After having to leave The Hampshire Court hotel due to it's dangerous and filthy condition. I had to find a hotel at very short notice. Audleys Wood had availability at a higher price than I had paid at the pig pen, but if I had known how beautiful this hotel was and how fantastic the staff where I would be more than happy to have booked there first. My deepest thanks go to all the staff, from the night Porter to the hotel Manager that saved our weekend away.
United KingdomIt was hard to see how it could be improved, everything was excellent but breakfast was exceptional.
United KingdomLovely trees and woods around the hotel.Very friendly staff .
United KingdomThe staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was a lot bigger than imagined and had air conditioning, the bed was bigger than a double and had plenty of pillows. The room and bathroom were very clean. The restaurant was beautiful and the food was fantastic, the breakfast was really good, they have hot items made to order. Although they did add a service charge without notifying us when we had our evening meal there.
