The Grove Hotel – Spa and Golf

Amazing surroundings! Play golf, sleep, eat, but there’s more. Had a meal in the Glasshouse and a Mocktail that was truly delicious. The strawberries I had there were so deliciously sweet and juicy. The buffet was a delight, and the dessert selection was so yummy. Didn’t spend the night so can’t comment on the bedroom experience but I imagine it would have been superb. Can’t wait to go again…

I traveled over 40 miles just for THE GROVE — and it was worth every mile. We went for the lunch buffet at The Glasshouse at The Grove Hotel, and I can honestly say: SECOND TO NONE. 👍 From the moment we arrived — starting with the valet — every staff member we met was warm, professional, and welcoming. The service was truly top-notch. As soon as we sat down, a lovely waitress greeted us with a glass of Prosecco as a welcome drink — such a nice touch! Now let’s talk about the food — extraordinarily superb. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of rich flavors. You could taste the quality in every bite. (Especially my favorite: the Japanese selection — fresh sashimi! Mwah mwah! 🍣) And last but not least… a must-have: the huge variety of dreamy, sweet desserts. (That’s honestly all I had — and yes, I took photos!) A fantastic experience all around. I’d rate this 7 stars if I could. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommend!

We spent the May Bank Holiday with my family at the Grove - its only 1h away from central London. ||The facilities and garden areas are stunning. We had a lovely weather so we enjoyed the heated outdoor pool. ||We rented bike with the kids and did a big your around the hotel it was super convenient and a super family experience. ||My toddler also enjoyed the daily kids activities including yoga and cake decorating.||Two negative points to our stay:|- Although stunning, our room was small for a family of four. We took the children toys pack and my boys loved it. ||- As the hotel is open to the public, we had to book any restaurants ahead and as we are busy Londoners with two kids we did not and ended up struggling to find a spot to eat. ||I gave feedback to the management as this is not acceptable for a five stars hotel. ||The food was excellent everywhere we ate - however I dont think the buffet is worth the hype and cost.

We had a truly wonderful stay at The Grove. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, professional, and incredibly accommodating. Special thanks to the culinary team who went above and beyond to ensure my daughter, who has multiple severe food allergies, was not only safe but thoroughly enjoyed her meal. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and tailored with such care, it really made our visit feel special. The grounds are stunning, the atmosphere is relaxed and every detail is thoughtfully considered. We felt genuinely looked after throughout our visit. Highly recommend for families, food lovers, and anyone looking for a memorable, five star experience.

We have loved the breakfast buffet food so had to try the dinner buffet. |The selection of different dishes was exceptional, every piece was delicious and everything was beautifully presented. We made use of the fresh dishes cooked in front of you by their friendly chefs. I would have loved to say I sampled every dish but I simply couldn’t eat anymore. We had booked dinner to celebrate our anniversary and as a nice touch we were presented with a little plate with selection of deserts and a happy anniversary chocolate. |The only minor change I would make is, the table we were seated at was too close to other guests. To get to my seat I had to squeeze in between the two tables and pretty much brushed my dress on their food. When you pay a lot of money to eat here you do not expect this and to feel rude that you can very clearly hear their conversations. |I would go back but preferred the breakfast buffet.

Heck, it's a five star place with 5 star service. If you want to relax, eat well and feel that there is some peace you can find in this world then stay here! We were given an overnight stay gift from our son (he wanted to thank us for our support last year when he had open heart surgery) and we happen to choose a sweltering weekend where we could take advantage of all the 'stay cool and be comfortable' facilities that The Grove has top offer. Our stay was memorable so maybe yours will be too.

My wife and I spent Easter long weekend at The Grove and had a wonderful time. We stayed in theur Classic Room, which was spacious and comfortable. We spent most of our time outside the rooms though, enjoying the many activities they had on offer. In the three days we spent there, we did archery, axe throwing, we rented e-bikes for a couple of hours and took golf lessons. The biking was the highlight, amongst the pretty woods on the property and then alongside the union canal and in the adjacent park. Most of the property is occupied by the golf course, which looked quite busy as well. We at some good food as well: Madhu's has great Indian food, the Turkish pop-up restaurant Skewed was amazing and The Stables was decent (the pub is better than the restaurant). I'd recommend ordering breakfast in the room, for which an order of up to £28 per person is considered the same as taking the buffet at the Glasshouse (I'd avoid that, especially at busy times). Finally, a hotel highlight was the Afternoon Tea,which had a great selection of teas, the food was pretty good and the atmosphere was amazing. Overall, food was good and we quite enjoyed the activities but a staycation here can get quite expensive so I'd definitely recommend planning it all in advance to understand the full costs. A couple of other things to flag. This is a family friendly spot and there were a lot of young kids, which can make it quite chaotic. Also, their reservation system for the food and activities is quite bad: there's no centralization, there are different systems and people to reach out to for the food and the activities and once you book one, there's no way for you to know. They could really use an IP upgrade and a guest app.

Wow!! What an amazing place 😍 . Grounds are breathtaking. Went for dinner at the glasshouse restaurant, at the grove. The buffet was absolutely amazing. Cooking stations for fresh pasta, Asian, Indian and even a roast dinner. The dessert station was spectacular. All the desserts were hand-made to a very high standard. I would highly recommend going to the glasshouse. It is pricey, but you definitely get what you pay for.

Here for a business dinner at a restaurant there called Madhu's at the grove. Beautiful resort with nice grounds. Great little bar for drinks and dinner was Outstanding. We went with the chefs tasting menu and it was spectacular.

Absolutely lovely experience! This was a great countryside getaway. I stayed here for a work trip and would come back as a guest. The staff was very kind. The grounds are beautifully kept and great for walking around. The restaurants on property are beautifully designed and super yummy!

This is THE TREAT of a night out. Lovely food. You might see someone famous especially if you know your Football players and American Football players.

This is rated a 5 star hotel. After my stay here, I would say that is close, but not exactly a 5 star. To go more in detail.... this review was based on a rather lengthy stay, something out of the ordinary for a normal hotel stay and a "real" test of how good a hotel is. The longer the stay, the more you notice the little intricacies and problems that you might not normally see in a short stay. I stayed at the Grove for 2 months due to a work situation. Below is how I would rate the various parts of my stay: The Grounds: Beautiful. Definitely the best part of staying here. Being a big city person and staying at a hotel with lovely greenery and wilderness surrounding was a nice change. Location: A bit of a disappointment. There is not much close you can do if you don't have a car or are willing to pay for an uber taxi. It would be nice if there were some restaurants nearby within walking distance that weren't part of the hotel. Internet: Horrible, slow, and sheer frustration. When trying to do anything that needs internet speed (watching a movie, playing a game, and sometimes even browsing the net), you will be surely disappointed by the slowness and frequent disconnecting from the internet wifi. Plugging a cable directly into the ethernet port in the wall changes nothing, as the speed often is even more slow than the wifi. Reception often told me that it would be fixed. I stayed there 2 months and it never was. For a 5 star hotel, that is unacceptable. Facilities: Excellent, with some minor downsides. The gym and indoor pool are great benefits of staying. However, the hours of operation are often are pain. Most people will go to the gym very early or very late. Unfortunately, the gym just doesn't open early enough or stay open late enough to compensate that if you are working while staying here. Same with the pool (and honestly I don't really understand why teenage lifeguards are necessary for a pool that is not even deep enough to drown in). Pricing on Hotel Luxuries/Food: Way overboard. Meals are insanely priced, pretty much anywhere you go. Drinks at the bar will rob you blind. I guess this is part of the 5 star experience. I had the lovely experience of someone charging drinks to my room without my signature and it went straight to my credit card. Had I not caught it and complained I would have never noticed. Housekeeping: Great, but sometimes borderline annoyance. Personal items being moved around everyday when I keep moving them back... Items lost when I left my hotel room for a day, with the hotel insisting they don't have it. Overall, worth the stay.... probably best if it is a shorter one and not so long. But you should expect to break the bank if you do.

Been here on numerous occasions for family celebrations. We always eat in the Glasshouse restaurant as it's in a great setting with great food, but very unpretentious. The selection of food is always great, the sushi bar being a highlight. The dessert always go down well too and there's something different every time.

Crkey - where do you start? It is impossible to tie down the experience of The Grove. Is it a five star hotel spa? Is it a championship playing golf course? Is it a fine dining experience? Is it a set of beautiful country gardens? In fact it is all of these and much much more. The England football team don't train here because they scrimp on the style and feel. We have eaten at one of the three restaurants on a few occasions and it is always good for a bit of star spotting. The Glasshouse is the least showy of the three - an all you can eat buffet experience with simply the most stunning starters and deserts. The selection of main courses (game, fish etc) are also very good but probably the supporting act rather than the star. Drinks are expensive - an antidote to the fairly priced meals - but staff are attentive and friendly at all times. Have also popped by with visitors for afternoon tea on the terrace to watch the golfers go by. Again, lovely stylish grounds and reasonable prices on the drinks and cakes. Most certainly a venue if you want something different. The perfect break from London, but still close to London.

Came for the founders forum. The grounds are stunning! Couldn't have chosen a better venue for this!

I have been here several times for various meetings and events and to enjoy the facilities and have a loyalty card. I must say the pool is a great place to relax and unwind-no chlorine but salty. The jacuzzi is a full room and an unusual design. The Grove is set in a huge golf course complex and is the host of many sporting events so don't be surprised to see many celebs here. But it doesn't come cheap-I took my in laws here for the 40th wedding anniversary in one of the restaurants and while the staff were helpful I didn't think the cost merited the quality of food on offer so was a bit disappointed.

Ate in the Glasshouse. Really good quality food. Wife loved the desserts. £35 eat as much as you like. Drinks are really expensive.

not the cheapest place, but as the old saying goes you get what you pay for. excellent ground. lots of things to keep kids happy and good for romantic weekends.

Didnt know this would be on here, but we went here for our works Christmas do (i know ages ago, but still) We had the lunch time buffet in the GlassHouse and it was lovely. Service was great and the food was delicicous. The noodle area, or oriental bar was lovely with fresh cooked food and you could make up what you wanted really. Was expensive, but was deffinately worth it. The staff were all lovely and could not do enough for you.

The quality and service that the Grove hotel provide are unreal they have a hand made beach, bikes to rent out to ride around the complex and enjoy the golf course the food is great definately worth its money.
