Really lovely stay here. Staff were friendly, helpful and worked together well as a team which shone through. We stayed in a cottage room in the garden which was well appointed, clean, spacious and had an outdoor verandah area for sitting. It was peaceful and well maintained. Other parts of the grounds were not so well kept but as a whole it was fine. A little off the beaten track but the food was excellent and generous so no need to go elsewhere.

Fantastic stay, not to miss out on!

Beautiful place to stay with really professional and super friendly staff. The whole place feels relaxed and really well thought out. Brilliant food, lovely accommodation. We had a great time! Only problem was the very thin duvet but I’m sure if we had realised before bedtime and told them they would have changed this for us. We managed by turning up the heating a little and sleeping in jumpers. Highly recommend this spot for anyone, honestly it’s brilliant!

Fantastic setting with really well finished, self contained units comprising of the bedroom with sofa and vanity table. A fridge was provided with mini-bar items. A few too many spiders for my liking but we were in the countryside. Some work had been carried out on the bathroom ceiling but a patch job had been done to cover it. The bed was comfy, shower was great and the breakfast in the restaurant was top notch. I can imagine how lovely this would be to stay at in the Summer.

Lovely place and surroundings with very friendly staff. The garden studio was lovely. The only couple of negative points I had were: the blinds and window areas were very dirty with cobwebs in the window area near the bed, so I didn't open the windows. The room smelt like dogs in places. I'm aware pets are allowed but I thought a thorough clean would take place before the next guest. It wasn't great for my asthma symptoms. Apart from this, it was all fine :-)

Disappointing Experience for a Very Special Occasion We stayed at this hotel over the weekend as bridesmaids for our best friend Kathy, who had booked to stay here with her partner Marcus for their wedding weekend. Sadly, from start to finish, the service and management were a huge letdown. Communication from the admin and management team was consistently poor and caused unnecessary stress in the lead-up to what should have been the happiest weekend for Kathy and Marcus. Kathy had booked a suite for both Friday and Saturday night, and the restaurant which was intended to host her wedding party for a celebratory meal on the Saturday. Despite this being arranged well in advance, the lack of communication and follow-through from the management left her and Marcus in an incredibly difficult situation. While the head chef tried to salvage the arrangements in the final month, he then informed Kathy just days before the wedding (on the Wednesday) that he had parted ways with the venue on bad terms. This left Kathy and Marcus completely stranded, having to make last-minute catering arrangements—something no couple should be dealing with days before their wedding. In terms of accommodation, both suites (ours and Kathy’s) were disappointing. The rooms were dusty and had cobwebs in the windows. Despite the heatwave, the towel rail heaters had been left on, making the rooms unbearably hot. In Kathy’s suite—the room where she was meant to get ready for her wedding and spend her first

Beautiful hotel which maintains its original charm yet has all the modern conveniences. Luxurious room with amazing bathroom. Coach house restaurant is lovely and breakfast was top drawer. Staff could not have been more helpful. A lovely stay and will definitely be back.

A lovely hotel with friendly staff. It had obviously been made over to a very high standard but the building is now beginning to show signs of wear. We stayed in the Manor House and the carpet on stairs needed attention. That said, the room, towels and fittings were quality, the grounds were lovely and well maintained.

Perfect romantic stay

A Perfect romantic getaway! After reading good reviews we decided to book & we were not disappointed. The house is beautiful & we had the comfiest super king sized bed & an enormous en-suite with free standing bath. It really was a luxury stay & the food was fabulous. We stayed for our anniversary & the Kentisbury Grange staff made us feel so special. I Would definitely return!

The lodge was spacious very modern and very well maintained. The hot tub outside was a gem we arrived it was windy and raining but the hot tub stay very hot indeed even after staying in it for over 2 hours it was still hot. The huge bath tub inside is huge and is insulated. The whole room was a hidden gem in the country side. Staff was very welcoming and couldn't do enough for you. Breakfast in the coach house was very nice. An open space with luxury at it's best. We will be staying here again in the near future.

Nice couple weekend

1st time staying at Grange Garsden Suite . Rooms are huge by hotel standards both bedroom and bathroom are well equipped, modern and very airy. Breakfast served in the barn ( very pleasant setting)was excellent both in Quality and quantity. Ate at the restaurant on only one of our two nights and again were very happy with both quality and quantity of the food. Service was very good throughout our stay, although I get the impression that staffing is tight, restaurant staff looked really tired, busy didn’t let it affect their demeanour. Can recommend and would stay again.

Beautiful garden areas and our room in the main house was comfortable, clean and tastefully furnished. Staff very helpful and breakfast good. Check in not until 4pm and then check out at 10am; would be nice if extended. No hot water in the morning (also heard two other rooms report this issue) which spoilt an otherwise enjoyable stay.
