“We recently stayed with you over the Coronation weekend, and I wanted to extend our thanks for yet another fantastic experience at Bowood, and one that will be truly hard to beat! This was our 6th year in a row of staying with you, and coincided with my birthday. Your extra efforts to make it a special stay were thoroughly appreciated, and have served to cement in our minds what we already knew; that the staff at Bowood are brilliant at providing excellent customer service and paying attention to detail. Each year we have visited, the Bowood staff have managed to provide consistently good service, and a high quality offering, but most of all, they are so friendly and willing to help. In particular, a special mention this time should go to Seb for rescuing us (and our luggage!) from the pouring rain on arrival. We are already looking forward to our next visit; which we will no doubt plan soon.”

“We wanted to say a big thank you to all the staff at Bowood who made our stay on 13th January, celebrating our Golden Wedding Anniversary, with our family, such a fantastic success. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. All the staff were so kind and attentive, nothing was too much trouble.”
Janet & Roger, January 2023
“We all had an absolutely amazing time and couldn't fault anything, from the food, to the rooms, the spa and the lovely gifts. But the whole thing came together because of one aspect.... the wonderful staff! We can't praise them all highly enough for making our Christmas so special.”
