My husband and I attended our Son's wedding here and everything was perfect in every way. The marquee was fantastic serviced by an outside bar and the grounds were very well kept with great photo opportunities all around the hotel. The staff were all very friendly and attentive and would definitely recommend as a wedding venue. We also loved the historic, atmospheric King bedroom and the breakfast was also very good.

Was eine tolle Unterkunft. Es war so schön und wir haben selten so tolles und zuvorkommendes Personal gehabt. Da ich mich nicht entscheiden konnte welches Bier ich nehme, hat man mir angeboten 3 Biere zu testen, was für ein herausragender Service! Da wir sehr früh los mussten, hat man uns Sandwiches zum Frühstück bereit gestellt. Danke 🙏 was ein tolles Hotel! Absolut empfehlenswert für den

Looks like a beautiful place but all is not as it seems. It is the little things that make a difference. The evening meal was delicious and very well presented but the same chef was clearly not on hand for breakfast. The scrambled egg was over cooked and had been kept warm for a while as was the bacon. Beware! No toiletries are provided except liquid soap which we found out to our cost but you could buy shampoo in reception. The shower was totally inadequate, providing just a dribble although I was not surprised as the water flow in the basin mirrored this. I can only imagine how long it might take to run a bath. The room was a bit tatty and came with the cheapest possible doors which were made of chipboard covered in peeling fablon(or similar). The pillows felt like they were stuffed with cement. The room was unbearably warm even though the radiator was switched off. Climate control has clearly not reached this hotel. If you were interested in listening to other guests then this is the place for you because the bedroom walls offered little respite. The staff, however, were wonderful and a pleasure to meet.

Beautiful hotel, fabulous venue, rooms emacultate and comfortable. We organised an event in the marquee, perfect place for a wedding/event Kevin and Muriel are so accommodating and helpful. Staff are so friendly and cannot do enough for you. I would definitely recommend Howfield Manor and will be returning again.

We have stayed here before and had an amazing time but this time we were not so impressed. Room was plenty big enough and we liked the decor but the mattress was way too soft and with no support on the sides, it was like the cheapest sort you would never buy. Bathroom, zero water pressure to have a shower, it was that bad that when you took it off the wall and held it up the water just trickled down your arm. Food wise, the food in the evening was very good, no complaints there. The breakfast was mediocre at best and the continental side just went and they don’t seem to replace. If you’re early then ok but after 9am and you will struggle. Bar wise, soft drinks are out of a bottle so are pretty much flat, the beer comes out looking like Mr Whippy and when we were there they couldn’t figure out how to make the simplest of drinks, that was when someone was behind the bar. Shame really as we all said this hotel could be and should be knockout amazing but it wasn’t. Not sure if it has changed hands but there wasn’t the service that was there before. Probably won’t stay again.

My experience of howfield manor was just plain awful. I wanted to celebrate valentines and thought this place to be fantastic how wrong I was. I had booked a room and had also previously emailed to ask if I could order from main menu and if they did room service, I had confirmation that I could do both. Upon arrival I was told I couldn't order from main menu or have room service until 8pm. A bit late but we said we would look at menu and return. We went to our room and this was a small double there was a small desk so I asked did they bring a table we could eat at. I was told No. The manager asked what the issue was and we told him. He replied look at the menu decide what you want and I will ask if the chef can cook these for you. We went down at 5.40 to see if the chef would cook our choices or if we would have to eat out. We were told sit sit I tried to ask if the chef was prepared to cook our choices and the manager said yes he would sit her. Again I tried to say I'm not dressed or changed he said not to worry sit here. Here turned out to not even be in the restaurant. We were placed where the breakfast was set up was our romantic meal turned into a rushed affair that saw us back in our room by 7. The following morning at breakfast the food was lovely however when we went to get a pastry to eat with our coffee there was only one left, I asked the waiter for more and was told there may be a wait however he then informed us there would be no more pastries this was at 9 am. We left!!! We spent £200 to experience unyielding staff, a very hot room (couldn't open window as smoking area below) and inadequate breakfast a poor show by all and won't be returning.

A pleasant stay. The staff were friendly, polite and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was in need of some refurbishment and the shower was poor. However, Howfield Manor is a beautiful building and even in December the grounds were lovely. I would like to stay there again.
