Special place for a wedding.
Pros:

Location was super, and the organising was really good great listening to the peacocks and watching them display their plumage 🪶.

Cons:

Trying to get a positive response on the phone to early booking in time, kept repeating that they were too busy and it probably wouldn't be possible, then when we arrived very early they produced our room within half an hour with no fuss at all. So redeemed themselves.

Pros:

Our second stay at Pendley Manor as we so enjoyed our first visit. This stay was as good as the first, in fact better as we stayed longer! Staff as helpful and professional as before. Food excellent as before. We were there during the hottest days and nights of the June heatwave. We were kept cool and comfortable in our bedroom during the hottest nights. Not uncomfortably cold, it was set at a perfect temperature, which gave us such relief after the fiercely hot days. The lovely pool also was a relief to cool off in after being out during the day.
A very good hotel all round in a beautiful, wooded setting

Cons:

There was nothing to dislike.

Complete environment atmosphere inside out so magical
Pros:

I really loved the atmosphere and facilities available like sauna, steam room, swim and gym, in a beautiful place and environment. The room was outstanding for me. I really felt comfortable and relaxed in the manor, I’d love if there was an option for a membership with more to do with getting stays over at the hotel and using the facilities package

Cons:

It was amazing nothing was a struggle everything was perfect and nicely presented, I wish the prices for food were slightly cheaper and sometimes the room prices can go up frequently, but I can understand with the service provided
