What a delightful hotel to hold our anniversary, it’s classy, inviting, beautifully decorated throughout, historically interesting, and beautiful gardens all around the hotel. For a full report, we encourage you to read all three reviews, along with 60 photos we have for you to help you see why we booked this hotel for a special day. If you enjoy good food, well presented, and served by caring staff, then please do go along for an afternoon visit at least. We spent the day here, taking in lunch, before our overnight stay, and then somehow found room for a three course dinner later on, rather silly, as we were then so full, we missed breakfast the next morning as we just had no room left for more food. It would have been great when in our younger days, but as older people we do not eat as much as we used to Our review starts with photo of NutHurst Grange hotel (photo 1), and we entered the reception (photo 2) and kindly escorted to the Orangery restaurant for our three course lunch (photo 3) with delicious warm homemade rolls and a glass of wine each (photo 4). Our meal was served by Peter our waiter (photo 5) We retired into the delightful lounge (photo 6) and simply relaxed as evening drew close (photo 7) while a warm glow settled over the hotel as twilight arrived (photo 8). We returned to our ground floor disabled room, (photo 9) to view our comfortable bed (photo 10) in a very spacious, minimalistic furnished room (photo 11). Then the bathroom, wow ! Beautifully tiled in light grey warm looking tiles (photo 12) with a heated towel rail, walk in shower, a deep bath,with an emergency telephone ready by the shower cubicle. One of the best bathrooms we have seen. (photo 13). Dressed and ready for dinner, we entered the lounge and settled in for the evening (photo 14) for a pre-dinner Sherry, served by our pleasant Head waiter (photo 15) who then escorted us to the Kingswood restaurant (photo 16) an elegant, beautifully furnished and decorative room (photo 17) and thoroughly enjoyed another three course dinner (photo 18). And the evening came to a conclusion with the staff and fellow guest congratulating us on our 59th wedding anniversary. Our final thoughts If you choose to have a special day here, you will really be looked after, with excellent menus served by attentive and friendly staff, and what they put in front of you will be a treat. So don’t forget to read all three parts of the reviews for this lovely hotel.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
If you arrive early, you have every chance of taking the only disabled bay here. Then your carer will need to go inside to arrange for staff to place a ramp down to get you up a step into the hotel.
Parking & Transport
Good
One disabled bay, right by front door, grateful to have this, but do read part one and two for details of other parking.
Accessible Toilets
Good
It’s just a few feet away from restaurants, on the level, and nice and clean, with grab rail to help you.
Staff
Excellent
We really appreciate the willing and friendly staff here, we have been before, so that’s why we booked this hotel for our 25 year anniversary, and they will all do their best for you.
