A group of us visited the spa for a friends 50th Birthday. A good time was had by all. We were made to feel welcome on arrival and robes, slippers and towels were provided. You need a £1 coin for the lockers. The gym is well equipped with modern machines and free weights, kettle weights, palates balls ect. Something to... More

Great location and very pleasant public areas with choice of places to sit and read the papers after a good breakfast - choice could be a bit wider but at least the food is fresh cooked and not those awful heated tureen style things you get in so many places. Staff were lovely although somewhat (very) inexperienced. My major criticism... More

We have been to this hotel twice this year, once in Winter and once in Spring. Both experiences were wonderful. We travelled with our 2 young children. Rooms are spacious, with extras you'd expect in a 5 star hotel - fluffy robes, slippers etc - and that included the children too! It is clean, spotless with soft, stylish decor. Staff... More

First impressions of The Bowood Hotel are good. The grounds are beautiful and you get a sneak preview of how wonderful the golf course is. We were made welcome by very helpful reception staff and were delighted with our balcony room. The room was spacious and beautifully presented. The bathroom was great containing both a bath and excellent shower. Robes... More

A snap decision to spend the night away at a hotel with a swimming pool led us to this one. Very pleasant position in beautiful parkland of the Bowood Estate. We booked a standard de luxe room b&b plus evening meal at the brasserie rather than the restaurant. The room was a good size & well equipped, the bathroom [in... More

Staff was nice, shame though that the cook fed me a burger with plastic still on it. Golf staff really nice and helpful. Rooms basic but clean. unfortunately got ill after eating the "plastic burger". To be fair hotel apologised but we could not eat there again after that as we did not trust their food.

This is a very pleasant hotel - worthy of a definite 5* rating in itself. The rooms are spacious with high ceilings and very good quality fittings. The bed was amazingly confortable & the bathroom large and well fitted. Public areas are well presented with a very nice 'feel' - although Vodka & Tonic at nearly £10 a pop could... More

We wanted an easy night away at a really good quality hotel after a couple of disappointments at places on the south coast and Bowood Hotel delivered. I should say through sheer luck the hotel was not particularily busy when we visited so my comments should be taken with that in mind. It is clear a significant amount of thought,... More

We wanted to find a hotel where we could take our 2 and 5 year old boys, with a pool, spa and enough space for us all in one room, for a short break. Although Bowood tries to juggle between the conflicting requirements of golfers, families and couples it does so well. We had an excellent room, very well appointed... More
