What guests think
Woodland Manor Hotel is a characterful, quiet manor set in lovely grounds near Bedford, frequently praised for friendly, attentive staff and good value, attracting guests for short stays and relaxing breaks away from busier chain hotels.
Rooms are generally large and comfortable, with some suites offering extra space, though several reviews note dated decor, occasional noise near functions, and inconsistent temperature control or lack of air conditioning. Breakfast and bar meals receive many compliments, but recurring issues include limited breakfast choice, slow service during busy periods, and underwhelming coffee or specific dishes. Facilities include ample parking and pleasant bar and restaurant spaces; however, there is no lift and event days can affect quietness and service. Expect a charming stay with friendly service and a few quirks.

I would happily stay there again, however, not when there’s a wedding function, unless you’re happy to stay in the char until midnight. Don’t stay in rooms 38 & 39, although 38 was fine, unless you are getting up with the dawn chorus, as the curtains don’t block the morning sun. 39 is known as the dungeon by the staff. Very dark and close to the action on a wedding function. Be careful when adding breakfast on Expedia, single occupancy double rooms are charged for two breakfasts per night’s stay. Overworked bar staff did their best with many guests and few staff. An Rhian, I hope I have the name correct, was very good handling our disappointments and is the main reason why I would stay there again. Very nice building and grounds, only 5 mins walk from the High Street with a good pub with beer gardens, a Tesco Extra and an excellent Italian restaurant, Bellini’s…Tell Don John and Jackie sent you.

Great stay, very pleasant, helpful and friendly staff. Comfortable room. Secure well kept site, nice looking English Manor house property - lovely grounds. Secluded, peaceful, edge of village, a stone's throw from Bedford and only a mile off the A6. Would definitely recommend, and I'd stay there again (always the best review in my opinion!)

Stayed there after a local event. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable though a bit dated and our room was missing a table. The room was huge, which was great but the small dated furniture made it look naked. Over all it was a very good experience so I would recommend. Ps. NOT a spa...

We had a lovely stay at Woodland Manor. We booked a suite and we’re given the signature suite which was huge and had patio doors out into the garden. Although it was the warmest weekend of the year, the room was lovely and cool (it had a fan for back up) All the staff we met were warm and courteous, nothing was too much trouble.

Whilst the hotel is a lovely building in nice grounds, the corridors to the room were extremely cold. Unfortunately so was the bedroom. There was no heating on. I used the plug in heater supplied to warm the room and it did, after 6hrs and time to wake up. I do not expect to have to use a hairdryer to warm the bedroom to get to sleep.

Would have been useful to know that major refurbishment was affecting the hotel & perhaps a sign directing people to the temporary entrance….didn’t affect us unduly as we literally just needed a bed for the night.

Things one should know: no elevator. You'll be hauling your bags up stairs...and upstairs... and then down to get to your room. On this visit we skipped the breakfast but we had it previously and it was wonderful. My brother-in-law booked an afternoon tea with us there last week. Maybe they were just too busy due to a wedding. They dropped the tea and goodies and never checked back. Our visit last week.... we had a clean room. This stay however: crumbs and a bobby pin on the floor and some remaining water in the kettle so it did not feel like a clean room. No air conditioning there either and one of the two windows was evidently broken because they put screws in the corners so that it could not be opened. It was a quiet place to sleep. The beds were not comfy but ok.

I expected a lot more from a Manor hotel, the interior décor & furniture was extremely tired, dated, damaged. Mould & shower leaks in the bathroom. Broken sash windows which could not hold open (and it was a hot day!) The room & bathroom in serious need of a revamp. It reminded me of a cheap 2 star B&B at the coast, not an elegant manor hotel.

Characterful Hotel in lovely grounds, we stayed in the out building which was spacious and quiet. Room was clean and tidy and so was bathroom. Shower was warm with good pressure, our only concern was the floor tiles got very slippery when wet, care had to be taken! The full English Breakfast was excellent and service was very good. Would certainly recommend this hotel to friends and family.

Doing an event in Bedford so stayed the night before. Very convenient location close to Bedford, very clean and excellent value for money. Staff were efficient and friendly. Even though there was a wedding with an evening DJ we had a room at the back of the hotel and were not disturbed by the disco. Great pub less than 10 minute walk away.

Breakfast was limited and not enough choice of cereals or fruit. No HOT water for a cup of tea. Tepid out of the coffee machine. No bin or any facilities to put tea bags or empty cereal boxes. Room was very spacious and clean which as it was the signsture suit was what I expected. A fridge in the room would have been useful and a safe.

A surprisingly lovely hotel, that I wasn’t expecting for the price of £60 (no breakfast). I looked at the pictures and for some reason expected the hotel to be in a more work state but I am glad to say I was wrong. Yes you can tell it’s used but it was not shoddy and immaculately clean. It did seem to be run on a skeleton staff, however this did not detract from the service. The member of staff that greeted me and waited on me during my meal was an absolute delight and there are many who could learn from his customer service skills. I can’t recall his name unfortunately but he was from Nepal, and he could not have been more pleasant or welcoming. He is an absolute asset the this hotel. The room was cosy and had a bath and shower, which was lovely and hot. The bed was very comfortable and the window opened nicely for some fresh air. I didn’t spot any air con as the heating was from a radiator, that was easily temperature controllable. The TV was large enough but could receive too many channels (I could access the menu to retune it but I wasn’t too fussed). All in all a lovely stay and the chap they checked me out early the next day was just as friendly.

A lovely property set in rural Bedfordshire. I arrived and checked in with ease and the staff are very friendly, polite and welcoming. Went to the bar, had food and drink and all was excellent tasting, and served in a good time. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. All in all, a very lovely stay and would highly recommend this hotel.

The Woodland Manor Hotel is set in beautiful grounds. Staff at reception were friendly. Our room was clean and spacious with both Bath and Shower. Unfortunately, there was no full length mirror and the Hot water tap needed a note of caution. It ran very hot. Apart from that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The bed was very comfortable.

We stayed at the Woodland Manor for one night. Upon our arrival, we were greeted with the friendliest team of receptionists. Our room had great facilities and more than comfortable for a one night stay. A fire door alarm went off within the middle of the night however once again the team in reception were superb and quick to resolve the issue. Great stay, would definitely recommend if staying in Clapham or the wider Bedford area.

A fire door alarm went off within the middle of the night however once again the team in reception were superb and quick to resolve the issue. Great stay, would definitely recommend if staying in Clapham or the wider Bedford area.

A large but also charming period property. Loved the grand staircase, stained glass window with heraldry, and stylish chandelier. Best thing? All the staff were so friendly and attentive.

Me and my partner stayed here last weekend for 2 nights when we checked in we were greeted by Dan who is an amazing young man and should be definitely promoted to management , we were early but he checked to see if our room was ready for us, we went to the bar for lunch and he went to the kitchen to see what they didn’t have on menu to let us know, he was extremely friendly and was up for the laugh. That evening we ate in the restaurant followed by a few drinks in the bar, we were served by the manager bijay who was also very friendly and chatty, the breakfast was lovely everyday and staff were amazing , we will 1000% return here again in future.

Poor customer service, got back one night no car dpaces had to wait gor one to appear then the Thursday night you had a school prom, which took me over half an hour to get from the main rd to the rear car park where there was only one space, plus music on till 11pm then the staff banging about putting stuff away till after midnight, the least you could have done was inform guest about this event

Doing an event in Bedford so stayed the night before. Very convenient location close to Bedford, very clean and excellent value for money. Staff were efficient and friendly. Even though there was a wedding with an evening DJ we had a room at the back of the hotel and were not disturbed by the disco. Great pub less than 10 minute walk away.

Great stay, very pleasant, helpful and friendly staff. Comfortable room. Secure well kept site, nice looking English Manor house property - lovely grounds. Secluded, peaceful, edge of village, a stone's throw from Bedford and only a mile off the A6. Would definitely recommend, and I'd stay there again (always the best review in my opinion!)

Characterful Hotel in lovely grounds, we stayed in the out building which was spacious and quiet. Room was clean and tidy and so was bathroom. Shower was warm with good pressure, our only concern was the floor tiles got very slippery when wet, care had to be taken! The full English Breakfast was excellent and service was very good. Would certainly recommend this hotel to friends and family.

The phone in my room didn't work so I had to go to reception to order room service. The food was very bad. The chicken burger, was overcooked and inedible. The 'fries' were more like frozen wedges and didn't taste goon. No condiments were provided on the tray. The breakfast buffet was poor with very little choice but the menu part of breakfast was decent. The room was too hot and the bedding far too thick for the season. The room was OK but a little 'tired' and old.

Breakfast was limited and not enough choice of cereals or fruit. No HOT water for a cup of tea. Tepid out of the coffee machine. No bin or any facilities to put tea bags or empty cereal boxes. Room was very spacious and clean which as it was the signsture suit was what I expected. A fridge in the room would have been useful and a safe.

Unfortunately our trip coincided with a wedding. We needed lunch quickly to get to a function elsewhere ourselves. Two salads should not have taken nearly an hour. Also the food was of a very poor standard so we didn’t bother turning up for breakfast the next day. As a man old building we certainly missed having air con on the hottest night of the year. Room was comfortable but bathroom was cramped and body wash/shampoo etc could only be reached if showering, not from the bath.

Last-minute booking after flight cancellation. Staff helpful, chef stayed on to ensure we could have an evening meal when we arrived just after kitchen was due to close. Both evening meal and breakfast were excellent quality and well presented making for an enjoyable, if unexpected, short stay.
