We decided to stay at Great Fosters instead of an airport at Heathrow and we are really happy we did. The cab ride from airport to hotel was a flat 80UKB which for a 5 mile ride is nothing short of highway robbery so that put us on a bit of downer to be honest. We checked in late so the hotel was very quiet. We were escorted to our room by a lovely desk clerk. The room was not in the main house but we were ok with that. It was a fairly well appointed room but what let it down was the flooring. It was cheap engineered wooden flooring that creaked and moaned, was poorly locked together so there were gaps in the planks but apart from the bed was comfortable the linens were nice and it was really quiet so we slept really well.
We had breakfast the next morning. Staff were nice, food was above average but only just. Service was the same. After breakfast we had booked massages as we were on an 11 hr west coast flight. The massage itself was good but weirdly the ambient music kept repeating itself with a good 1 minute gap every cycle which was around 3 minutes and this was really distracting and also a little awkward when it was silent....
The we explored the grounds and .... WOW. They are stunning, a window back in time to a very well manicured English stately garden complete with little curiosities, a lake, geese and enough flowers to make 1000 weddings happy, truly glorious.
Check was smooth and once again provided by really lovely staff.
Would recommend.
