"I cannot fault Bowood at all - we had our wedding reception there on Saturday 11th September 2021 and it was just the most wonderful experience. From meeting the events planner to the host on the day, everything was impeccable!"

Laura Veale (Google Review)

"We were married at Bowood in 2022, but had the chance to participate in a wedding in March this year. The hotel is marvelous, the room where we attended the wedding was the same we knew. The service was exceptional and the reception went on into the wee hours."

Aaron B Cain (Tripadvisor Review)

"Stayed at Bowood Hotel for my son's wedding. The venue was perfect in all respects, staff very professional and most helpful nothing too much trouble. The accommodation was of the highest standard and the food was first class. After the wedding ceremony, we all went to the House for Dedication of the wedding. I could not fault Bowood Hotel"
