Chestfield Manor is mentioned in the Domesday Book as a gift of William the Conqueror to his halfbrother Bishop Odo. It lies on the route taken by pilgrims to the shrine of Thomas d Beckett and was known even then as a place of rest and hospitality. In that respect, little has changed to this day. The present building dates from the 15th century and has been carefully and lovingly restored to provide an attractive beamed lounge bar, a small but cosy spike bar and a restaurant overlooking the 18th green and fairway.
