Verified review

6/10 Good

The room was amazing in size and great that they can set it up for a family with young kids. I will say the roll out cot bed was deeply uncomfortable though! For the money you pay I would hope guests could use the beds by the kids swimming pool without having to pay extra. The food at this pool was also pretty bad. But elsewhere, such as the breakfast, was really good.

8/10 Very good

Really enjoyed the stay. Staff were great, room was very comfortable, food and service was wonderful. The only negative was that the water in the pool / jacuzzi was quite cold

Great service, very nice grounds. A bit big and far from other things, but the rooms are very comfortable and it's perfect for a short staycation away from London

Beautiful place, conveniently located. We had a celebration and we were made to feel very special. Only one very disappointing experience at the Spa marred our stay. Hotel offered a free treatment but as we were leaving the next day it was of no use to us. They should have offered refund. All in all it was fun. Loved the lounge, the food at Madhu’s.

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at The Grove in December 2025 with our toddler and had a wonderful experience. The hotel felt magical at Christmas, beautifully decorated, warm and welcoming throughout. Our room was spacious, spotless, and well set up for a family stay, which made everything feel easy and relaxed. The staff were exceptional: genuinely friendly, attentive, and especially thoughtful with our little one. Dining was excellent, with great options and flexibility for families, and the grounds were stunning even in winter, perfect for walks. A truly luxurious but family-friendly hotel. We felt very well looked after and would absolutely return.

Super hotel

Great stay with family for fathers day. We ate at all of the restaurants, all were super, but the breakfast really must be the best I have ever had in the UK. Grounds and activities were all great too.
