Nice but a bit tired in places

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

williameV2213FP TripAdvisor review

Staff were lovely and always helpful. Food was good and plentiful, filling breakfast. The room was comfortable and clean, however was tired and needed freshening up (threadbare carpets in places, no fridge and the bathroom required updating as did the dining area). It's a nice place and we've stayed in worse but we've also stopped in a lot better for the price

Excellent Private Dining for a Christmas Work event

Delta F TripAdvisor review

Had our team Christmas meal in a private room for 24 of us. As ever the Bowden team didn’t disappoint. The two waiters were quietly efficient and cheerful. The room looked lovely The food was excellent, really big portions and everyone said how nice it was. They provided a decent speaker so we could play our playlist Stayed overnight and the room was beautifully comfortable with a nespresso machine Breakfast was really nice - proper mushrooms a really nicely cooked sausages. Lots of choice Will be back!!

Dear HorseMoleGilf, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 🎄 We’re delighted to hear that your team Christmas meal was such a success and that everything—from the private room and festive atmosphere to the food and service—hit the mark. It’s great to know our team made you feel well looked after, and that you enjoyed the generous portions, comfortable rooms, and those little touches like the Nespresso machine. We’re especially pleased breakfast set you up nicely the next morning (proper mushrooms and good sausages always help!). We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and look forward to welcoming you back again very soon. Kind regards Gavin and the team

We had a table for 10 booked in one of their lakeside pods as a Christmas gathering for friends. From initial booking with Chelsea, down to the exceptional waiting service with Joseph, the reservation has been fault free and seamless. Food was incredible and nothing was too much trouble. Perfect venue for a gathering!

Had a great works xmas party here. Food was lovely and staff very friendly and attentive . Breakfast the next morning was lovely too. Rooms and beds comfortable. Only area that needed improvement was time waiting at bar. Perhaps more staff required when large parties there.
