The Mansion House is thought
to have been built as early as 1681, although its style is that
of the Queen Anne period (1702-1714). It's best known as the
birthplace of Sir Norman Angell, the Nobel Peace Prize Winner of
1933 who was born in the house in 1872. The Blue Plaque to the
right of the door celebrates this famous man.
Today this fine historic
building has been sympathetically restored to a high standard as
a modern hotel and restaurant (Angell's Restaurant). The hotel
offers a high standard of accommodation as well as being a
non-smoking environment, combining both the history of the
building with the best of modern technology including Internet
Access and Satellite Television.
The Hotel is
conveniently situated in the heart of Holbeach, a thriving town
with much history and fine architecture. It's also centrally
placed for visitors who want to explore the local area or have
business in the nearby centres of Spalding, Boston, Kings Lynn
or Peterborough all of which are no more than about 20 minutes
drive from here.
Inside this no-smoking
establishment you'll find a high standard of accommodation with
most of the tastefully decorated rooms en-suite. The rooms
feature stripped pine furniture coupled with wall mounted
televisions and direct phone lines.
Heritage colours have
been used throughout to ensure a harmonious fusion of history
and modern elegance.
In addition to offering
first class accommodation, the Hotel could provide a stunning
venue for a Wedding, Christening, Anniversary or special
celebratory event, especially with the new marquee that is
coming.
You are most welcome to
visit us and see what we can offer. We look forward to
looking after you and offering you a warm and friendly welcome.
Thank you for your visit. |
