearce[2] and was inaugurated in 1900.[3] It was the second major hotel to be established in the town, after the Hotel Continental, which was built in 1892.[3]
In April 2012, the hotel was put back on the market for sale,[4] just a month after it was repossessed by its owner Terry Burch.[5] Burch put the hotel up for sale for £845,000 after he had reached his initial turnover for the 4 years of owning the premises.[6] In doing so he cancelled five weddings which had been organized at the hotel.[7]
It is an ornate Victorian building which sits atop the Mundesley cliffs with a sea view. The hotel was originally a manor house, later converted into a hotel.[8] It has a six-bay front, with four-centred arches, and a hipped roof with four polygonal shafts.[8] The rooms of the red-brick edifice were "recently updated" as of 2012.[9] The hotel had a reported 25 rooms in 1982,[10] but now has 30 rooms.
