Nice hotel and staff. Avoid the Bracken Suite (room 6) if you like to be asleep before midnight, the private dining room is directly under your bed and there is a door just below the room that the smokers use from the bar area, it gets propped open and then you get to join in with their conversation. If you sleep easily, it's a nice room. The grounds are lovely.

We had an intimate wedding ceremony and meal in September 2021 at The Dower House and couldn't recommend it enough. They went over and above to accommodate us, which included on the day adjustments for bad weather. All the staff were attentive and helped add to our perfect day. The meal was delicious, and everyone in our party enjoyed it, and they were able to make amendments for individual requirements (the bride was 6 months pregnant). We felt like the only people in the hotel (even though the hotel was fully booked).

We had our wedding there in May and it was absolutely stunning. The staff were friendly, the venue was gorgeous, and they did all the could to make it a special day for my new wife and I. Thank you everyone! It really was amazing.

As a wedding Celebrant, this was my first visit to Dower House Hotel. What a beautiful place it is & perfect for couples looking for a quiet, rural setting for their wedding. The outdoor ceremony was held in the lawned garden with a beautiful willow tree embracing an ornate gazebo type structure where our couple signed their certificate. It is fair to say, i fell in love with Dower House and am looking to return soon on a personal level. If you're considering a Celebrant for your wedding, vow renewal or baby naming then please check me out via Circle of Life East Anglia. It would be an honour.

Lovely overnight stay, close to all Woodhall Spa has to offer. The room was a good size with a big bed and bathroom with a bath and shower. Friendly bar staff in the evening and cheerful service from Chelsea at breakfast time. Thankyou

We chose the Dower House to host our wedding at the end of February. From our 1st visit with Carolyn we felt welcome and comfortable. Nothing was to much trouble throughout the build up and the food tasting was amazing. We stayed over the evening before the wedding and the team all took time to introduce themselves. The wedding day was perfect with everything running smoothly and on time thanks to Carolyn, Max and the whole team. The food was amazing and the team made it a day we will never forget. Thank you all so much for our perfect day. Tim and Micheala Wattx xx
