Classic British Hotels is delighted to announce the addition of The Mount Country Manor Hotel & Golf to its curated collection of quality, independent hotels across the UK. Located in the picturesque rural outskirts of Tettenhall Wood, Wolverhampton, this historic 4-star property perfectly embodies the collection’s commitment to unique character, rich heritage, and outstanding service.
Originally built in 1865, this Grade II listed Victorian manor house sits within four acres of meticulously manicured gardens and ornamental woodland, offering breathtaking views reaching toward the Shropshire countryside. Family-owned and proudly independent, The Mount seamlessly blends old world Edwardian charm with contemporary luxury.
Conveniently located just five minutes from Wolverhampton city centre, the hotel offers easy access to major transport links, including the M54 and M6 motorways. This makes it an ideal base for both leisure guests exploring local heritage landmarks – such as Wightwick Manor, the Black Country Living Museum, and Dudley Zoo – and corporate travellers requiring seamless connectivity.
The property features 67 stylishly appointed bedrooms and suites, including a premium serviced apartment located in a beautifully converted stable courtyard. Beyond its exceptional accommodation, the property boasts the award-winning Drawing Room Bar and Grill, celebrated for serving exquisite British cuisine made from locally sourced, quality ingredients.
Crucially, the partnership significantly strengthens Classic British Hotels’ Meetings & Events offering in the region. The Mount provides an impressive array of elegant, naturally lit meeting and function spaces designed to inspire. Accommodating up to 180 delegates, the hotel caters to everything from confidential client pitches to large scale corporate galas, all supported by cutting edge technology including ultra-fast 1GB WiFi and the latest AV infrastructure.
Guests can also enjoy the hotel’s nearby offsite facility, The Mount Golf & Country Club. Located just a short drive away, the complex features a premier 18-hole parkland golf course and a brand new Padel Club. This state-of-the-art facility boasts four floodlit, panoramic padel courts, a fitness gym, new saunas, and vibrant social spaces, offering the perfect blend of sport and relaxation.
“Joining Classic British Hotels marks an exciting new chapter for us,” said Sarah Swain, General Manager at The Mount Country Manor Hotel & Golf. “As a proudly independent hotel, we have always focused on delivering an authentic, top-quality experience rooted in our rich history. Partnering with a brand that shares our passion for individuality and hospitality excellence will allow us to showcase our fantastic dining, premier corporate facilities, and stunning grounds to a much wider audience.”
Phillip Allsopp, Managing Director for Classic British Hotels, added: “We are absolutely thrilled to welcome The Mount Country Manor Hotel & Golf into the Classic British Hotels family.
