Family photo get together
Pros:

Our visit was a family get together with a photographer taking pictures of us all.
Arranged with the help of Amy Lake, it was great fun to organise - she helped with suggestions on locations, room layout and food options.
The rooms are excellent, clean and comfortable and good value.
The food was quite splendid as was our service and the service team, led by Julia, were superb x helpful quick and efficient in dealing with us all.
We chose the location to suit our family and were rewarded with a great setting, both internally and externally and we took away some great memories.
We are already considering a return visit for another family occasion soon!
Thank you all.

Oulton hall 10/10
Pros:

We recently enjoyed an overnight stay and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. The reception team gave us a warm welcome, making us feel at home as soon as we arrived

Our spa experience was delightful, peaceful, and incredibly relaxing. My treatment was exactly what I needed, and I highly recommend the Signature Spa Ritual—it was the perfect way to unwind.

Dinner in the Champagne Bar was ideal, as we were able to have our dog, Lily, stay with us. The stunning views over the golf course made the experience even more special.

A final mention goes to Hayley on the reception desk. She was always happy to make a fuss of Lily and regularly checked that we were enjoying our stay. Her friendly, thoughtful service really made a difference.

Thank you to the whole team for making our stay so memorable. We can't wait to return!

Spa treatment
Pros:

I had a wonderful spa experience. Haleema was really lovely—warm, welcoming, and made me feel completely at ease from the moment I arrived. I had the shoulder, neck, and scalp massage, and it was incredibly relaxing. I left feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Thank you, Haleema, for such a fantastic experience!

Amazing
Pros:

We had another wonderful stay at Oulton Hall. The hotel is absolutely stunning, with beautiful surroundings and a fantastic atmosphere that keeps us coming back.

A special mention goes to Hayley on reception, who assisted us with all of our planning from start to finish. She was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful, making everything so easy and ensuring our stay was perfect.

We originally stayed at the hotel for our honeymoon in 2022, and we've been coming back ever since. Every member of staff is genuinely warm and welcoming, and they always make us feel valued. We can't wait for our next visit!

Ok
Pros:

Location. Grounds. Reception staff.

Cons:

Too many ‘rules’ for the poor staff. Not enough staff. Not allowed to have drinks in certain glasses because they weren’t allowed to ….. very petty but not their fault. Slow service due to lack of staff. Restaurant and bar. Staff were very polite and kind but were under unnecessary pressure.

Relaxing stay
Pros:

Beautiful hotel, great location.
We stayed for two nights to relax and recharge.
We had two lovely dinners in the restaurant, and breakfast was also great.
Our room was comfortable and felt well cared for (except the negotiation required to encourage the loo to flush but we're now battle hardened to hotel plumbing so it didn't bother us too much).
The surroundings are very relaxing, lots of lounge areas, bars and terraces.
We don't play golf so were quite disappointed that although the website makes much of the opportunity to walk in the grounds, the paths only lead to the next tee and it's not long before someone shouts four! We asked for a map but drew a blank.
The swimming pool and spa are well kept and we enjoyed a relaxing afternoon.
Overall we would return and enjoy the Yorkshire welcome again

Robbie - exceptional service. Hotel decent but with some opportunities
Pros:

Bit of a mixed bag in terms of our stay. The fire alarm went off a couple of times overnight with us needing to evacuate and the staff at the hotel during this time were pretty unorganised, information given was sketchy and for the first evacuation there was no sign of a fire marshall etc. Also, an emergency exit door near our room was consistently left open and when we made reception aware they blamed guests for pushing the door open. We regularly saw contractors in the area so believe it more likely that they opened the door, but also the hotel could alarm or tag/seal the door as a deterrent - i would have expected a little more ownership to be honest.
The grounds and communal areas of the hotel are beautiful, the rooms I would say average but nice and clean, a bit dated and the bath/shower part of the bathroom would benefit from an update. The food was generally decent, although the eggs at breakfast weren't the best.
The staff were friendly and polite, most just going through the motions as you'd expect, but there was one clear standout. A waiter/butler called Robbie who served us food in the bar of the hotel gave exceptional service and really made us feel special and valued. He definitely deserves some form of recognition and we did highlight this to the hotel reception during our stay. We would return in spite of the issues, just for his service.

Robbie is WONDERFUL!
Pros:

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to Robbie for making our stay absolutely perfect. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic experience, and we can't thank him enough. His professionalism, friendly nature, and exceptional customer service truly stood out and made our visit so memorable.

We will definitely be returning, and Robbie is a big reason why. He's a real credit to the team!

Exceptional Stay
Pros:

What a wonderful stay at Oulton Hall Hotel. Despite there being multiple fire alarms throughout the night and during the day, I couldn't agree more that the staff on shift especially Antonia, followed their procedures and ensured everyone was safe. Food and Drink was immaculate. I will most certainly be retiring despite slight issues which can't be helped.
