I don't have the book here to quote from, but in CoS, when Harry is hiding in the shop 
in Knockturn Alley and overhears Lucius Malfoy trying to sell his poisons lest the 
Ministry finds them, Malfoy tells Boggins he expects him to pick them up at the 
manor the next day.
However, after Lucius has left, Boggins uses the word manor in a sarcastic way, as if 
he's implying it isn't really that great a house ....
