The historic charm of Moonraker

Set in a historic manor house on the outskirts of Trowbridge, Wiltshire and just minutes from the picturesque market town of Bradford on Avon, the Moonraker Hotel invites you to experience authentic charm in a truly historic setting.

THE HISTORY OF

The Moonraker

Moonraker Hotel is not only rich in charm and character, it is steeped in centuries of remarkable history. First recorded in the Domesday Book as part of the Abbess of Glastonbury’s estate, the manor was originally built in the elegant Queen Anne style and later enhanced with beautiful Bath stone during the 17th century. Once known as The Old Manor Hotel, it was later renamed The Moonraker Hotel, carrying forward its legacy with a fresh identity.

Today, this storied past blends seamlessly with contemporary comforts to create a truly exceptional setting for memorable stays, relaxed dining, and life’s most cherished occasions. Whether you’re celebrating a wedding, a milestone, or simply taking time to unwind, The Moonraker Hotel offers a timeless backdrop where memories are made to last a lifetime.
