What they say
“Utterly flawless as far as I could tell and whilst I'm not a nitpicker I do tend to spot the cracks and cobwebs - neither of which were to be found at Beaverbrook. The buildings are exquisite and the staff are more than helpful and completely charming, I'm just so glad to find this level of service still exists. Will absolutely be back 10/10 and one of the best hotel experiences of my life.”
“Wonderful stay and very well looked after by the staff. Beautiful grounds and the hotel itself is immaculate. Lots to keep the little guests entertained as well, treehouse playground and daily movies. Can’t wait to be back! The indoor pool and spa area were fantastic.”
“We love coming here, especially when there is an "occasion" on. We've been to cinema nights, balloon dining (several times) and this year's ice skaking. The grounds, buildings and views are spectacular and it has that real luxury retreat feel, I would highly recommend staying and the spa facilities are wonderful. However our last visit did not go as perfectly as we would hope. We were waiting over 45 mins for our food, this is after being told after we ordered that the starter from a very limited set menu is not available (which happens, I understand) to be then waiting 20 minutes for our main to arrive. My wife ordered a pie with a pastry top to then be served a shepherds style pie, we thought it was strange when asked if I could double check the menu (we could've ordered wrong) the staff then looked at us like we were complete idiots. It turns out there is a vegetarian shepherds pie on the main evening menu, on our menu it should be a pastry top. They took it back to the kitchen to then wait another 20 mins. My wife then had to eat it down extremely quickly, I ate half, so we could skate in what ever was left of the daylight. We missed the sunset unfortunately. We will try not to let this experience cloud our judgement of somewhere that we look forward to visiting every time we can, here's to another year of balloon dining I hope.”
“We had the best stay here. All the staff were amazing and seem to love their jobs. The attention to detail was excellent. It really was perfect. It felt very festive with the ice rink and beautiful Christmas decorations. It's dog friendly, too.”
“Wonderful Had lunch at the Garden House, food was delicious the cocktails were top notch. The staff were the best of the best so friendly, it was my Mum’s 80th birthday and they went out of their way to make it special. We were also given a guided tour round the house by a charming knowledgeable girl.”
