Amazing staff and service.

The staff and service can not be faulted here, everyone was so friendly and helpful and the place is beautiful with their 3 gardens and plenty of places to sit and enjoy the views. Restaurants served good food and they have 24 hour room service!

Ashdown Park,we decided,not for us. Bedrooms very dark,and extremely dated.With reproduction furniture. We had issues with the rooms we were allocated,due to first being too far away for my husband (he has knee problems),secondly a single room was given to us.Late evening we were given a suite in the leisure complex,which we appreciated,but in all honesty,so very dated. I have to say,the member of staff,who helped us to get a room change,was absolutely lovely,and went above and beyond,to help us,such a lovely guy. Breakfast was certainly not overwhelming,really didn’t like the idea of having to help yourself to a coffee in a mug ,from a rather cheap coffee dispenser,(I can do that in Waitrose for free). As a summary,beautiful views and grounds,dated ,dark accommodation.

My husband and I enjoyed everything about our stay at Ashdown Park Hotel. The team are super friendly, our room was lovely and very clean and luxurious. The grounds are well kept and a pleasure to stroll around. There are good fitness facilities, however we were there for a romantic trip. We had a lovely evening meal, but feel that there could have been more choice. The breakfast was delicious and well made. Thank you to the whole team for making our stay special.
