We stayed in Crabapple Cottage on the Goodwood estate for three nights in September. Our party was made up of two couples and two dogs. |The cottage was beautifully decorated and furnished with everything we needed. …

We had a good spacious room. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was excellent and I enjoyed the spa. Our dog really enjoyed it. We will visit again. It is a very dog-friendly hotel with good parking. The Farmer Butcher and Chef restaurant was particularly good.

We stayed here for one night as we were attending a wedding at The Kennels. We had asked for an early checkin due to the timing of the wedding and we’re told that they couldn’t guarantee this but would make a note on their system.  …

On the whole an excellent stay with excellent staff. |Serving soup on cold plates was disappointing. |Entitling one dish on the menu ‘Pig’s Head’ did not sound very appetising!|The presence of our canine friends everywhere was a great joy. |Mr and Mrs Richard HEMING.

Would not go back. Reminded me of the Crossroads Motel. The rooms were fairly basic for the price, bathroom was very small. Breakfast was a bit hit and miss to say the least. The flagship restaurant, Farmer, Butcher, Chef was terrible, the staff need training , they are mainly very young and inexperienced, We waited 25 mins to be offered a menu, even though the majority of the staff seemed to be busy doing nothing. My starter included a crab bisque being poured over the dish but I had to ask for a spoon. Both main courses arrived cold, we sent them back, We later found out that we weren't the only ones to be served a cold meal that evening. I suspect they were then microwaved. The meat was very tough and chewy, the course was very poor in general. I paid a supplement for the cheeseboard, which involved estate made cheeses, they were basically tasteless. The only highlight was the wine and the young lady who served us, she was extremely knowledgeable and engaging. The restaurant would not survive a month if it was anywhere else. It has a captive market consisting of locals and guests. The hotel is not up to its four star rating and clearly lives on the Goodwood name.

We haven't been since 2016 as we were so disappointed by that last visit. This time we wanted a couple of days away midweek with access to a pool and gym.|The room was a long way from reception involving several stairs. …
