What guests think

Aldwark Manor Estate earns strong praise for its beautiful countryside setting, elegant interiors, spacious comfortable rooms, and friendly, attentive staff, with many guests enjoying quality dining and relaxing views across the grounds and golf course.

Common drawbacks include ongoing building works and periods of spa or pool closure or tired facilities. Several reviews also note higher food and drink prices, a remote location with few nearby alternatives, and occasional slow restaurant service. Other recurring issues are lack of air conditioning and some noise near events or equipment, plus occasional housekeeping or maintenance oversights. Expect a stylish, tranquil stay with strong service and comfort, tempered by potential facility works and a premium feel.

Great hotel with fantastic food and staff. Rooms was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Time between ordering food and it being served was a slight issue at breakfast (30 minutes seemed excessive for beans and poached eggs) but was just about worth the wait. Only one car charging station working wasn’t ideal either but will definitely be back.

This is a lovely hotel - some great facilities and in a lovely country location. They are in the progress of renewing and expanding so there is building work going on and there will be a great new spa (the old one is OK but too small and once there are a few people in there it feels full, not enough seating etc). Food was nice, good breakfast and the staff were very friendly. The rate we were on was well below advertised price but our room reflected that, it was noisy due to being next to the main extractor fan from the kitchen.

Plenty of parking and lovely walks. All out time there we NEVER had disturbing noise from other rooms, perfectly quiet. The ONLY let down was the Pool was closed due to refurbishing. Should be lovely next time. I would highly recommend this hotel .

This is a beautiful estate, the standard of the rooms were excellent and the food/service very very good. The only negative would be the spa area for me, there is a considerable amount of mold in the women’s showers, the steam room and sauna door both fit close with a good seal and aren’t particularly warm.

I would definitely stay in this beautiful hotel again.

Lovely building and setting. Good quality decor throughout the hotel. Room very nice with nice views. Nice little touches like Molton Brown bathroom products, small bottles of milk and iced water on arrival. However, our room was directly above rooms used for a wedding reception and the noise until midnight was simply horrendous. The room was vibrating and noise from guests was loud and at times crude. Overall had a very poor nights sleep. We were not advised that we might be inconvenienced by the wedding party. We were given a modest refund when checking out. Overall the staff were a bit indifferent. The stay would have been very good if we hadn’t encountered the noise.

Good dinner and wonderful breakfast with quality ingredients and a good range of choices. Excellent service and lovely staff - we returned for a second night a few days later and a welcome back card and gift was waiting in our room.

Aldwark is an excellent hotel . Refurbished the rooms are well furnished with good quality furniture. Breakfast was great, good quality ingredients . Day 1 was buffet service, and the food/plates weren't't very warm. Day 2 it was waiter service with hot, first class ingredients. Our evening meal in Elements was very enjoyable. Great steak, which was extremely well cooked.Downsides - no A/C, and window restrictors which only allowed a small volume of air in. Duvets were summer duvets, and far too hot, which meant we were too hot overnight. Also small touches were overlooked. We were given 3 hangers, there was no mirror adjacent to the hair dryer, the shower had no shelf for shampoo/soap etc.Room lighting was poor, dark shades and too dark to read comfortably. Would we stay again - yes but not during summer months.

Gave me a front elevation small room on 2nd floor not a garden view room which I payed for. Complained and was told there was no notes from hotels . Com to state this fact. They were not interested. Stated all other rooms were taken —-really! Food I requested in the restaurant off their menu was not available at 19.45 and hardly anyone in the restaurant. Miniscule portions. Breakfast was good. Stayed here several times and never had service like this. Will never stay here again.

My girlfriend and I went there for what she thought was just a relaxing couple of nights, unaware that I intended to propose to her. I informed the hotel of this in advance and honestly, they couldn't have been more accommodating! I sent balloons, banners etc, and they had our suite all decorated and set up for us arriving. The hotel and grounds are beautiful to say the least and the staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending a stay here. Thank you to everyone we had the pleasure of meeting there.

Visited this hotel several times previously for long weekends and we always have a nice break, The hotel is in transition at present the latest being the spa and leisure facility being updated and therefore not in use. Room was good with all the facilities you would expect from a hotel of this stature, including a comfy bed. The hotel is set in a brilliant location surrounded by the countryside views that you never get fed up with. Food in the restaurant was also good, breakfast can other be from the Buffett or ordered from the menu. Staff outstanding as ever, pleasant and courteous always happy to help. Bunkers bar which is a separate area for the golfers is also pleasant to have a drink or eat in, especially in the afternoon sun. The one big negative for this hotel is the bar prices that are very expensive. The biggest winners are the pub in the village, which is full of hotel guests in the evening.

Sports bar is normally great for food & drinks, only thing I could possibly complain about was the lack of options for food in The Bunker. They ran out of Pizzas on my last visit & it was basically a choice of a Burger or a Burger! Apart from that this is beautiful place to stay.
