Heythrop Park Hotel
The Heythrop Park Hotel is a beautiful.and extensive hotel. Meals in the Brasserie 32, The Market Kitchen and The Travelling Duke was superb except for 1 steak which was chewy and fatty in the latter. The Brassiere 32 is situated in the old manor house and is absolutely beautiful. Service was variable in the Travelling Duke. We were very disappointed with the lunchtime offering of food, particularly on our arrival day. We had had a longish journey after an early breakfast so were looking forward to a substantial sandwich and side salad. The Travelling Duke was closed so we walked on to The Brasserie bar, the menu there mostly consisted of chips, sausage rolls and scotch eggs, not what we wanted so we continued into The Orangery, again no ordinary sandwiches, just toasties scones and cakes. There was a prawn marie-rose wrap, which I ordered. The sauce was very spicy and looked and tasted more like curry, not marie-rose sauce. I was offered an alternative because I couldn't eat the wrap so I had a cheese toastie which was nice enough. The entertainment was very good and we loved the quizzes with Ryan, he has a dry sense of humour and kept us well entertained with his ready wit and is certsinly a big asset to the team at Heythrop. Incidentally he also took groups round the hotel's extensive grounds and imparted lots of information plus did a talk about Heythrop Park Hotel which we sadly missed. The leisure facilities were very good at this hotel, can't wait for the pool and spa area to be connected to the hotel as it's due to be in a few months. Loved the pool and Jacuzzi, used each day of our break,even though it was a mission to get there from the south wing room we stayed in. Disappointed not to have an opening window in our room, it was sweltering when we arrived and we ended up switching off the heating altogether for most of the time, we hated having a room that did not feel aired, even though it was a lovely, comfortable room. A big shout out to Housekeeping who found and are keeping some items for us that we inadvertently left in a drawer. Did feel storage to be insufficient for our needs. No bedside drawer and just 2 drawers under wardrobes space. Felt we couldn't keep the room.as tidy as we would have liked, nowhere to put our cases etc. We did however have a lovely stay and will return.
