South west events company PM Hospitality is continuing to invest in its Exeter venue Rockbeare Manor, with the creation of a new bedroom suite, meaning the exclusive venue now sleeps up to 30 guests.
The Grade I listed Georgian manor house, located just outside Exeter, has played host to many weddings and events since it was refurbished in 2016. This is the 13th bedroom suite to be created at the prestigious venue.
