Ardencote Manor is a hotel and former manor house located 0.5 miles (0.8 km) north of the village of Claverdon, Warwickshire, England.

The manor was originally built in 1863 as a dowry house for Mary Phillips, the daughter of a Manchester based wool merchant Thomas.{{Cite web |title=Places of interest in Claverdon |url=https://www.routeyou.com/en-gb/location/pois/47304941/claverdon |access-date=2023-04-27 |website=RouteYou |language=en}} The property passed through several owners until it was purchased in 1980 by a consortium with the idea of turning it into a hotel and country club. After several defaulted attempts the current owner, a Mr Huckerby, took it over in 1996 and finally got the project off the ground.{{Cite web |last=Gardens (en) |first=Parks and |title=Ardencote - Claverdon |url=https://www.parksandgardens.org/places/ardencote |access-date=2023-04-27 |website=Parks & Gardens |language=en}}
