Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Stayed at the Woodlands for a friend's wedding. Overall, the hotel was a big disappointment. The shower in our room ran cold and we never had hot water. The fridge did not work so we had no cold drinks in our room. The breakfast was another disappointment - the scrambled egg was undercooked and the bacon and sausage was cold. Staff were apologetic, but the damage was done.

We held our wedding here on 07/08/22 and all I can say is if you are considering this venue then do it - you won’t regret it! Firstly, thank you to Jessica for all of your wedding planning and help which guided me smoothly to arrange a wedding in just 15 weeks! There’s is no question that I couldn’t ask. And the menu tasting (included) was a fabulous experience meaning that there were so many possible options for the big day. The day itself ran exceptionally and ALL of the staff could not have done enough! Secondly, thank you to everyone who worked on and who was involved with that day. You all adhered to every single request like it was zero effort and went above and beyond in all aspects. Finally, thank you to Marc the toastmaster. Your hosting skills and manner was nothing

Me and my new husband got married here at the end of July. I would just like to thank you and Marc for making mine and Scott's day so special. Nothing was to much trouble, it really was perfect. All the guests enjoyed themselves and there were so many comments on the beautiful venue, and quite right. I would highly recommend go anyone!

My husband and I were lucky enough to be invited to Zoe and Scott's wedding on Friday. It was such a wonderful day, I can't remember a better day. The location was stunning, even the weather was perfect. Although we arrived an hour early and staff were busy with preparations they were very welcoming and made us tea and found some biscuits, we relaxed in one of the lovely lounges until the other guests started arriving when we joined them in the bar. The service was in a beautiful room decorated with blossom trees and a stunning view out over the terrace and gardens, it was perfect. After the service we were all ushered onto the terrace where staff served drinks and canapes, the staff were very friendly and continued to serve even though everyone moved down two flights of steps

Having held our wedding at this beautiful venue in 2017, I did not hesitate to recommend it to my employer when looking for a perfect venue for a "Spring Fling" event to bring all our colleagues together after lockdown. The venue itself is captivating, and the newly built Orangery is every bit as beautiful and spectacular as the previous Marquee was. I made contact with Abbigail (who I was delighted to find remembered us from our wedding - we were her first wedding when she joined the hotel!) and she worked with me to coordinate all aspects of our works event, accommodating requests and queries in relation to the menu and dietary requirements, and to ensure every little detail was in place and the event was expertly coordinated from first enquiry through to the event itself.

Beautiful venue. Wonderful day was had. Great evening wedding party. The night staff would not get us a taxi to take us to where we were staying. Saying that if you are not staying at the hotel after midnight you CANNOT get a taxi from them. They provided us with a phone number of a taxi service, which we had to dial ourselves. The night person named Kirsty was very rude and abrupt with her behaviour towards the non residents of the hotel. Such rude actions were not necessary. The majority of the wedding party were staying there, so did not see what the issue was

Thank you for providing a review. We are very happy you had a wonderful day at the wedding you attended with us. However, we deeply apologise in regards to the behaviour of our night team. We pride ourselves on providing a high standard of customer service at all times, so we are sorry this was not meant at the end of your evening. This has been internally dealt with and we thank you for highlighting this to us. Kind Regards Alice, Reception Manager
