    The feeling this was a family home with generations of history. The host was an amazing cook and I really enjoyed getting to talk with her about the property, family history and their adjacent farm.

Overtown Manor was originally built in 1693 & the new Victorian part was built in 1879. The Manor is part of a working farm, in the countryside but 2 miles from Swindon and 4 miles from the M4.
I am the fourth generation to live at Overtown Manor and we opened in 2010. We are a bed and breakfast and meeting venue and I have 25 years of catering experience. I love to cook locally sourced food from the farm and garden when possible.
Overtown is a little hamlet 1/4 mile up a hill from the village of Wroughton and 2 miles from the town of Swindon. Whilst close to the modern facilties guests need, Overtown is an oasis of rural calm.
