We recently held my mum's 90th birthday party at the Dovecliff Hall hotel. We had Sunday lunch and booked the room for the rest of the afternoon so the guests could mingle, chat and catch up. The food was awesome and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. I would absolutely recommend the hotel for anyone else who's looking to hold a private party. No negatives at all. A fabulous experience. Thank you.

Our family celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary yesterday (2 April) at Dovecliff Hall. The staff could not have done any more to make the occasion special. All the serving staff were very pleasant and helpful in serving a large party with a full menu. The food itself was excellent and everyone enjoyed the meal and the setting, both the spacious room and the garden view. Although we didn't have a private room, we felt quite comfortable enjoying the occasion among ourselves. Thank you all very much. The Barber family.

Fantastic 3 night stay at Dovecliff Hall, we stayed for a wedding and a 80th birthday dinner. The room was very comfortable and looked after very well by Sarah the housekeeper. Food was delicious during the stay, and the celebrations we attended were both excellent. Luke and all the team go out of their way to make everything perfect.

We've just had the most amazing afternoon tea here at Dovecliff Hall. The food was amazing. Jordan looked after us so well, making sure my lovely mum was comfy enough and thoughtfully got her a cushion for her. back. Nothing was too much trouble. It was so lovely we didn't want the afternoon to end. We will definitely be back and so recommend here to anyone else who wants a real treat. You will certainly be treated very well. Well done Jordan, you made our afternoon

We held our daughters wedding here on 4th September and it was fabulous. The food throughout was amazing and the drinks flowed freely. Staff were attentive without being obtrusive. The Hall and grounds were just beautiful and made a perfect backdrop to the wedding. Thanks to everyone for making it such a special day.

We had a more expensive room. Plenty of space with good views of the garden and countryside. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Room was clean with a nice firm bed and good quality sheets. The food was certainly good, 4 out 5 stars, but a superior alternative would require at least a 10-15 minute drive, and we wanted to chill out and enjoy the venue, so eating in was fine for us.
Would make a fabulous venue for a medium/large function. We felt the prices were set very fair for what we enjoyed. This is our second stay and we will be going back next year.
