가봤던 호텔중에 최고에요! 스파 때문에 끌려서 갔다가, 그 외에 액티비티에 반해서 나왔습니다. 테니스랑 골프 포함해서 야외 수영 짱이에요

Lovely luxurious stay at the Grove. With a complimentary upgrade, we had the most amazing view of the formal gardens. Was lovely to look out at in the evening and morning! The facilities are lovely - all very clean and well stocked. So many activities- we were never left with nothing to do and we enjoyed doing them all! Fun filled weekend. The facilities for children are also amazing- always activities lined up for children and the children’s pool was lovely and warm - we enjoyed a whole hour of uninterrupted fun in the pool. The crown jewel in this place for us had to be the Turkish restaurant skewd in the walled garden- the food and service was amazing. 10/10!

Our stay at The Grove was truly memorable. The grounds are absolutely spectacular – perfect for long walks, relaxation, and simply resetting. The buffets and on-site restaurants were amazing, offering plenty of variety and top-quality dining. We were mainly there for Football Escapes, and despite the hotel being very busy, we were still well looked after. It is certainly an expensive place, but worth the experience for the level of service, the stunning property, and the overall atmosphere that balances luxury and relaxation. All in all, a wonderful stay, and one we’d happily return to!

We visited The Grove for a birthday breakfast at the Stables. Not only did we have a wonderful breakfast seated on outside on the terrace but the service was amazing. I can’t thank Edyta enough for making it such a great experience. You are a star..!
