Things to do in Andover

My first time at Sopwell House and it was amazing. The food was delicious, the service was fantastic from all the staff, especially Quentin who went above and beyond. I can't recommend it enough. We will definitely be back!

We had a delicious 3 course lunch with bubbles. The staff were excellent and the ambience was relaxing

Had a lovely tea yesterday in such a beautiful setting. We decided to order one savoury (for which there was a very small additional supplement) and one traditional afternoon tea as we couldn't decide which to have! We really enjoyed both and shared them. The staff were very good and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Make sure you allow time to walk round the lovely grounds before or afterwards as parking is £4 for 8 hours so you may as well make a day of it!

Excellent, clear safety talks before boarding. Very smooth take off, and landing. Friendly staff, and pilot. Clear views made for a memorable experience .

I brought this experience for my husband’s 50th Birthday surprise. We had a fabulous stay, the staff were exceptional & really stand out, especially the restaurant manager (Ruby I think) who went above & beyond to ensure we had a wonderful evening, she is such an asset to the restaurant. Our food was delicious, wine was good & service impeccable. Our room was ok, we were hoping to be in the main building, it were in the Priory which is a separate building, the room needed a little TLC, especially in the bathroom, it was overall clean & comfortable with a beautiful window seat. We had a lovely stay.

Gift for our 25th Wedding anniversary, easy to locate and staff all helpful and friendly.

Had a long time wish to drive a land rover and I was not disappointed! When I saw the course, I didn't think it would be possible to drive this but with the excellent tuition from David, I got round pretty well. Would have liked in addition a slightly uneven track at the end to build up a bit of speed to get an overall experience of driving the vehicle. The test of driving through water and along logs was different and quite testing. Would recommend to others for a different driving experience!

The day out was great in all respects. But we had been given a gift and could choose anything up to the gift price. We knew we had to buy the experience before Sunday, but thought, due to all the BuyaGift pages saying, 'valid for a year', that once noted it was valid for a year. No. The experience had to be taken by the expiry date too and that's not made clear enough. Luckily we had decided to do it now so did not lose out. It costs £20 to extend the voucher. So I'd say, don't bother with an open voucher that can be used for anything, get the experience itself. Added to which, I was emailed a load of cheaper offers for the same experience but couldn't use them as I had been given a gift voucher. It was all a bit frustrating, but the day out, seeing the animals and tea were great.

the tour was perfect, good organized and a very nice speaker!

Excellent meal at the Savoy. Menu a little restricted only 3 options! Really tasty and well presented.

I can’t thank the staff at Rudding Park enough. From pulling in to the carpark on arrival to leaving and everyone in between. We had a lovely relaxed champagne afternoon tea and our waitress was very attentive and she explained the lovely food to us especially as I have allergies. We will certainly be returning and recommending Rudding Park Harrogate
