My wife and I had not idea what to expect when we booked Bowfield House, but from the very moment we walked through the front door, until the moment we checked out a couple of days later, we realised we had found the holy grail of stays. Genuinely friendly staff who were happy to interact with both guests and other staff members, great facilities, such as pool, spa, restaurant, etc. our room was cosy and spot on and the food was fantastic. Next time we head towards Glasgow, this will be where we stay for years to come I hope.

Lovely first visit

Fantastic first stay, well impressed with check in by Vivienne who managed to get our room accessed before official check in. She showed us where everything was and location where room located. Angela at pool area was helpful and could not fault attentive Michael at dinner or Rosie at breakfast. The facilities, pool spa etc where first class. The rooms beautiful cosy and bathroom spotless. Would definitely recommend and we will return for another visit.

The staff were great with my daughter who has multiple allergies. The staff all new every allergy and were very helpful especially Katy and Orla. The only thing I was disappointed with was I booked a 2 night stay and wasn’t allowed to use the outdoor hot tub as I hadn’t booked a treatment which I feel wasn’t fair considering the amount of money I had spent in the hotel.

Bowfield stay

Room was a superior. It need updating, the carpet was old looking as well as the furniture. The bathroom has been slightly updated with modern tiles. The bath panel is old wood and getting in and out of the shower is a challenge due to the width and height. Feel there could have been a few wee extras just to make it live up to the superior status. The pool and spa area are good. The restaurant didnt have any of the red wine in stock that we asked for, which was disappointing. The staff are great all really professional and friendly at the same time. We've been at the Bowfield many times over the years but sadly this will probably be our last.

Good, failed by the bar and restaurant

Overall a nice play to stay. The gym and the pool are very nice, rooms are fine and the staff very friendly and helpful. A nice touch for parents is a softplay with a cafe. The promise of the bar's and restaurant's decor however meets the reality of very poor food and drinks menu. The food menu is unimaginative and my dinner was less than average with a lazy presentation. Five basic red wines and very limited whisky in the bar with poor food makes it feel cheap. Fix the bar and the restaurant and the place will be great!

The place itself is great. However, they do a big fail on smaller but essential items easily rectified. For instance my father ordered a burger and it took 40 minutes to turn up, which was cold and bland. The chips were cold and mash potato too. During break fast the items always look a little tired and they use that god awful fake scrambled eggs everyone hates to save pennies and Tesco cheap as chips bread…. When it should be bespoke sourdough to reflect the quality of the hotel. Also sometimes the servers just didn’t care or would say drop toast off and run off and you’ll be chasing them for butter and cutlery. We have noticed these patterns over multiple nights and staff so wasn’t one off moments. Which is a shame because the venue itself is absolutely amazing. If they can focus on the kitchen and service they will nail it.
