TROO Hospitality to manage Billesley Manor 

TROO Hospitality has been appointed to manage the four-star Billesley Manor Hotel and Spa, its second property in Stratford-upon-Avon. Set in 11 acres of woodland, the Grade II listed building features 71 bedrooms across the original manor house and the neighbouring Cedar Barns, which features a number of modern contemporary rooms. 

Other amenities include The Stuart Restaurant, which serves an a la carte menu, afternoon tea and sunday lunch, as well as a new health club and spa which is open seven days a week.

The venue has rich heritage within Stratford-Upon-Avon, hosting William Shakespeare in 1599 with the outcome being his comedy ‘As You Like It’. The decor in the hotel pays homage to this. 

The property, including its spa, has recently undergone a refurbishment following a round of investment by its current owners. 

Winston Zahra, CEO of TROO Hospitality, said: “We are incredibly proud to be working with the Billesley Manor owners and team on this stunning property. The building, with its rich history within Stratford-Upon-Avon, has recently been refurbished to a very high standard with more plans to further improve this impressive heritage site scheduled for the coming year. We are looking forward to working closely with the Billesley team and continuing to build on the great reputation of the property in the years ahead.”

Laura Cherrington, director of Sales and Marketing at Billesley Manor Hotel and Spa, added: “This appointment marks an exciting new chapter for us as we continue to enhance the guest experience at our historic venue. With TROO’s expertise and commitment to excellence, we are confident that together we will elevate the property’s reputation as a premier destination in the Stratford-upon-Avon region, offering visitors an unforgettable blend of heritage, luxury, and warm hospitality.” 

This new appointment marks TROO’s eighth management agreement, with a number of other hotels in the pipeline set to be announced in due course.
