Guests have praised its cleanliness, historical charm, and the thoughtful touches such as a welcome hamper.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Guests consistently commend the property for its spotless condition, with numerous mentions of its cleanliness contributing to a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

The location is celebrated for its brilliant views and peacefulness, with the property being set in beautiful parkland. However, some guests noted the challenge of accessing nearby facilities, slightly impacting the score.

The property is frequently described as comfortable and cozy, with a warm atmosphere. A few guests mentioned the distance between the bathroom and bedroom as a slight inconvenience.

While the property's facilities are generally well-received, there are occasional comments on maintenance issues such as lighting and appliance malfunctions, which suggests room for improvement.

The welcome hamper and other extras are frequently appreciated by guests, indicating a high level of thoughtfulness. However, it is politely noted that such gifts, while common, are not guaranteed for every stay.

Situated on the far side of the Estate, its top floor sitting room looks over 'Capability' Brown’s stunning 18th century parkland and is within walking distance of the onsite Grill and Deli.

This stunning Victorian Hunting Lodge is a luxury self-catering bolt hole affording privacy for a relaxing break away.

Set over three floors, leading up to the top floor sitting room with panoramic views over historic parkland, the Tower combines all the home comforts that you would expect but in a unique historic hideaway.

There are also times of the year where no events take place on the Estate so please click here to take a look at the calendar – you may even be planning to come along to one!

    After reminiscing about our delightful stay at Diane of Temple in Weston Park a few years ago, we couldn't resist the allure and decided to return. This time, opting for a different property, the serenity and charm continue to captivate us, creating an atmosphere of pure tranquility. It's truly a peaceful retreat that allows us to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the surroundings.
