Work trip in very hot weather...
Obviously too warm (English, we're never happy) but fan in room did help.
Enjoyed the evening meals, didn't do breakfast.
Wednesday night bar was quiet and it was nice to sit and read.
Thursday night... School Prom. Nice to see the hotel being utilised but there was no prior warning or designated area for paying guests.
Discussed with hotel & thank you for apologising and understanding my frustration.
Yes, I will book again if work brings me back this way.
Enjoyed the local (evening) walks and village as the additional facilities like Tesco's, pub and chippy

Arrived to some kind of rave going on, not what I was looking for in my relaxing evening stay, after checking in my room had no air conditioning and where it had been left with the windows closed and the curtains wide open it was around 40 degrees inside.
I came down later in the evening and was told the bar from the rave was now closed.
I wanted a cool coca cola and was told although the bar was literally there and the staff were all still here, that it was impossible to serve me a drink, despite the hot as hell room and no aircon. Hot Uncomfortable and horrible staff service. I could never advise anyone to stay here.

Breakfast was limited and not enough choice of cereals or fruit. No HOT water for a cup of tea. Tepid out of the coffee machine. No bin or any facilities to put tea bags or empty cereal boxes.
Room was very spacious and clean which as it was the signsture suit was what I expected. A fridge in the room would have been useful and a safe.

Excellent value for money

Doing an event in Bedford so stayed the night before. Very convenient location close to Bedford, very clean and excellent value for money. Staff were efficient and friendly. Even though there was a wedding with an evening DJ we had a room at the back of the hotel and were not disturbed by the disco. Great pub less than 10 minute walk away.

Characterful Hotel in lovely grounds, we stayed in the out building which was spacious and quiet.
Room was clean and tidy and so was bathroom.
Shower was warm with good pressure, our only concern was the floor tiles got very slippery when wet, care had to be taken!
The full English Breakfast was excellent and service was very good.
Would certainly recommend this hotel to friends and family.

Expected more

I feel disappointed with my stay as my basic room (advertised as budget room at other sites) I got. I had to move out of it due to a water leak in the building. The room that I was offered instead (after some persuasion with a member of staff) was nowhere near I asked for during the booking. It was far to close to the kitchen area, so noises of cooking/washing up was from 7AM till very late at night. Because the stand of the fan in my room was broken, I had to have the window open during the hottest days of the year yet.
I decided to move out sooner than booked for, despite being paid.

Signage required!

Would have been useful to know that major refurbishment was affecting the hotel & perhaps a sign directing people to the temporary entrance….didn’t affect us unduly as we literally just needed a bed for the night.

Wonderful Weekend Break

Me and my partner stayed here last weekend for 2 nights when we checked in we were greeted by Dan who is an amazing young man and should be definitely promoted to management , we were early but he checked to see if our room was ready for us, we went to the bar for lunch and he went to the kitchen to see what they didn’t have on menu to let us know, he was extremely friendly and was up for the laugh. That evening we ate in the restaurant followed by a few drinks in the bar, we were served by the manager bijay who was also very friendly and chatty, the breakfast was lovely everyday and staff were amazing , we will 1000% return here again in future.

Lovely Stay - Highly Recommended

A lovely property set in rural Bedfordshire. I arrived and checked in with ease and the staff are very friendly, polite and welcoming. Went to the bar, had food and drink and all was excellent tasting, and served in a good time.

The room was spacious, clean and comfortable.

All in all, a very lovely stay and would highly recommend this hotel.

Noisy compressor or something outside window which seemed to go on and off all night.

Whilst the hotel is a lovely building in nice grounds, the corridors to the room were extremely cold. Unfortunately so was the bedroom. There was no heating on. I used the plug in heater supplied to warm the room and it did, after 6hrs and time to wake up. I do not expect to have to use a hairdryer to warm the bedroom to get to sleep.

Nice stay, friendly staff.

Stayed there after a local event. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable though a bit dated and our room was missing a table. The room was huge, which was great but the small dated furniture made it look naked. Over all it was a very good experience so I would recommend. Ps. NOT a spa...

Things one should know: no elevator. You'll be hauling your bags up stairs...and upstairs... and then down to get to your room. On this visit we skipped the breakfast but we had it previously and it was wonderful. My brother-in-law booked an afternoon tea with us there last week. Maybe they were just too busy due to a wedding. They dropped the tea and goodies and never checked back. Our visit last week.... we had a clean room. This stay however: crumbs and a bobby pin on the floor and some remaining water in the kettle so it did not feel like a clean room. No air conditioning there either and one of the two windows was evidently broken because they put screws in the corners so that it could not be opened. It was a quiet place to sleep. The beds were not comfy but ok.

Woodland Manor night away

We stayed at the Woodland Manor for one night. Upon our arrival, we were greeted with the friendliest team of receptionists. Our room had great facilities and more than comfortable for a one night stay. A fire door alarm went off within the middle of the night however once again the team in reception were superb and quick to resolve the issue. Great stay, would definitely recommend if staying in Clapham or the wider Bedford area.

Disappointing stay

We have stayed at the woodland manor a few times now. The building itself is gorgeous, and has ample parking.

The issue we have is the beds and the bedding. Some of the beds (room 15 for example) need to be replaced urgently as they are simply broken.

The bedding itself is dreadful I am afraid, the pillows and duvet are clearly pokyesterr, so you just sweat all night and it’s impossible to sleep.

With a couple of new beds, and some new bedding in the rooms (like premier inn have for example) it would be an amazing place to stay. It’s such a shame.

Unfortunately my room was downgraded from my booking without any consultation. I would not have booked a box room in that hotel. It was small stuffy and inadequate for me. I was dismissed at reception saying all rooms are the same size just the number of beds.
It’s very shabby without the chic. Do not recommend or will use again

The Woodland Manor Hotel is set in beautiful grounds. Staff at reception were friendly. Our room was clean and spacious with both Bath and Shower. Unfortunately, there was no full length mirror and the Hot water tap needed a note of caution. It ran very hot.

Solo one night stay (01/03/24)

A surprisingly lovely hotel, that I wasn’t expecting for the price of £60 (no breakfast).
I looked at the pictures and for some reason expected the hotel to be in a more work state but I am glad to say I was wrong. Yes you can tell it’s used but it was not shoddy and immaculately clean.
It did seem to be run on a skeleton staff, however this did not detract from the service. The member of staff that greeted me and waited on me during my meal was an absolute delight and there are many who could learn from his customer service skills. I can’t recall his name unfortunately but he was from Nepal, and he could not have been more pleasant or welcoming. He is an absolute asset the this hotel.
The room was cosy and had a bath and shower, which was lovely and hot. The bed was very comfortable and the window opened nicely for some fresh air. I didn’t spot any air con as the heating was from a radiator, that was easily temperature controllable.
The TV was large enough but could receive too many channels (I could access the menu to retune it but I wasn’t too fussed).
All in all a lovely stay and the chap they checked me out early the next day was just as friendly.

Overnight business trip

The phone in my room didn't work so I had to go to reception to order room service.
The food was very bad. The chicken burger, was overcooked and inedible. The 'fries' were more like frozen wedges and didn't taste goon. No condiments were provided on the tray.
The breakfast buffet was poor with very little choice but the menu part of breakfast was decent.
The room was too hot and the bedding far too thick for the season. The room was OK but a little 'tired' and old.

Avoid Room 11 unless you like sleeping on concrete

I have stayed here a number of times, so in general the hotel is not bad. However on this occasion I stayed in room 11 and the bed was like a slab of concrete. I will avoid staying again if I can. If I cannot I will refuse to stay in room 11.
