考利莊園酒店(Cowley Manor Experimental)

這個設計非常漂亮，但同時又完全不切實際，因為地方太暗了，你無法在房間裡閱讀。鏡子旁邊沒有插頭。水壺必須插在房間的另一邊。這是風格戰勝實質的勝利。工作人員很棒，庭院也很漂亮。晚餐的食物很好，早餐的食物很普通。如果他們檢查照明和電路就完美了——工作人員說這是一個常見的投訴，所以需要分類。誰用鏡子/電視佈置搞亂了對稱性，請再想一想！

I was excited to go back after the refurbishment, having had a great time previously. We had to wait for the girl on the spa reception to finish her chat before acknowledging us. We were given some forms and told to take a seat. The spa was filled with children who were running riots. We were told when booking the arrival drink was tea or coffee, so we ordered a coffee and was told the coffee machine was broken so could only have herbal tea. So we were not off to a good start. Then off to get changed where the girl said there would be towels and flip flops already in the locker. Only one of us had a locker with this in. So we had to interrupt the receptionists chat to get those. The facilities have not been refurbished, and the steam room smelt so bad we couldn't bear to use it. Indoor pool is lovely, but it needs a bit of music or something. Cups and mugs and towels were left throughout the whole morning. Trea**ents we had booked for the same time as per my confirmation. We sat waiting, two of my friends went through, and I sat there, so I asked and was told my trea**ent was 30 minutes later. I queried this, and she said the manager had moved it some time ago. There was an apology that I hadn't been informed but added to the already there frustration. The trea**ent itself was amazing, my therapist really listened to what I wanted and delivered(sorry I forgot your name, brown hair and glasses, but you really do deserve credit) in fact, all of us were blown away by the trea**ents. Although, you can hear absolutely everything from the trea**ent room. could hear the same girl from the desk, noise from the gym and every time someone opened the changing room. As this was a treat for a friend we did not make a fuss, we paid and went for lunch earlier than planned. We went through to the hotel, where the receptionist was busy looking at her mobile over helping us. We made our own way to the restaurant. I did absolutely love the decor in the main hotel and that felt as though it really transformed. Lunch was great, service was excellent. We didn't get any names, but everyone who served us was fabulous. Things were on the look up! We decided to stay in the bar and lounge area for our coffee, finally! We really eally enjoyed the a**osphere up there. Overall, I wouldn't go back to the spa, the expierience of the spa itself wasn't relaxing or luxury. I can't wait to go back for lunch.

Like location, quirky decoration and ambience. But a number of serious problems for expensive accommodation. First shown to room overlooking building site and had to make a request for change which was grudging. Second room more spacious. Steps to shower slippery and dangerous especially for older or infirm visitors. Hotel common areas spacious. But lighting after dark makes it impossible to read. When asked if lights could be turned up bar tender said manager would reprimand him if it was done! Light in room also poor for reading or writing. Breakfast excellent although long delays in delivery of hot food. Evening menu innovative but no variety of choice over three days. Slow dessert service but charge was waived without request. Spa enjoyable especially heated outdoor pool in inclement weather. Spoilt by cramped changing room and mucky shower area far to small and lacked privacy and luxury. Pool area used by outside members so filled with children for chunks of day. Guests should be prepared. Wouldn't recommend this to friends or colleagues.

'Experimental' sums it up nicely!!! Having visited nearly 20 years ago I was expecting a nice surprise...oh dear, sadly not! I sincerely hope that what has been done is and experiment because the transformation is unforgivable. The integrity of this outstanding building has been compromised with a tacky (dare I say trendy) interior scheme. Management must have been drugged before they accepted the design pitch? Visiting last the evening meant the light levels in the bar were so low is was like bing in a dimly lit cave. I could go on – but fortunately I do have a life. Good luck for the future....you'll need it!

Very sick 🤒 for 2 days after eating the oysters at Cowley manor and very disappointed by the furnishings….this place needs to add some a**osphere and flowers to match the wonderful surroundings and rooms…will never eat there again…so sick 🤢

我丈夫預訂了考利莊園作為生日禮物，遺憾的是它沒有達到預期。最初我丈夫透過電話詢問，只是被告知透過網站預訂。鑑於這是一個特殊的場合，他希望組織一些額外的細節和水療護理，但在我們到達或在線時再次被告知要這樣做。當我們到達的那天，我們的房間還沒有準備好，並被告知在最後的工作完成時坐下來。沒有人來找我們帶我們去房間，我們不得不檢查進度並再次訪問接待處。當我們最終進入我們的房間時，我們立即註意到一股相當難聞的氣味。窗戶一直開著，以幫助掩蓋這一點，並且在我們整個住宿期間都保持開啟。我們被承諾在我們訪問水療中心時會處理這個問題，但當我們回來時，它仍然非常明顯。我們再次聯繫了接待處，雖然他們承認存在問題，但沒有立即提出換房間的建議，我們只是被告知客房服務人員會再次來訪。他們這樣做了，並噴了一些房間噴霧劑，持續了一個小時左右。最後，晚上 10 點，我們被安排到了另一個房間，但此時我們已經上床睡覺了。合成室內噴霧劑和難聞的氣味結合，根本無法讓你睡個好覺。水療中心很吵，工作人員在後廚房閒逛，整體體驗缺乏您所希望的優雅和細心的工作人員。當我們第二天退房時，雖然我們承認房間裡有難聞的氣味，但這個問題並未反映在我們的帳單中。非常失望，遺憾的是不會再回來了。

This was our first visit since the change in ownership. Really enjoyed our stay and had a lovely room and breakfast. Couldn't be tempted by the menu for lunch and dinner though - apart from the scones. Fortunately there were lovely options (The Green Dragon and Knead) nearby which we felt were more us and better value. Please sort out your menu, Cowley Manor!

We were married here in the adjoining Church two years ago with the reception at the Manor, and we have now begun to return for anniversaries. There has been a complete refurbishment and the room we were in was superbly decorated. It was a lovely touch when Emma, our brilliant wedding organiser, made a point of meeting us personally and showing us to the room. It is always the people who make the real difference, even though the the building and grounds are already amazing; as well as Emma, we were beautifully hosted in the restaurant by Tatiana and Amy (both pitch perfect), and in the bar by Nora who remembered us despite the thousands of faces who must have passed through. I’m sorry that I didn’t catch more of the names of a thoroughly excellent staff. We will be back next year - and before if we can manage it.
