Buckland Manor in Tewkesbury

We have been to Buckland Manor many times over the years. It used to be wonderful, unfortunately not any more. Ludicrously small portions and poor quality food in order to save money. Even the petit fours have been reduced from three to two - what has gone - not the fudge or the jelly but the more expensive chocolate.

There are many hotels both in and around Broadway. I would definitely give Buckland Manor a miss. The food was just very average and very expensive. We had two glasses of white wine and stupidly asked for a recommendation. The waiter gave us his recommendation and we went with that. He did not mention the cost. When we got the bill we were fairly shocked to find that two glasses of 175ml white wine cost £21.50 each plus 10% service charge, £23.65 each glass £47.30 for two glasses of wine. This place is a complete rip off. We were not surprised the place was almost empty. Avoid at all costs. It will certainly cost you! We would never go there again on principle and would not recommend it to anyone else. We will be putting several reviews about this place on social media. Try the Broadway Hotel, the Lygon Arms, the Dormy or the Fish instead. They are all far superior.

Lunch reservation made in December for the 15th January. Received a call a week before to inform me that the restaurant would be closed! Lounge / bar food only to be served! Voiced my annoyance. Arrived as planned: we were the only people dining. Food was nicely presented but average flavour. Chef swore in the public area! Not at all impressed!

A lot of the surrounding areas have much less foot fall as there are less tourists, but the manor house is so inviting and festive this time of year especially with all the open fireplaces. Its always best to book in advance both rooms and tables this is a popular establishment for good reason. Merry xmas. I have had nothing but good dinning at the Manor and the atmosphere is a lot calmer being off the more trodden path. As the summer flowers finish at the end of summer the autumn show of fungi is just starting. And as the Cotswolds have some really old woodlands they also have a very varied display of fungi. This recent deluge of rain hails a good show. Don't leave it too long or the restaurateurs will have beaten you you it and there will be nothing to photograph. We called here for luncheon after a long morning. It was the 3rd day of sunshine in a row so we chose a table on the terrace without shade near enough to the wisteria to catch its scent on the breeze all afternoon. The food was impeccable and the staff were polite, friendly and engaging. We didn't stay overnight so can't comment on the rooms, but the manor house is a well kept example of the local architecture and the decor is well kept. The gardens look amazing especially with all the rain this spring, the gardeners have been very busy. The formal gardens lead upto a nice walk in a natural broadleaf woodland up the hill with some beautiful views of the surrounding area. I highly recommend you visit but book in advance as it is obviously very busy. A nice way to treat yourself

We were very excited to go to this restaurant as part of out stay at Buckland Manor Hotel (separate review for that experience). The ambience is quintessential Cotswolds charm. One is presented with wine lists and menus to peruse and they then take your order in one of the delightful lounges before ushering you into the beautiful dining room. A carpeted, elegant room which allows for a delightfully quiet dining experience - rare these days in many places with hard furnishings, loud (awful) music and raucous clientele. What unfolded however did not meet expectations. The menu was limited, consisting of 4 options for each of the 3 courses on offer. There were 4 of us so we sampled everything on offer. It was all excellent in terms of taste, BUT the food was tepid at best and the portion sizes ludicrously small - especially for the price. I thought perhaps we had ordered from the children’s menu, but these portions would not have been enough food to satisfy even a child. The service was also rather limited. There were only three other tables of guests and the 3 waiters were nowhere to be seen much of the time. This left us to pour our own drinks and at one point having to wait for a waiter to appear so we could get the remaining white wine served - they had not left the bottle near our table for us to help ourselves. The cheese course was supposed to feature 6 cheeses but only 5 were presented as the 6th had run out and no substitute was offered - the price didn’t change despite the depletion. This restaurant and chef may well be dreaming of a Michelin star but they need to meet some standard of excellence in value for money ad well as taste of food. This might be the first time you need to bring a doggy bag of food with you into the restaurant as you will definitely not have food left on your plate to warrant leaving with one.

My partner and I had Sunday lunch at Buckland Manor today with 4 close friends , everything was perfect, the location, setting, service, magnificent food, this is a very special place I would highly recommend

We have been visiting the restaurant for 10 years or more and in all that time have been very happy with the offering. However, all things must change it seems and a new chef is possibly chasing a Michelin star? Food quality remains excellent (possibly better) but the portion sizes are far too small. Fortunately, we were not staying overnight at the Manor so could raid the fridge on returning home! As it stands the meal was nowhere near value for money. Doubt we will return until the next ‘change’ occurs. Sad as the Cotswold’s needs good quality restaurants, not Michelin star establishments.

Lovely location but when we visited and had a meal we were not so impressed. We visited with friends on a Sunday and I and some of the others choose the beef and the rest chose fish. The fish course was lovely and everyone enjoyed it throughly, however the beef was a different matter. It was so tough I couldn't cut it and niether could anyone else who ordered it in our party. When I alerted a member of staff about this I was offered a sharper knife! I don't feel that this was an appropriate response and it was clearly an issue with other people as well as I noticed several tables sent there beef back to the kitchen. It's a shame as the other meals were lovely but the meal was let down by the beef and the way the staff handled it. For the price of the food they should do alot better.

My friend and visited Buckland manor Hotel for Lunch in November. We had pre- dinner drinks of which the waitress give us one small bowl of crackers not a generous amount at all and very little choice at all. For Lunch no apertizer as the couple on the next table had.The main meal consisted. One small carrot and small pot of mashed potatoes,and the lamb was so thin it was more like a child's portion. My friend didn't like carrots so asked for a replacement vegetable she was presented with a small bowl of uncooked vegetables of which they charged £18 outrages.The dessert was nice but had to ask for more cream. The whole experience was so disappointing and cost £151. I had stayed in this hotel before and the standard was very high. But now standard rating and expensive. The staff needed more training and would look better in smarter clothes. Would not return again.

The staff were incredible and the service was lovely, however for the price the food it was very minimal, especially compared to other restaurants with the same rating. I had salmon and cucumber starter which was very plain and basic, the cod for main was cooked lovely however was very minimal as it came with thin sliced courgette and nothing else. We were disappointed as the food did not match the rosette standard we wanted. We were also disappointed as in our booking we stated it was a birthday but no happy birthday was given to us as we have seen in other reviews. Average for the cost but the staff were absolutely incredible. We won’t return.

We dined here for dinner twice while staying at Buckland Manor, and also had breakfast there both mornings. It was excellent all the way! Friendly professional service in a beautiful manor house room with Michelin star worthy food. The citrus-cured salmon and local tomoto salad were both delicous first courses; one night the saddle of venison was as good as it gets with its unctuous sauce and multi-layered potato accompaniment. I would have had it a second night if it was on the menu! Instead, my wife and I both loved the pesto gnocchi, house-made at a slightly larger size; soft and delectable. Reasonably priced nice wine list; we enjoyed Rhone rouge selections both evenings. Cocktails first in the adjoining drawing room. Full breakfast was included with our room. We loved the delicous scrambled eggs with bacon, local sausage, etc as well as the sourdough bread with nice preserves. What a lovely restaurant! Highly recommend!

2408 Visited for afternoon tea. We had a wonderful time in a wonderful room. Anyway, the portion was huge and I was full quickly, but when I asked for the bill, I was asked if I wanted to take it home, so I was able to pack it up in a box and take it home. When I paid at the reception desk, I asked for a taxi and it arrived in about 10 minutes, which was very helpful.

My father came to this hotel with his first wife, who is lovely, multiple times around 1990-1993. He described it as warm, charming and home-y while still being very luxurious in an English-Country-House style. When I told him I was coming to visit a friend living in Coventry he decided to treat me and her to a night and dinner at Buckland Manor. It was everything and more of what he told me. Even the lowest room category will allow you to live a full English-Country-House experience. The prices are high but so is the level of service and dedication. We are now considering to rent out this property for his 70th birthday and thus I can only recommend it!

We were here for the Champagne afternoon tea. The food was good, but it lacked the sparkle we were hoping for. The staff forgot we had booked the champagne option. When the champagne eventually arrived they poured us all a glass, then forgot about it (left it in a cooler on the other side of the room). We even had to ask for cream to go with our scones... it took about 10 minutes to come out, but then they rushed to each table providing cream, so I assume they'd forgotten cream for all tables.

First visit Great ambience soft music well presented hotel on first expression fabulous grounds outdoor seating. Lots of staff on hand Tidy car park grand entrance. The food. As a vegetarian only one starter and one main! Crackers and olives served with our drinks. Great start! Extensive wine list and prices to match one small glass of nytimber fizz £14 ridiculous I did enjoy there complementary muse Bouches adapted for me as a veggie! Starter I had the heritage tomatoes v nice but dry a sauce would have helped I did try a little of nubby sauce he had on his salmon starter which was delicious. Main I had another starter which was cauliflower in a purée bit like baby food with chilli quite tasty but requested bread to mop it up! Wasn’t going to waste it, hubby had lamb not much of it And mostly fat and tough hardly any veg. Pre desert was pleasant unexpected and filling Their raspberry soufflé was delicious. So was a expresso martini, BUT AT £230 = 3 starters -one main -one pudding - 3 glasses of wine - one bottle of water - one expresso martini - prob wouldn’t return

Had afternoon tea for 2 and tea and biscuits for one with my parents, very underwhelming awful value for money. The room we were in was drab, no atmosphere with worn uncomfortable chairs - no tablecloths on a coffee table. Tea was weak. Welsh rarebit on cheap soggy bread - tasteless. ‘Sausage roll’ lacked flavour and seasoning. Sandwiches were sparse. Egg mayo, roast beef and mayo and smoked salmon and …mayo. One finger each per person on cheap thick supermarket bread. Fruit scones ok but fruit on outside so burnt -nothing inside, didn’t bother eating the plain ones, cakes- Chou bun and pana cotta was nice, everything else all sugar and no flavour. Worth £38 no!!! Glad I didn’t pay as was a gift. Staff were pleasant but not very attentive. Felt like I was in an empty nursing home.

Some quite nice dishes and a great wine list. However, not great if you are staying at the hotel since the menu is narrow and does not change from night to night - even the canapes, amuse-bouches and pre-dessrts are the same every night. Only one vegtarian main. Overall I think the food is on the medeocre side of OK for a fine dining place.

Un peu déçue . Chambre pas très propre surtout derrière la table de chevet . Pas de stylo ni de bloc papier pour prendre des notes. Salle de bains moderne mais pas très fonctionnelle, difficile de poser ses affaires, pas suffisamment de place autour du lavabo. Sol usé dans la douche. Sèche cheveux manquant, j’ai du en demander un en appelant la réception . Petit-déjeuner correct mais service trop lent. Seulement 3 tables d’occupées mais une seule personne pour la prise de commande, manque de personnel à mon avis . J’ai demandé du beurre salé, on m’en a rapporté en toute petite quantité en me disant qu’il n’y avait que cela. La demeure et le parc sont magnifiques. La réception n’est pas digne d’un établissement de ce genre .

What a magical stay, everything was perfect. A beautiful house in an equally beautiful location. So peaceful and quiet, so good for the soul. The staff were excellent, so friendly and attentive nothing was too much trouble. The little touches, flapjacks (the most delicious I have ever tasted), under a cloche in the room, fresh flowers on the tables, super coffee machine, the bed was turned down whilst we were out of the room. The food - breakfast and dinner, was out of this world (thank you chef), again served to us so efficiently and friendly. Everything was so personal, which made us feel very special. I cannot recommend Buckland Manor more highly. We really hope we can return. Thank you to everyone.

Dinner offered a good selection. Starting with a chefs treat. Steak was perfect. Breakfast was first class - especially the black pudding. Staff were attentive and efficient

Went with my husband today for lunch. It is such an amazing place, beautiful building, the food was excellent and the service absolutely outstanding.

We had a lovely Twixmas stay here for 3 nights. The afternoon tea was lovely, the restaurant was great, and the atmosphere was cozy. They were also very nice about my assistance dog. There weren't a ton of vegetarian options at the restaurant, but there were tons of options for breakfast, which we filled up on. The location was idyllic but also close enough to other cute Cotswold villages. They definitely deserve their Relais and Chateaux designation.

Enjoyed a birthday afternoon tea here! It was outstanding in content, atmosphere, service and setting. Couldn't fault the experience. Will definitely be back again! Thank you!

Fantastic place. Great room, fabulous food and superb service. Very relaxing. Will certainly return.

Went there for an anniversary dinner, and paid about £250 for a simple dinner for 2, with just 1 glass of wine. Superb surroundings and service, but though there were lots of tiny extras to the dinner, the portions were miniscule and left us hungry, and the chef ruins the texture of the root vegetables by pureeing most of them to the point of liquefaction. Conversation over dinner was made difficult by unnecessary and inappropriate piped music.

Buckland Manor, Relais and Chateaux have some work to do. Took our friends to Sunday Lunch not a good experience. Service staff needs serious training: red wine was spilled in a couple of places on the tablecloth and my friend's hand while being served; plates were scraped, silver stacked as were the plates at the table side; the crumbs were cleaned from the table twice by two different people; food spills on the table cloth by one person - we requested a napkin to cover before dessert/pudding; wine, water and food was not served or cleared from the correct side of each person; when questions were asked, we either received no answer or a rude one. Very disappointing.

Well worth going to. An excellent lunch in a very beautiful and tranquil location. Not cheap, but worth the money.

Positive: location is lovely, near nice walking pathways. Nice room. Nice grounds. The housekeeping staff were pleasant. Negative: can hear staff in the kitchen complaining that diners are ‘still’ in the dining area at the ghastly hour or 9 PM, well, dining. Wait staff not knowledgeable of wine they offer. Restaurant staff does not pay attention to details. At all. Very poor selection of teas.

We were lucky to experince a truely wonderful meal here a few days ago. The food was absolutley delicious. Every course was so interesting and tasty including the extra pre dinner nibbles. All the servive was without fault but Tegan went out of her way to make sure we had a special evening. No idea why they do not have a Michelin star !

Beautiful experience. The food, service and location were excellent. I’ll recommend the manor and dinner to friends.

Beautiful place. Staff lovely and friendly. Afternoon Tea was exceptional. Highly recommended. Third time we have visited.

Had a 3 course lunch menu, got canapes and bread also which was delicious. Good value for money. Beautiful gardens also

We were looked after from the moment we arrived nothing was too much trouble for the wonderful staff. We enjoyed the most delicious scones and tea and regretted not booking a table for dinner (we had arranged to meet friends for dinner nearby). The breakfast was delicious, freshly cooked and delivered with a smile. Our room was delightful - spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. There was a wonderful air of 'calm' in the hotel. Although we were only there for a night we felt we had been able to relax and enjoy this unique and wonderful hotel. We would definitely recommend it and look forward to our next stay.

One arrives at this magical location and experiences a quiet elegance and beautiful, traditional British environment. This is exactly why I travel to England, to feel the loveliness of the architecture, art and service of the country. Champagne and then dinner were exquisite. The chef’s offerings with Champagne delighted the palate. Dinner with a delicate French Chablis was memorable. Poached Lobster with gooseberry, hazelnut and elderflower was a chilled delight, the pan fried sea bass with fennel, red peppers and crab was wonderful and the cherry soufflé was perfect. From our table we saw the beautiful sunset through the dining room windows. Buckland Manor is a treasure!

Fabulous afternoon tea. Great food and service in beautiful setting. Range of sandwiches, sweets and freshly baked scones.

Excellent Sunday lunch service spot on and food excellent as good as any London restaurant setting great would definitely come again

The venue and staff were fantastic, very attentive and accommodating for a friends birthday celebration. We had a lovely, tasty, fresh afternoon tea and when asked if we would like a glass of fizz to go with the afternoon tea, of course we agreed! When looking at the menu, it was not made clear that *each* glass of fizz was provided at £35 extra! I thought this to be a little too excessive as the cost of the one glass of fizz, was the same price as afternoon tea for one person! It was a shame as it left a 'bad taste' in the mouth after such fabulous food and refreshingly good service.

We were looking for a special location for my wife and I to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary, and the Buckland Hotel proved to be just the right experience. Every aspect from the first greeting by the staff to the delightfully relaxed atmosphere in the dining room, and an excellent lunch menu. met all our expectations and more. Small touches by the staff to acknowledge the anniversary were very much appreciated. Definitely a hotel for a special occasion. .

Excellent afternoon tea with sunshine on the terrace overlooking the manicured grounds. Blue sky, green grass and the gentle sound of bird song. The selection of food was first class and the quality was excellent. On par with the Savoy. The service was attentive without being pushy. A lovely relaxing way to spend an afternoon. My wife and I are already planning another visit.

Excellent afternoon tea we have been many times and this afternoon tea is one of the best we have ever had. It is also very good value at £35 , in the most wonderful setting of buckland manor. The staff are very efficient and super friendly, we will be back many times

Very disappointing meal. Everything about it was wrong. Canapés were stale tasting and not nice. First courses of meal were tiny, dull and with a flavour that spoke of being a long time frozen. Amuse Bouche challenging, plain nasty, unappealing flavours, main course meagre, frozen tasting, draped with soggy uncuttable pac Choi and a tiny sprig of tooth-squeaking broccoli. My partner had barely any accompanying veg with his meal of lamb, but a plate smeared with some “ goop” as he called it. Flavour unidentifiable. This is a man who loves food and eating and usually finds everything yummy. Chose cheeses for desert as puddings sounded and looked poor. No nice aromas I the room or on the plates. Dead, frozen ingredients, poorly executed meal. The most expensive truly awful meal we have ever had. No mention of origin of ingredients anywhere. Had a bar meal the next day of “ catch of the day” which consisted of musty old tasting ex-frozen fish with rubbery skin, the same as my evening meal the day before. Neither were fresh or original in any way. And a very expensive meal overall yet again. Manifestly had not been “caught” for a very very long time I would hazard a guess. A historical catch no doubt, “the day” being some time long ago.

Excellent dining off the beaten path. Staff was helpful in getting us a taxi back to our cottage. Great wine options. Formal dress needed, so plan accordingly. Come in advance to walk the garden area. Not sure I would return for dinner but would definitely eat here again if I was staying on property.

Beautiful venue great service and the food first class Attention to detail is first class Would highly recommend

My girlfriend and I came here for a country afternoon tea and we weren't disappointed. We enjoyed every moment here. The tea selection was great, the food delicious, and the service 5 stars. The team at the Buckland Manor is amazing and made my girlfriend's birthday truly special.

Detoured off our walk along the Cotswold Way based on an enthusiastic recommendation from fellow hiking passersby, and so glad we did. Within minutes the staff had set up tea and coffee service in the garden patio for us, along with scones - they even...

Went to Buckland for a birthday meal while visiting the surrounding area. Food was amazing. Service was excellent. Staff incredibly friendly. The Happy Biryhday petit fours were a beautiful touch.

Absolutely divine <3 We had the monkfish, lamb and the chocolate delice and rhubarb crumble. Very well looked after and private. Intimate and romantic in a beautiful setting.

Room was beautiful with high quality interior furnishings and the bed was comfortable. Service was friendly. It’s location was good for exploring other villages in the Cotswold.

Extremely nice overnight stay with tasty evening meal in quiet relaxing surroundings after enjoying pre dinner drinks . Especially delicious Raspberry Soufflé for desert - probably the best I’ve ever had ! Buckland village is a delight with plenty of good walks weather permitting .

We went for afternoon tea for my in-laws 60th wedding anniversary all food was amazing. Was not told we had to pay service charge which was a extra £14

The hotel was everything we were expecting and much more! The afternoon tea was of a very high quality and very tasty. The room was of a high standard, even though we had chosen a small room. The staff were amazing, helpful and friendly. The service was very high quality, nothing was too much trouble, the attention to detail was second to none. We were made to feel most welcome. We would love to return at some point.

Very disappointing meal Duck very tough and offered alternative of lamb which was even worse. Did get a reduction on bill to cover this but not really the point. Lack of attention, had to find waiter for wine and to settle bill despite restaurant less...

I cannot praise their customer service highly enough. Couple this with delicious food and a delightful ambience - what more could one wish for!

Superb, professional service with an interesting and innovative menu. Very fine cooking on display. Highly recommended.

We have stayed at Buckland on several occasions previously and it has always been exemplary in all respects.

We visited here for an afternoon tea. The service was good, everyone was very friendly and welcoming. The afternoon tea was so lovely, the scones were amazing & the cakes delicious. I would definitely recommend.

A beautiful location and excellent dinner service. The service from the team was attentive and enthusiastic from start to finish and the food was of excellent quality albeit small portions but this is to be expected. I would most likely visit again.

Came just for afternoon tea. Very attentive and professional staff! Delicious food- plenty of it. A real treat! Would thoroughly recommend this delightful venue!

An interesting and original menu, bordering on the quirky - for instance ‘pork nose to tail’ containing several delicious different cuts of pork but no nose or tail. Everything beautifully presented, interesting flavour combinations, portion size just right and service immaculate. A wine list ranging...

The most beautiful setting with welcoming staff. So many generous tasters before we started our meal, which were served in the bar before going into the elegant dining room. We had the 3 course lunch menu, I have been lucky enough to enjoy many meals...

Fantastic stay and dining in this little corner of the cotswold. Noting too much trouble. Food is out of this world. Perfect grey goose martini and delish nibbles. Comfiest bed I've had in a hotel for years. Absolutely smashing

Everything was as expected, excellent service and food, plus like minded fellow guests. We have had excellent afternoon teas here previously and will return for special occasions. Great location.

My mother and I experienced such a lovely afternoon tea service at Buckland Manor in December '22. A warm welcome, an absolutely stunning lounge to sit in with a roaring fire, excellent service and the food was superb. The experience was simply perfect!

Came here for afternoon tea. The service is 5 star. Sandwiches,tea and cakes were all excellent but the scones were a massive let down, very dry and only a few pieces of fruit plus only a small pot of cream. But the rest of the...

Real high class Fine Dining with the excellent standards of conduct and service.

Tucked away right before the main Broadway strip, Buckland is a gorgeous manor. We didn't stay at the manor but went for afternoon tea. The lobby lounge area was very quaint and cozy for tea. We sat on some cushy couches to enjoy. The tea selections were plentiful and several options for the tea food as well. The service was also on point. The food was just ok - one of the finger sandwiches was dry around the edges, so it had clearly been pre-cut and sitting out. The fruit scone was also extremely dry, burnt, crumbled at the touch. Surprising and unfortunate. One of the sweet options on the top rack was stuck to the plate so it exploded as we tried to placate it and we didn't really get to eat it. Also, surprisingly different from all other afternoon tea places, the menu stated an additional tea would be an additional cost. Food was 3 stars at best but the ambiance was key. To note - there was a 10% service charge auto-added to our bill and parking is free.

Fabulous afternoon tea. Very good combination of savoury and sweet treats. The scones were exceptional. The lounge area was cosy with an open fire and beautiful Xmas decorations. This was a great festive treat.
