the hotel, while not the most updated, was nice, well run, and on beautiful grounds. No AC or elevators, but accommodating staff and nice restaurant and bar options. there were two proms on the property back to back which we did not get a heads up about… it made parking very difficult which was not ideal after coming back from a day trip.

Food needs more care

Good selection of food for breakfast, would have been even better if it was hot, instead of just warm. In all probability I will not return

No chicken, no charge

Evening meal a little disappointing. Missing chicken from a chicken dish. The cook forgot to put it on the plate. Staff most embarrassed

Great place! Would definitely go again. Overall, could do with a deeper clean in the room, but the bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom was nice, enjoyed having a bath! Wish I'd known in advance there was no lift though, as it was a struggle with such a large suitcase lol.

We were very happy with the hotel For us the only negative was the hard bed. Unfortunately that means we are unlikely to stay there again

Nightmare at Bowden

The rooms allocated were on the top floor. There is no lift and we are both in our 70s and disabled. The staff changed the rooms, but one was over the kitchen, and the other next to what appeared to be a 747 jet testing area. I had to ask to be moved again in the middle of the night.
