Lovely experience at Cowley manor, shame the steam room wasn’t working. Had a room change due to noisy neighbours and the hotel were really accommodating. Breakfast options were great, beautiful grounds and very comfy beds.

Poor Spa, great hotel
Can’t really fault the hotel apart from one small instance where we asked reception to book us a taxi to get us to our dinner reservation, but they had forgotten and we ended up being 30 mins late, otherwise it was great and the food was excellent. Decor was stunning, and the bathrooms were a particular highlight. The spa however really let the side down, and considering it’s a spa hotel makes it overall quite disappointing. The staff aren’t helpful in the spa, the steam room was unavailable all weekend, lack of staff led to a limited menu at pool bar then our couples massage was cancelled an hour before because there wasn’t enough staff, they offered an unsuitable replacement (facial) or a different date but we aren’t local so it was of no use to us and meant we didn’t use the spa that day. The responses from main reception at checkout and the spa was unsatisfactory which is disappointing for a luxury hotel.

Special place!
We had the most incredible stay for our baby moon. It’s such a stunning location. Really special! The restaurant and bar staff, the design, the atmosphere is just perfect.

A great stay in a wonderful place. The setting was lovely and the food brilliant. The spa was great too - but it was a shame that the staff seemed so inexperienced / unaware of how the systems worked there. Apart from this frustration, everything else was brilliant.

8/10 Very good

Loved our weekend here - amazing property and grounds - really great food - very relaxing. Decor - tired and overly themed and the French designer clearly prioritised style over comfort and doesn’t know how to design a chair. The spa is beautiful but the treatments were underwhelming and a bit basic for the £££. So in summary a contemporary and beautiful property run by kids - very lovely kids who tried hard…but kids all the same. Feels like a grown up needs to get a hold of this place.

Nice hotel, lovely spa and gardens
Nice hotel, lots of potential, slightly tired in place but a cute blend of old and new. Not the greatest service, (maybe we expected too much) nice people with zero urgency. Lovely spa and pool area. Food is good, cocktails overpriced (£20) and whoever thinks charging £5 for water is acceptable? All in all a nice stay

The most comfortable nights sleep in the most beautiful, quirky hotel room. The hotel itself is stunning, set in expansive, landscaped grounds with ample communal spaces. The food in the restaurant was delicious, service impeccable and attention to detail really impressive. At check in, George was welcoming, friendly, professional and pleasant. He set the tone for a fabulous, relaxing stay.

6/10 Good

The hype related to Cowley Manor's recent makeover turned out to be just that. Hype. The breakfast and dinner menu is small, but the food is fantastic. The spa is a bright spot. Overall the level and quality of service needs addressing. The side entrance to the hotel has loose and broken floor tiles that are in need of significant repair. All in all a somewhat underwhelming visit despite initial high hopes.

We visited Cowley Manor Experimental to celebrate my partners birthday and from the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make it extra special. The Hotel and grounds are very impressive and the spa was a great bonus. Overall an amazing stay and would definitely return.

Beautiful Manor House set in stunning grounds with lake and waterfalls. Huge clean and comfortable rooms, excellent food and wine choice. Check-in and check -out could have been a bit more organised, but that really is a minor detail.
