Great overnight stay. It was nice to be welcomed by the lovely Damon and acknowledged as a returning guest on arrival with a card and personalised literature. Our room was perfect, overlooking the church in the garden wing. …

We had an outstanding experience in this amazing hotel : a castle located in the middle of a wood , quiet and peaceful place, everything is so well maintained. The staff was not less than perfect- so friendly, helpful and professional. We had a superior garden room which was beautiful and spacious, very clean and pleasant. We had a 3 course meal and it was so good! The other nights we had dinner in the lounge and we enjoyed so much from the drinks and the food. The swimming pool is indoor and it’s in good size and very pleasant, so are the sauna and the hot tub. Our vacation was perfect and we felt that our money was so well spent.We will be definitely coming back!

My wife and I selected England/Scotland as the destination for our honeymoon, drawn by the allure of the famed North Coast 500. We had visited England several times before and have eaten at the hotel, but never had the opportunity to stay the night.From the times before and the moment we arrived, the hotel captivated us with its picturesque setting, nestled amid the stunning landscapes that define the English countryside. The building itself was a perfect blend of rustic elegance and modern comfort, making us feel immediately at home. The staff at the hotel were incredibly welcoming, going out of their way to ensure our stay was not just comfortable but memorable. Their recommendations for local sights and activities enriched our experience of both England and the Scottish Highlands. Special shout out to Chris and Damon!!The accommodations were superb, with attention to detail that made our suite a cozy retreat after a day spent exploring the countryside. As for the food, it was one of the best highlights of our stay. Each meal featured locally sourced ingredients, with dishes expertly prepared to showcase the region’s culinary traditions mixed with innovative twists.We were so impressed by our stay at the hotel that stayed again on our trip to back to London from Scotland. For anyone venturing to this part of the world, especially along the scenic English countryside, staying at this hotel is absolutely essential. It's not just a place to stay; it's a key part of the journey.

Our events at Ettington Park are always excellent. We try to use Ettington whenever we can and our delegates comment every time on just how “right” and perfect everything is. It all just runs like clockwork.They seamlessly blend the grandeur of the hotel with excellent business facilities. The rooms are really good and the staff are brilliant.

This is a very old hotel I think the building has been in the family for 800 years.It's also classed as the most haunted hotel in Britain.It is absolutely beautiful both outside and inside and the grounds are kept immaculate.There is a large family Chapel in the grounds that's worth having a look at from the outside part of it as obviously decayed over the years but it is a really beautiful place to visit.The staff make you feel special when you're there and inside it's like stepping back into history I thoroughly recommend this hotel.
