This hotel is a class act. We stayed here on a visit to the Cheltenham Jazz Festival and it's one of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed in. The staff were warm and friendly, it's not stuffy at all. It's not cheap either but the grounds and the spa are very special indeed, especially on a warm day which we... More

Have just returned from a second stay at this absolutely wonderful hotel. Where do I start? OK, well, if you're expecting a traditional country manor house be prepared. Traditional it isn't. However, this beautiful old manor house whilst retaining a lot of original features has been given a very contemporary touch. And it works although on my first visit I... More

Had a nice weekend. Don't often write reviews but feel they are helpful to others. If you go at the weekend or school holidays beware it is full and I mean full of kids. Not always well behaved, they almost take over the hotel. Went a few weekends ago and Sunday was manic. Lots of families and had to wait... More

This place is as good as last time we stayed – a year ago. We went for our anniversary again as it was such a delight the first time. We were not disappointed. OK.. we didn’t get an Exceptional room this time, but the Better room was still fab and so interesting as it was in the stable block not... More

We enjoyed a wonderful two night stay at Cowley Manor for our wedding anniversary. This really is a special hotel where the old world meets contemporary laid back elegance in all respects. The building is stunning with wonderful views over its 55 acre grounds and the rolling Cotswold hills. The rooms are spacious with amazing bathrooms and very comfortable beds.... More

I stayed here for a couple of days for a business board meeting that was also held in the hotel. The place is a bit tricky to find, even with satnav, but it is really beautiful once you do. It is a converted old manor house but has been refurbished is quite a quirky, contemporary way. They are definitely targeting... More

This is the second time we have stayed at Cowley, but this time on a dinner bed and breakfast rate. I would say that the service has improved and the food was really amazing. We stayed at Babington House not long afterwards and are still comparing the two trying to decide which we prefer, but mine would be Cowley. Cowley... More

I stayed here last week with my wife and our 1 year old. We were here for a long weekend, over the bank holiday and had a fantastic time. We were recommended the hotel by a family member who also has a baby and were not disappointed. The service is fantastic and the staff were very helpful and accommodating to... More

My wife and I stayed at Cowely manor for our honeymoon. We were greeted with champagne and were upgraded to the 'best' room. A huge bed and bigger bathroom. The balcony opened out with a stunning view of the gardens. We booked ourselves in for some spa treatments and enjoyed the indoor and outdoor pool. Interestingly the outdoor pool was... More
