Oak Tree Hotels has sold the Stanton Manor hotel in Stanton Saint Quintin, near Chippenham, to an overseas investor from a guide price of £1.7m.
The 23-bedroom country house hotel dates back to 1840 and features a lounge bar, restaurant, function room and conference facilities.
Set within 48 acres of gardens and grounds, the property also holds a wedding license and accommodates up to 200 guests in an outdoor marquee. Smaller ceremonies can also take place in the 12th Century Church of St Giles, located near the hotel entrance.
Martin Rogers, head of UK hotel transactions at Savills, which represented Oak Tree, said: “This sale emphasises the high level of demand for country house hotels and wedding venues, with Stanton Manor generating significant interest from both domestic and overseas buyers.
“The regional hotel market in the UK is very strong and appetite for quality assets like this one is as high today as it has been for 10 years.”
