“I chose this venue for the Golden Wedding Anniversary of my wife and I; a 9 person multigenerational gathering with ages from 6 to 73.”

From the early stages of the booking, Pete the host was very communicative, promptly responding to a wide range of questions and providing useful information. Whilst we were there, he was on hand if we needed anything else. The location of the house is superb with lovely walks through the hay meadows and onto footpaths beyond.

From the early stages of the booking, Pete the host was very communicative, promptly responding to a wide range of questions and providing useful information. Whilst we were there, he was on hand if we needed anything else. The location of the house is superb with lovely walks through the hay meadows and onto footpaths beyond. Even with 9 people staying we never felt cramped with lots of space to gather or chill quietly. When the weather is fine then there are different outside eating areas, a huge lawn (with 5 aside football goal posts) to play on and an excellent hot tub. We had one day with rain and then the garden rooms and games room came into their own (The pinball machine deserves a special mention; free to play and absolutely superb, but addictive). All our party said they would love to return, but let one of the younger ones organise it!!!!

“Pete was a fantastic host, the house is stunning and was perfect for our hen weekend stay, the grounds are beautiful and the house was incredibly high end decorated.”

Pete even cooked our BBQ for us which was very much appreciated. You will need to take extra coffee, tea, sugar and toilet rolls if 16 of you as you are only provided enough to start off. I would highly recommend Groomes and would definitely stay here again :o)

Maggie April 2025

“We had an amazing family stay at Groomes with 3 generations of family to celebrate our parents diamond anniversary.”

The house is very spacious, well-furnished with lots of places for people to relax, come together or chill out as they wish. The hot tub and games room were big hits with our teens, and the surrounding area is beautiful for walks from the door. Pete is a gracious host, very helpful, great communication and quick to respond to any queries. For a big family stay it's a wonderful choice.

Michael March 2025

“Pete was a great host throughout the weekend and the accommodation and facilities were much better than expected.”

The rooms were lavish and large and the house had lots of space for all 14 of us to roam and not feel like we were on top of each other. We would definitely stay again.

- Michael, March 2025

Thank you for your review. It was a pleasure to have you all here and we hope to see you again soon. Pete Property Owner
Carol March 2025

“Fabulous short break, the house was perfect for our 3 families and the grounds are set in a wonderful location, with plenty of good walking right from the front door.”

Our teenagers loved the games room and the huge garden was great for the children and dogs to explore. The owners were on hand, lovely and very communicative, nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend.

- Carol, March 2025

Thank you for your review. I’m really pleased you all had a great time and look forward to seeing you back again soon. Pete Property Owner
Annette February 2025

“Stayed at Groomes Country House with my family as part of my 70th Birthday celebrations.”

Ages of people staying ranged from 2 years to 70 years and as Groomes has a lovely garden, games room and hot tub there was something for everyone. It was a bonus being able to take up to 2 small dogs and have an additional bed added to one of the bedrooms whilst staying within accommodation maximum. Location is good with plenty of things to do including some great walks. Pete and his wife were good hosts and available if we had any issues. Would definitely stay at Groomes Country Hotel again.

- Annette, February 2025

Thank you for your review. We are very pleased that you all had a good time and hope to see you back again soon. Property Owner

Went through everything with us when first arrived. House was clean and tidy. we had everything we needed and could not of asked for more. We are looking to go back in the summer as the place was perfect.

Ages ranged from 2 years old to 92 and everyone was comfortable and entertained at all times. When we arrived the house was spotless and set up exactly the way we requested. Thank you!

Sandra August 2024

“Wonderful house, beautiful bedrooms and all with lovely en-suites.”

Enjoyed the rural views and garden which is very well kept, lots of choices of seating areas and great BBQ area under cover. Lots to keep you entertained - pool table, table football, pinball, board games, swingball, TV’s in all rooms, great hot tub, walks, etc. House exceptionally well maintained and clean. Owners very attentive, friendly and helpful. Lots of great places to visit nearby, country market and pubs close by, would highly recommend Groomes for a relaxing holiday or for a special event and would visit again. Thanks to Jane and Pete for our relaxing stress free break enjoyed by all our family ages 17 to 88.

Philip August 2024

“We had a great stay at Groomes, with a family group of 10 adults, 4 children and 2 dogs.”

There is so much to do in the surrounding area and the house was very comfortable and met our needs very well. Pete and his son Ed was very welcoming and was always on hand during our stay if need be. Thoroughly recommended!

Katie August 2024

“We had a fantastic week at Groomes Country House.”

The house was perfect for our large family reunion and exceeded our already high expectations. There was plenty of room for everyone in the kitchen, dining room, and living spaces. The bedrooms were spacious, comfortable, and all en-suite. The games room was well-used and provided a lovely additional space in the evening. We were lucky to have great weather during our stay, so we were able to fully enjoy the conservatory and the large garden. The hot tub was a fantastic bonus on hot days. The kitchen and dining room were very well equipped with plenty of crockery and cutlery for large groups. Pete and Ed were very welcoming and made sure that we knew where everything was and how to use the hot tub. Our whole family agreed that the house made a great week even better.

- Katie, August 2024

Thank you so much for the positive feedback . We are so pleased you enjoyed Groomes. Property Owner
O G June 2024

“Nice house but let down by the details.”

It would be better to provide guests with a key to the gate without asking. Proper bedding, soap, towels for the tub and a bit less observation would be good too.

- O G, June 2024

Thank you for your review. Had you mentioned any of these things when you were with us we would have been delighted to have helped you. Everyone left happy and we did not receive any negative feedback whilst you were with us but appreciate your comments and will continue to work hard to ensure all our guests have a wonderful stay. Pete and Jane Property Owner
Heather June 2024

“Our family of 10 just had a wonderful stay at Groomes.”

It was ideal for a large group with loads of rooms and comfortable seating. The spa was very popular but pipped into 2nd place by the pinball machine which was a huge success! Bedrooms were huge with very comfortable beds and all included very smart en-suites. The kitchen was very well equipped and had lots of space. Lovely, big garden outside that was popular with the deer too! Pete and his son Ed were very helpful with any queries we had. We would be very happy to return to Groomes again one day.

- Heather, June 2024

Hi Heather, thank you for your lovely review and for leaving the house so tidy. It was a pleasure to have you here and we hope to see you back again before too long. Pete Property Owner
Janet May 2024

“We booked a long weekend for a family get together with family visiting from America.”

The house is lovely, huge rooms & bathrooms, plenty of space for 3 children to run around both inside & out. They particularly enjoyed the hot tub. We were able to eat in the outdoor barn each evening, which is glazed on one side so it stayed warm, especially when the BBQ was on. The hosts were very welcoming. Highly recommended.

- Janet, May 2024

Hi Janet , thank you for your review. It was lovely to meet you all and we hope you will be back before too long. Pete Property Owner
Philip April 2024

“We spent a special family birthday at Groomes in April 2024, and the house was perfect for our family of 16.”

The kids under 10 spent mornings playing in the well equipped games room and snug and playing hide and seek in the many secret hiding places, whilst the adults chatted and drank wine! The lounge with it's woodburner and supply of logs was cosy in the evenings and the dining room big enough for family celebrations. All the bedrooms were ensuite. Pete and Jane and Ed were great hosts and nothing was too much trouble for them.

- Philip, April 2024

Hi Phil, thank you for choosing Groomes for your special birthday celebrations. It was a pleasure to have you all here and we hope you will be back for the next family get together. Pete Property Owner

“Fabulous property and Pete and Jane were very helpful.”

Perfect for my 70th birthday family celebration. So spacious and so much room for 10 adults. Games room was well used and hot tub was also used, despite the outside temperature being only 3°. Lady recommended by Pete cooked a delicious 3-course meal on Saturday evening. A great Time and wonderful memories.

- John, January 2024

Thank you for the lovely feedback.It was pleasure to see you and to hear you enjoyed Groomes . Thank you for leaving the property in such good order much appreciated. We hope to see you again. Property Owner
John December 2023

“Very well provided house and rooms.”

Whole family enjoyed the house and available space with a very hospitable welcome from our host. Games room and hot tub enjoyed by all. The snug could have done with a little more lighting for reading purposes but was very comfortable. Dining room was excellent and plenty of seating for all. I would recommend this to all and indeed have given full,details to a friend.

- John, December 2023

Thank you it was very nice to meet you and we are very pleased you enjoyed Groomes. The feedback about the light in the snug was very useful and we have bought a new lamp to improve the lighting so thank you for letting us know much appreciated. Jane and Pete Property Owner
Jan October 2023

“The owner of the property was very helpful with additional information on this sizeable property to aid our planning for 16 residents.”

It is very spacious, has been superbly renovated to retain its historic character, very well maintained, clean, and well facilitated with kitchen equipment, crockery, glasses etc and logs for the open fire. Lots of short flights of stairs and took a while to get orientated, but absolutely charming. Games room very popular with our 3 generational family and 'snug' a similar go to. Conservatory is fabulous, hot tub also. BBQ served us well. Log fire in lounge was delightfully comforting on October evenings but the house heating on thermostatic control was always warm anyway. We had a very wet day and a very warm one. Property worked well whatever the weather. All in all, a joy. Expensive over a half term weekend, but lots of features for your money.

- Jan, October 2023

Thank you for your review. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again. Property Owner
Rachel June 2023

“Came for a hen do in June and had the best time ever.”

There were 14 of us and there was plenty of space for us all in the very generously sized and beautifully finished bedrooms. The outdoor space really made it, the weather was beautiful which meant we spent a lot of time outdoors enjoying the stunning views. There is an outdoor covered/ sheltered dining area that comfortably fit us all in, with outdoor fridge and bbq. The accommodation is set up perfectly for group parties with outdoor lighting and speaker system, along with the hottub. The hosts are super welcoming and accommodating (and have very cute dogs)! I would definitely recommend to other hen groups or any large groups, really lovely home for the weekend.

- Rachel, June 2023

Thank you for the wonderful feedback. It was a pleasure to meet you and we are so pleased you enjoyed the venue. You were lovely guests and would be welcome back anytime . Pete and Jane Property Owner
Will May 2023

“We rented this property for a family gathering The owner was very communicative and provided us with important and positive info on disability access and additional bed availability.”

The property is unbelievably beautiful, super well maintained, spotlessly clean and just perfect for a large group. We arrived to a warm welcome from the owners who walked us through each room and clearly stated their rules for the preservation of the antique furnishings. Each room has an en-suite bathroom and luckily for us we arrived to brand new fluffy quality towels ! The kitchen is well equipped … the only issues that we had were with old can openers and the kitchen mixer/blender which does not work. We were allowed to make this our home for 3 nights and thankfully were blessed with beautiful weather so could enjoy the beautiful outdoor patio, lounging areas and hot tub throughout our stay There were even football nets and a ball available for a game on the super flat lawns. We highly recommend this property and hope to find an occasion to return Thank you for sharing your beautiful home

- Will, May 2023

Thank you for your positive feedback. We are pleased you enjoyed the property. Thank you for flagging the tin opener and food processor both of which are now sorted . Apologies for any inconvenience this caused you . The weather was lovely for you so glad you could enjoy the garden facilities , seating areas and lovely sunsets. Hope you will return soon great to have you to stay . Pete and Jane Property Owner
Pratyoosh May 2023

“Fabulous property and would definitely recommend to our friends & family.”

It was lovely to meet Pete & Jayne, the property owners, who went out of the way to make us comfortable (we have young kids; specific needs for the group). The property is immaculate, very well done up with quality goods and super comfortable for large groups. Everything was well thought out and planned for. Would love to go back and stay again some day.

Carol April 2023

“Thank your Pete & Jane.”

Groomes is an absolutely fabulous house that provided an fantastic base for us, as the bridal party, to stay for a long weekend. That you for being so communicative, accommodating and gracious to our requests, enabling us to fulfil our plans and expectations of the weekend. We ALL loved the house, the games room and with the exceptionally warm sunny weather it was possible for us to not only spend time in the lovely garden room and coach house, but also admire the views form the large garden and hot tub. "asante sana sana"

- Carol, April 2023

Thank you for the great feedback. So so pleased you enjoyed the house and facilities . It was lovely to meet you all . Pete really enjoyed his conversations with you and the memories it brought back . Pete and Jane Property Owner
Tina December 2022

“The house was perfect for our family gathering of 15 aged from 11 to 82, there was space for everyone.”

The games room was a big attraction for the youngsters and for some of us the hot tub was the place to relax. Peter, the owner was a fantastic host, responsive to any queries we had and he made sure we had anything we wanted. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and crockery as well as use of two fridge freezers. I would highly recommend Groomes as a place to meet friends and family as there is something for everyone

- Tina, December 2022

Thank you very much for your lovely feedback. You were fantastic guests and it was a pleasure to meet you . Thank you for recommending other guests who have now booked .Much appreciated. Pete and Jane Property Owner

“Great place to stay to share a pre Xmas family weekend.”

Owner very responsive and helpful lives opposite so on hand if any issues. Used Mandy a local lady recommended by Peter the owner to cater on the Saturday evening. She came to the house to cook and serve. Great food restaurant quality and very clean and tidy kitchen when she left. Games room and pinball machine provided family competition fun. Thanks Peter

- Julie, December 2022

So glad you had a great time . You were great guests .We have used Mandy before so pleased that ,as before, the meal was good . Thank you for coming to stay with us and we hope to see you again in the future. Pete Property Owner

“From the moment we booked Pete was incredibly accomodating, friendly and helpful.”

On arrival he was so welcoming and his friendly and kind demeanor meant we felt instantly relaxed and excited for our weekend. The house is absolutely stunning, really well stocked and furnished, filled with history and the views are breathtaking. Every single guest was complimentary about the house and it played a huge part in us having such a memorable weekend. We are all planning when we can come back again!!

“Came here with family in 2021 and enjoyed it so much booked it again for this year .”

The house is so spacious you’ll enjoy finding different routes around it. Snug and basement games room. Conservatory and sitting room. Big dining room and a large table outside if you want a barbecue or to eat Al Fresco. Huge garden that have football goals for the energetic or the hot tub if you just want to relax. Hosts Pete and Jane couldn’t be more friendly or helpful. Just perfect.

- John, July 2022

Thank you so much for your lovely review and for returning to Groomes.It was so nice to see you ,the family and the dogs again.We are so pleased you had a lovely time again and we may hopefully see you again in the future.Regards Pete and Jane Property Owner
Penny July 2022

“Fabulous stay last summer.”

Spotless house with oodles of space for everyone, including my 3 visiting miniature hens and their sire. Warm, friendly hosts. Extremely informative and helpful. Bad press by former visitors whose under 14s jumping on furniture and freely splashing around in hot tub without adult supervision. The latter novelty, from the perspective of former paediatric nurse, whose seen tragedies from such adult ignorance, is visitors should be aware that a hot tub isn't the same as a bath due to the faucets involved plus addition of warm water into the mix!!!

- Penny, July 2022
Alex June 2022

“We had a perfect stay.”

There wasn't anything to fault really. It would just be nit-picking, which is unnecessary!!! The property was spotless with every amenity we could have hoped for. The only thing we would mention is that a brave effort initially was made to separate the recycling, but with so many of us, general rubbish was placed in whatever bag was nearest, so maybe some kind of designated recycling bins would be useful? Other than that, it was truly perfect and a memorable family celebration. Thank you so much for all your help and kindness. You were so welcoming and we felt so comfortable. We would definitely consider another family gathering at your property.

- Alex, June 2022

Thank you for your wonderful review.We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay.We note the very helpful comment regarding the re cycling and agree that is a very good idea thank you. Regards Pete and Jane Groomes Property Owner

Colin December 2021

“Although Groomes was in the main very suitable for our family break there were some problems: 1.”

The bedroom on the ground floor was not to the same standard as the other bedrooms. 2. We set off the fire alarm and after contacting the owner, who instructed me in disconnecting the alarm we spent the rest of the holiday without the alarm. 3. We were accused of removing a saucepan and damaging an oven door neither of which were our responsibility. I was asked to claim the oven door on the insurance I had taken out but when I read the claim form I declined. 4. I spent the last day at the cottage alone and was asked by the owner if he could prepare the unused bedrooms for the next occupants. Although I agreed my last day was disrupted and I only managed to have the rest of the day to myself by saying, jokingly, to the owner that if he stayed much longer I would have to consider asking for a refund. 5. The owner rang me about three hours after I had left to tell me about the two so called problems created by our party. I should explain that the drive home took me over five hours so I was still driving and was not hands free. Overall the above problems certainly soured my mood and I ended up wishing I had booked elsewhere. I have booked cottages every year since my wife passed away in January 2013 and have never had any problems before. Needless to say I will NOT be rebooking Groomes!

- Colin, December 2021

Thank you for the review. I am very sorry that there were aspects of your stay which you were unhappy with . I thought we had established a good relationship and indeed helped you unload your car when you arrived and offered further help as you were alone when you were leaving. It is important that any concerns are discussed with guests as soon as possible so I feel that when items are missing or damaged that it is only fair and reasonable to ask about them . Please be assured that I take feedback very seriously and will reflect fully on your comments . Property Owner

Anita November 2021

“We celebrated my dads 80th here and our hosts were very welcoming.”

The house is lovely and well suited to multi generation families, the games room in particular was very popular! We organised a catered meal with our hosts who did an amazing job, setting the tables out, catering children separate from adults and making the evening one to remember. Would definitely recommend.

Clifford October 2021

“Very enjoyable family week.”

Pete the owner was most helpful and went out of his way to make sure got the most out of our stay. The house has all the facilities needed for a multi generational get together and we would fully recommend it. The addition of the hot tub will be the icing on the cake.

- Clifford, October 2021

“Beautiful house.”

Spotlessly clean with everything you could need provided. Lovely big garden and spacious inside with rooms to chill out in or the brilliant games too for a little fun and excitement. Owners are extremely nice and helpful. Thoroughly recommend Groomes for a special holiday

Rosemary May 2021

“Groomes is a beautiful place to stay.”

The setting is idyllic: peaceful and at one with nature. Yet it is close enough to main roads to make it accessible to a lot of places. The hosts are fantastic people with just the right balance between looking after guests and giving them space. The inside rooms are all lovely with good-quality furniture and fittings. The teenage den proved to be a great place for our boys to spend time, whilst our elderly parents read books in the conservatory. It felt a privilege to stay here and I hope we'll be back.

- Rosemary, May 2021
Lorraine August 2020

“Ample space in and around property for large numbers, but if full could have done with more lounge seating and perhaps a few more outside seats, a hot tub would be a good addition.”

Owner very pleasant and helpful, house spotlessly clean. Sykes admin very efficient but did experience great difficulty in trying to contact regarding a problem prior to holiday, a member of staff did call eventually and sorted issue. When l very politely mentioned about the difficulty l had in contacting you, l was most annoyed at the response and attitude of your representative , l do understand C19 has given all of us problems, but at end of the day, l was the paying customer.

- Lorraine, August 2020
Mike July 2020

“Absolutely beautiful house, immaculately presented with everything you need for your stay.”

Pete and wife were very friendly and helpful hosts and on hand for anything we needed. I’d highly recommend staying here, beautiful peaceful location with lots around to do and see. We’d love to come again,
