The approach to this hotel was through a beautiful wildflower meadow and there were numerous staff on the door with photos of guests to welcome them. This is a contemporary hotel in a Georgian mansion, which opened in 2010. It aims for the ultra-luxury market and has a ratio of 4 staff to each guest. There are 30 bedrooms in the mansion and 39 bedrooms in the stables and is always full at the weekends with leisure guests. A feature of the bedrooms is a free-standing copper bath. There are two polo pitches which are managed by the Guards Club, so that attracts leisure bookings when there are matches between April-September. Mondays-Thursdays are best for residential groups and any booking for 6+ rooms attracts a group rate. The property can be hired exclusively, except for the spa which has a local membership.
Coworth has four meeting rooms. The two largest rooms are in the main building and are always used together, both are the same size (100 theatre-style), but the one is needed for catering. They are white/neutral in style and have access to the garden so there is lots of natural daylight. The Oak Room is smaller and can be used for meetings or private dining as it has access to the restaurant.
Restaurant Coworth Park serves contemporary British food and there is a conservatory which can be used for private dining for 20 people. There is a second restaurant, the Barn, which is more casual in style and has a mezzanine floor which can be used for groups.
Team building includes a polo masterclass, riding, dressage and show jumping in the hotel’s 240 acres. There is a spa and pool located away from the main house.
Considerations
39 bedrooms are converted from stables, four rooms to each mini block. It is only a couple of minutes from the main house and there is a buggy service, as well as umbrellas everywhere.
