Overview

What a surprise, it has snowed during the night, and it is thick, how are we to cope ? As stated in our previous 5 reviews on this our favourite hotel, although a fantastic hotel and Spa and health club, access for disabled is not easy, it is best if you have a bit of mobility, but you will not be disappointed, and unless chair bound, you will really enjoy Pennyhill Park. It is early morning now on the day of our departure, so a shower will start the day nicely for us. The room is lovely and warm (photo 1) and it’s a huge wet room that calls us (photo 2) a large bath will be handy for your carer (photo 3) and there are two sinks available, one for you, another for carer (photo 4), and the wet room is quite large and easy to use the overhead shower (photo 5) Right, we are dressed and time to head for breakfast along the warm pleasant corridor from our room (photo 6) The snow lays thick and white (photo 7) but at least the staff have cleared all the driveways, especially the drive heading down that steep slope towards the health club (photo 8) but snow does add that touch to the surroundings doesn’t it (photo 9). Even the pool will no doubt attract the brave (photo 10) winter swimming is now the in thing, but we will forget it completely, but later on no doubt, the health club facilities ahead will be crowded (photo 11) For us, the problem is getting up the slope and into the main hotel (photo 12). Well, that was easier than we thought, mind you my husband had to get up off his wheelchair, and hang on to the wheelchair while I guided us up, good job he has a little mobility and could manage. Still, we are at our breakfast table (photo 13) with the difficult task of choosing our breakfast hot meal, while all the usual buffet style cereal and juice is available (photo 14) My husband did as normal, filled himself, with porridge and pancakes (photo 15) How can anyone eat so much ? he even tucked into the freshly made baked bread and cakes (photo 16) and he is now waiting for his cooked breakfast (photo 17) I hope he has had enough now, as it’s time to be heading off and departing from what has been a most enjoyable break that has lived up to our expectations. Thank you Pennyhill Park.

Transport & Parking

So pleased we had parked in the one and only disabled bay, as it is close to the main entrance.

Access

Dodgy, now that snow lies all around, that slope from our room to the main entrance is going to prove to be difficult, but at least they have cleared the snow off the driveways.

Toilets

Staff

Breakfast staff were helpful, but early morning starts may have not helped them. Not quite as friendly as other staff, but at least they got on with it.
