Howfield Manor Hotel

Beautiful hotel, fabulous venue, rooms emacultate and comfortable. We organised an event in the marquee, perfect place for a wedding/event Kevin and Muriel are so accommodating and helpful. Staff are so friendly and cannot do enough for you. I would definitely recommend Howfield Manor and will be returning again.

My experience of howfield manor was just plain awful. I wanted to celebrate valentines and thought this place to be fantastic how wrong I was. I had booked a room and had also previously emailed to ask if I could order from main menu and if they did room service, I had confirmation that I could do both. Upon arrival I was told I couldn't order from main menu or have room service until 8pm. A bit late but we said we would look at menu and return. We went to our room and this was a small double there was a small desk so I asked did they bring a table we could eat at. I was told No. The manager asked what the issue was and we told him. He replied look at the menu decide what you want and I will ask if the chef can cook these for you. We went down at 5.40 to see if the chef would cook our choices or if we would have to eat out. We were told sit sit I tried to ask if the chef was prepared to cook our choices and the manager said yes he would sit her. Again I tried to say I'm not dressed or changed he said not to worry sit here. Here turned out to not even be in the restaurant. We were placed where the breakfast was set up was our romantic meal turned into a rushed affair that saw us back in our room by 7. The following morning at breakfast the food was lovely however when we went to get a pastry to eat with our coffee there was only one left, I asked the waiter for more and was told there may be a wait however he then informed us there would be no more pastries this was at 9 am. We left!!! We spent £200 to experience unyielding staff, a very hot room (couldn't open window as smoking area below) and inadequate breakfast a poor show by all and won't be returning.

Here for two nights whilst attending a wedding in petham So we only slept here and had two breakfasts which were delicious with a few nice unexpected additions like advacdo on sour dough with egg and onion it was really nice there was fresh porridge - pancakes etc all freshly cooked good hot coffee pots and tea etc Lovely grounds well kept Lots of outside sweating areas Large car park No lift to the upstairs bedrooms may be an issue for some. We had room 15 it was very clean well equipped tea coffee facility a fridge iron safe tv windows that open! Heating comfy bed BUT the shower over the bath was appalling no water pressure at all trickle of water 💦 unable to shower in it. Only a liquid soap supplied and a shower cap no other cosmetics🤷‍♀️
