De Vere Latimer Estate

We had the pleasure of staying here for a family wedding. Check in was straightforward, friendly and helpful staff as well. The hotel room was very clean and quiet, the only downside is the creaking floorboards, but the beds were super comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and love the fact that there is a restaurant and bar on the premises with a spacious breakfast area as well.

Beautiful country stay. Only thing I can fault is the place feeling a little understaffed when it’s busy. Everything was running out at breakfast because of a hungry wedding party and big queues at the bar the night before. Quality is on point though.

.

But as good as it could if been untrained staff long waiting times for food

The first day at breakfast I had to clear our table to be able to sit down then all the food had run out including the Cooked breakfast which then we had to wait 10 minutes for any cooked breakfast to be cooked l had to hunt for cutlery couldn’t find a tea pot staff seemed to be running around they didn’t seem to know what was going on our first night at 2am in the morning the room opposite us were banging on the door to get into their room which continued for an hour until a staff member came to let them in. Our room seemed smaller than the one we booked it was compact and I was just not impressed

Lovely stay at De Vere, the grounds are pretty, with a stunning view. Beds were comfy, the room was clean. There was plenty of choice for breakfast which we enjoyed. Would recommend.

Place don’t have the AC. Other wise it’s nice place also u can get uber from the hotel to any where.

We had 2 nights staying for a wedding, the house itself is in a lovely position looking over the Chessvale so a great view, due to the very warm weather the grass outside was parched so Im guessing with a bit of rain it would look lovely, the staff were amazing and friendly, its certainly not cheap for food and drink comparable to central London prices l’d guess, the wedding breakfast was top notch, again staff were amazing. The few downsides is we booked 2 rooms with breakfast and when we arrived we were told breakfast hadn't been requested which it was as we went there and booked it several months beforehand, the rooms we had were right at the front and it was very noisy with shouting and revving motor cycles, it made it worse as there was really hot and no air conditioning so we couldn't close the windows. We also couldn’t keep the sash windows open so had to use a book to wedge it, open, the fridge was warm and only one bedside light worked. The breakfast in the conservatory was excellent with a great choice of continental cold and warm food a range of coffees so all in all catered for all tastes. The main thing that ruined for us is over the 2 nights we stayed the fire alarm went off 3 times in the middle of the night for no particular reason which messed up our much needed sleep, otherwise a great stay.

Although the main house is beautiful, and has character, the accommodation blocks have the feel of a low security prison. Very unwelcoming, poor/non-existent signage of room numbers and the bed is too short for a 6'1" adult.

My stay was comfortable.The internal movement from the room to restaurant or bar is not very clear.Also the hotel sign is not there on the main road. It would help. Overall the hotel is good.
