“Check in and check out were very good. The grounds are superbly maintained - one can see deer in the early hours of the morning. The restaurant and breakfast were well run and food was good. The hotel is dog friendly! The room was clean- but unfortunately the "small double" was quite on the smaller side. Next time, we will book a larger room”
“We had our wedding in Highfield Park last July and we can’t praise them enough. Charlene was very helpful, professional and efficient. She made it stress free for us during the preparation and on our special day. All our guests were very happy with the venue. I would recommend it to anyone who is planning their wedding.”
“A charming well run hotel in 35 acres of grounds. We enjoyed our 2 night stay in one of their accessible rooms, ours being located in Wellington Lodge. This is a short distance from the main hotel. Our stay coincided with a heatwave, so we were especially thankful the block has air-conditioning! The room is clean, not cluttered, so easy to navigate with a wheelchair. There is a wet room, with support rails, sturdy seat under the shower, and emergency pull cord. The buffet breakfasts are amazing. (Please try the sausages). We ate in the bar one evening, and the food was excellent there too. It is located within easy reach of several tourist attractions. (Stratfield Saye House, Wellington Country Park, Milestones Museum, The Vyne, amongst others). Can highly recommend both the hotel and the wonderful staff. Thank you for making our stay memorable.”
“Beautiful venue especially around Christmas time and was Beautiful seeing the deer so close to the hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful.”
“Beautiful venue, staff were incredible. Run was very small with nowhere to put a bag without tripping over. Room was also very dated and in need of a refresh”
