Positive: A masterclass in mid century hotel kitsch. A Georgian mansion house where every room is packed with quirky items and personal touches. The hosts are welcoming and quick to rerspond to requests for help or advice. The two huge drawing rooms are available for guests all day and tea and coffee is endless. Just help yourself! This invitaion extends to the bar. Make a note of what you take and pay later. An orangery is a bright welcoming space for complimentary breakfast. The gardens are well equipped for an afternoon's relaxing.
Negative: If you like Travelodges and Premier Inns Bowlish House is not for you. Corporate it is not. There is a surprise round every corner. You are part of the family, not part of the herd.
Summary: A film set for a Jane Austin movie with a family atmosphere.

Positive: This is a really great place. It is a beautiful building, furnished with imagination and character, with a really lovely garden. The whole place has a bohemian charm, wrapped up in Georgian splendour. But it is the people that make it so special. Maryanne is the consummate hostess - attentive yet discreet, friendly and professional, and brimming with enthusiasm. Nothing was too much trouble. The breakfasts were lovely and the details everywhere were fantastic. Bowlish House will not disappoint.
Negative: We loved everything about it.
Summary: A stylish and charming venue with a relaxed and friendly vibe.

Positive: This is an incredible venue, with an incredible, charming, friendly host. Thank you Maryanne for everything - you exceeded our expectations and made our Glasto weekend simply, perfect. Your house is stunning, extremely clean, very comfortable, full of character and full to the brim of those little details which can only put a smile on your face. Everything about our 3 nights stay at Bowlish House was perfect, from the moment we arrived until departure - we didn't want to leave!! Your breakfast was also incredible and more than perfect to set us up for a great day ahead, including the bottle of pink fizz which was always on ice and the wonderful company (other guests) around the breakfast table. The gardens of Bowlish are gorgeous, with potted flowers everywhere (big thanks to your dad!), the beds were amazingly comfy, the showers super hot. I could note rate this accommodation high enough and will probably never find anywhere like it again. My family and I will 100% be back. You are a super special host and should be very proud of yourself. Thank you for everything, we will see you again soon :)
Negative: There was absolutely nothing I didn't like or enjoy. Bowlish House is one in a million.
Summary: Incredible stay. Incredible host. We will 100% be back ASAP!!

Positive: The House is a beautiful old estate that has all the old charm and everything that goes with it. Beautiful features and architecturally original details that add to the charm. The best feature was the warm, attentive and lovely staff. They make you feel like home. Breakfast was a beautiful spread and we felt welcomed from the minute we drove into the property.
Negative: Floor boards are original so were creaky and loud, but again every this added to the charm. The House is very old so is not state of the art, but again adds to the charm
Summary: A charming home away from home with beautiful features and furniture through out.
