The tiles in the shower in are room need a good bleach and the outdoor chairs and table needed a clean. Food lovely and the surrounding area beautiful

    Unfortunately over the past few years it’s much more corporate and less customer focused, only wanted to please the DAY guests which was sad as residents we are now only allowed to the spa either early in the morning or evenings, and unfortunately the breakfast service wasn’t good at all just one member of staff literally running around apologising to most tables, forgetting orders menus food?? Just DISAPPOINTED as this was somewhere we came for a special night away

    We have stayed at this hotel for over 17years, it’s a huge part of our lives We had seen a friendly face (James) who was the porter and now reception manager which was lovely

    The room we had needs some basic refurbishment: cracks in the plastering, the bath - despite being clean - has a sediment that probably won't go anywhere unless replaced, some bits and bops being "classy" or in ruins, depending on your taste.

    The manor is quite stylilsh, in a secluded place and far away from the buzz. The gardens look nice and they have all things you might need at spot: bar, restaurant, and spa.

    The Spa is disappointing. It is tired and run down. The pools were cold including the therapy pool that I would expect to have some heat. The hot tub was broken. Areas of the spa were dirty and not well maintained. The restaurant food was delicious although expensive. There were very few choices when we dined as lots of the food had run out or finished. Some of the female waiting staff were abrupt and unfriendly. We were also served by a friendly, helpful and most polite man (Uno?). He redeemed the other service we received. The bar was a great place to enjoy a pre dinner drink. The cocktails are lovely and service, in there, was excellent.

    The House and Mews are stunning. Our room in the Mews was comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated. A wonderful place to stay with lovely grounds and a great view.

    Slightly disappointing

    The check in was chaotic, and two of our group's rooms had been given away. None of the beds were made into singles before we arrived. No one picks up the phone when you call reception. Our stay was unfortunately a little disappointing given the price tag and the look of the venue. They did offer a partial refund which we appreciated however when we went to check out this hadn't been applied.

    The staff were very accommodating (our waiter Chris especially) and the venue itself is stunning.

    The spa is very tied and small. This was a worse spa experience than other Champneys I visited. Some areas around the pool can really benefit from descaling. Since the spa is so small, they should time guests attendance.

    Their traditional building has a lot of character. The gardens are extensive and well maintained.

    A lot of small maintenance issues throughout pool area. Definitely needs attention so it does not get worse. Grouting of pools, walls in pool area, some metal work rusty. Some tiles broken. However for the price this did not detract from our stay. Facilities really good, lovely complimentary Elemis products to use.

    The bedroom was spacious, warm and was decorated really well. With a great modern bathroom with big walk in shower. There was a great view of the grounds from the window.
