This place is absolutely amazing! Whimsical fairytale architecture unsurpassed by anything I've ever seen (and I have travelled a lot!). The owners have somehow distilled the most magical beautiful parts of gothic and other architectures of a grand bygone era into one building that in my view beats out much more well known amazing architectural masterpieces of Frank Lloyd Wright and Frank Gehry. But this place is so much more than the incredible architecture. It has layer after layer of intricate history enshrined in the vast array of valuable living antiques that form a usable part of the live in rooms of this architectural gem. Ken and Nydia bring this all to life in real time. And the food, oh my word you will feel like pampered royalty. No Hungry Jacks for this boy! If you wish to treat yourself and your partner just once in your lifetime, make sure it's this place. Karl and Amanda

Thorngrove Manor is a beautiful and Magical place to stay. The architecture is magnificent. Antiques, furniture, fabrics, china and linen, all so beautiful. The food and the way it was presented. WOW. We stayed 2 nights in the Queens Chambers. Celebrated a special Birthday. We felt like Royalty. Treated like the King and Queen. We were treated so special. It is the most memorable experience, we will treasure forever. We will never ever forget. Thank you Ken and Nydia for your wonderful hospitality. Highly recommended. Love from Tina and Stephen Bobbin. Red Cliffs Victoria.

I chose Thorngrove as the place to propose to my partner and it was absolutely perfect. I've lived in the Hills most of my life and always wondered what a stay at Thorngrove would be like and it did not disappoint!
Ken's hospitality was amazing and the food Nydia served up was incredible. She was more than happy to cater to our vegetarian diets.
With the fire going in the castle chambers surrounded by beautiful antiques it was truly a romantic stay we will never forget.
