Close House

We were given a room in the Courtyard area. The 'bedroom' was on 3 levels with the bedroom itself, then a seating area and TV down a small flight of stairs, and the bathroom below that. It was exceptionally designed and finished accommodation in a quiet location in the grounds. The bed was very comfortable. However, we found the pillows too soft and they offered very little support. Also, I was too hot in the night due to the all seasons duvet. We could have kept the air con on all night I suppose! You might want to request a different room if you have any mobility issues too. Breakfast was good, with orders made from the breakfast menu. A small buffet with fresh fruit and pastries might have been a nice addition though. I think there's still room for improvement, but with a few tweaks this could have been a perfect stay. It still gets 5 stars from me for the quality of the accommodation and the location of the hotel.

If you’re looking for a top class hotel with excellent service in an amazing location. Then Close House is definitely the perfect place to stay. Everything about this place is truly fantastic. The accommodation, food and service is incredible. And if you’re a golfer you have the added bonus of 2 wonderful golf courses. Quite simply a fantastic place to visit and stay. And a huge thank you to the brilliant staff.

lovely night away with my partner—this place is an absolute gem and deserves to be fully booked every night! The fillet steak was hands down the best I’ve ever had. Our room was spotlessly clean, the bed incredibly comfy, and the overall atmosphere so relaxing. The staff were fantastic—attentive, friendly, and genuinely made us feel welcome. Everything is set in beautiful, peaceful grounds that make the perfect backdrop for a romantic escape. For £200 we got dinner, bed, and breakfast (we did upgrade our dinner), and even with drinks, we only spent an extra £100—amazing value for such quality. If you’re looking for a romantic night away, this place is a must-visit!

Fabulous service and standards - we were make to feel so welcome. We stayed in The Pavilion - every single member of the team was so friendly and professional, from the call we got half and hour after booking to take us through our preferences to the lady serving us in the restaurant. The accommodation was just beautiful - you felt like you were in the middle of nature and the standard was exceptional and wonderfully clean. Not often I immediately think about going back somewhere.

Fantastic stay at Close House. Highly recommended. Room was beautiful, bathroom amazing! The food was lovely. Recommend the cheese soufflé and the sharing steak. Breakfast was spot on. All the staff are so friendly. Cannot wait to go back.

Stayed for one night just wanted a peaceful break and had an excellent experience. The grounds were beautiful and very well maintained. We stayed in the chesterfield suite and the room was immaculate and cozy. They provided chocolate and strawberries as we were celebrating a big birthday which was a lovely surprise on arrival. Our evening meal was delicious and very filling and the service was great. Felt very safe and comfortable as well as being very quiet so great to get away to relax. No complaints from our stay and will definitely be returning.
