博伍德SPA和高爾夫度​​假酒店(Bowood Hotel, Spa, and Golf Resort)

My daughter held her wedding at Bowood in June, been in the planning for two years. From day one Bowood staff have been excellent - from booking to actual wedding day - there are not enough stars to rate them with! The afternoon before (our arrival day) we encountered some unexpected personal challenges which would effect the wedding day. The hotel management and staff sprang into action without fuss - they were all truly brilliant, and we as a family can't thank or praise them all enough. We expected the wedding to be excellent, they have a super reputation and location for it, but what differentiates you, is when a difficult situation arises and how you deal with it - Bowood just managed it without fuss or bother. Again, we can't thank Bowood, its management and staff enough - with a special thank you to Rebecca (wedding day host manager), who is a truly amazing and genuine person and Pim (Deputy General Manager). And not to mention the wonderful setting, grounds and hotel facilities that Bowood gives you.

My wife and I had the pleasure of an overnight stay, dinner, bed and breakfast on a recent Sunday night in June. Initial impressions were great as we drove through the main estate entrance and dropped off luggage close to Reception. All the staff we met were very friendly and professional. Our room was superbly presented, very clean and well stocked with useful items in both the bedroom and bathroom. The view from the window was excellent and we could see deer in the distance. The Shelburne Restaurant food experience was exceptional to the extent we had a word with the chefs at close of service to offer sincere feedback and compliments. Breakfast in the morning was well cooked and very satisfying. The atmosphere at Bowood was restful and conducive as we were totally relaxed. We concluded our stay with a visit to the beautiful Bowood House and Gardens which is well worth a visit. We aim to book the hotel again and all being well, stay longer and experience the Spa.

Stayed for one night and played one round of golf . Superb hotel and accommodation and the service is excellent , all staff are attentive and friendly . The restaurant is excellent providing very high quality restaurant food . The golf course is of high quality. You can visit Bowood house next door which is a lovely house in a magnificent setting All in all it was a lovely 2 days and while slightly expensive overall was really worth it Would recommend and certainly will come back

We had previously stayed at Bowood House for a New Year event and enjoyed it. This time a friend gave us a voucher for afternoon tea. We went just after the Coronation weekend. The tea was excellent, and we topped it up with a glass of bubbly each. Nice dining area overlooking the grounds and efficient service. My only gripe was the lack of clear directions in the joining information and conflicting post code . We followed our gps which took us via a rear entrance road that was closed.

Very comfortable hotel, outstanding food and the nicest, happiest team of staff we’ve experienced in a long time. Exceptional visit. And lovely spa treatments too. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to nearby Bowood House in its magnificent parkland gardens. We were there for just 24 hours but it was so relaxing and super pleasant it felt like two or three days.

My friend and I had a beautiful afternoon at Bowood Spa, made even better by one of the lovely ladies at the spa reception. There was a slight mix up when we arrived as there were two bookings with very similar names, but after chatting with the team it was easy to understand what had happened. The problem was sorted without fuss, and we enjoyed a lovely few hours in the spa, treatment rooms and in the suntrap courtyard. Just what the doctor ordered! Afternoon tea was served overlooking the golf course in the glorious sunshine, served with a glass of bubbles! Only downside is that it's only a half day experience and quite pricey for the size of the facilities.

Stunning hotel and grounds. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Thoroughly enjoyed my spa treatment and the food was excellent. I would definitely recommend and will be visiting again. Took a visit to Bowood House and Gardens whilst there, very beautiful.

I bought a mothers day voucher to use the spa and for an hour treatment for my mum, to say the spa is unappealing is an understatement. The reception area is so dull, there is no sense of luxury when you walk in which set the tone for the couple of hours we were there. It seems the lay out is poor because there were people walking through to get behind the reception area and back throughout our 5 minutes of filling in the forms. We had to ask for a coffee/water as it wasn't offered to us. We showed ourselves to the client room, we had to ask for towels/robes, and ask for directions to the spa. The pool has an outstanding view of the golf course but the sauna/shower area was dirty and I'm sure if I could see in the steam room that would probably be just as bad, thankfully it was too steamy to see anything. The changing rooms are so compact, I felt like we were all on top of eachother, with only 2 mirrors to get ready and 2 hair dryers, there was a long wait for us all to get ready. And the showers were of course dirty, rusty, unappealing and need completely redoing! As a saving grace, the treatments we both received (facial & pedicure) were good and the staff were really lovely. We tried to get into the restaurant but didnt fancy the menu, then noticed there were people having afternoon tea so asked if we could do the same which we were told no as it was pre-book only but we could have cream tea instead. Seems strange for finger sandwiches and cake to not be on offer so we decided to leave. Not worth the money spent, and would not return.

We booked for a night’s stay without ever having heard of this place before. Our golf club has reciprocal arrangements through the Lansdowne Club and we thought we’d give it a go. We’ve been to more upmarket resorts, both in terms of the standard of both the hotel and the golf course, but notwithstanding that, and may be because of it, our Bowood experience was faultless and entirely enjoyable. Thinking back, what made the experience such a relaxed one was the very positive attitude of every single staff we interacted with. Nothing was too much of a trouble. The pro shop staff, the valet, the young man serving at the club house bar, the restaurant and the front desk staff - all had very friendly no-fuss positive service mind. Other than that, the hotel room was excellent- and we appreciated the nicety of the home made cookies and milk in the fridge. The hotel food was great - we had three meals. And the golf course was 6.5/10 which is to say it’s good if you’d consider a Kingsbarn 10/10 by comparison.
