Excellent in every respect!
We visited Grinkle Park for a champagne afternoon tea to celebrate a 90th birthday. We had a really lovely time! The hotel itself is very interesting and everywhere is spotlessly clean. We were seated in the conservatory overlooking the gardens. The staff were welcoming , friendly and attentive. The food was excellent, plentiful and well presented . Extra tea and coffee was available if required. I would definitely recommend a visit! Thank you to everyone at Grinkle Park..

Lovely little gem
Booked this as a gift for my husband and we both went together.
Beautiful pod with its own fishing peg, clean and warm and so comfy, small fridge freezer, microwave, kettle and toaster and a little bit of storage space was absolutely perfect just for the night or possibly 2. Met the owners and they were absolutely lovely and really helpful couldn’t ask for more!
Toilet block was a very short walk away with a little washing up station they were absolutely immaculate. Would definitely recommend.

Great treat!
Lovely venue at Stan hill court although an extra supplement was needed above the price of the voucher. Good venue, good food and a free upgrade for a wedding anniversary although no reference to the anniversary and no other freebies which we usually get from
Other hotels! Menu wasn’t huge but the food was excellent and really well presented. Lovely location although you have to pay £10 for parking above the cost of the voucher and the extra charge!

Treatments heavenly!
The treatments (facial & Indian head massage) by Ruby was amazing. Just what was needed, I did not want it to end.
The rest of the facilities were great too and the lunch was incredible.
