Woodland Manor Hotel, hotel in Bedford

Woodlands Manor is a secluded manor house in acres of grounds and gardens 2 miles from Bedford town center and accessible from the M1 motorway.

So, looking at prior reviews I decided to book this on a whim. What I can say is that the surroundings are amazing. Located close to the city centre but far enough away to not be bothered by traffic flowing past. Plenty of parking spaces, beautiful hotel with an interesting history. Our room was fantastic, quiet and a great view of the tranquil gardens from the windows. We are coming back and hopefully sooner rather than later. Staff helpful and pleasant and the breakfast (we were out in the evenings) was perfect with plenty of choice. How this place has 3 stars I'll never know.

    We need to plan a return visit - the was so much to do but other commitments meant that we only caught glimpses of what the town had to offer. We did enjoy dining at the Nazar Lounge, an original establishment where we were feted with tasty food from friendly, attentive staff. We have to go back - sooner rather than later.

    Bedford is a pleasant town with deep history, but not a lot to show for it. The castle is in ruins. I was serendipitously surprised to find the John Bunyan Museum across the street from my hotel. The writer of Pilgrim's Progress, he is perhaps Bedford's most famous citizen, more even than the medieval Lords and Ladies who resided in the castle. The river walk is beautiful. I watching people sculling on the river. Many people commute from Bedford to London for work.

    Bedford has a great museum & art collection at The Higgins & just around the corner is the world famous John Bunyan museum.Sadly the High Street is in decline with the recent proliferation of out of town shopping centres,but the river front Embankment,Russell Park & the site of Bedford Castle make for good walks. The town has some nice cafes & pubs & there is a market in the square on Saturdays-mainly fruit & veg & food.There are other stalls outside Boots selling clothes.On the other side of town is the larger Bedford Park,complete with Victorian bandstand & public swimming pool. Bedford has some lovely architecture & interesting old churches & pubs. There is a new cinema on the outskirts of town. For clothes shopping etc Rushden Lakes & Milton Keynes are a short drive away,as are many diverse pretty country village pubs for dinner. There is a large independent book shop in town which is worth a visit.

    Bedfords most redeeming features are the River Great Ouse...

    Bedfords most redeeming features are the River Great Ouse with many walks along the embankment and further, 2 large well managed parks, plenty of history. As a base there are 2 amazing aircraft museums within 30 miles, closest is The shuttlworth collection at Old Warden, a bit further is Duxford Imperial War Museum. There are many other interesting attractions only a short drive away. As well as some really good hotels where quality and service are excellent The Barns for example,

    Due to the bitter cold weather it was was not the ideal place although the market was on and I got the wreathes for the church yards and cemetery so it saved me another trip to Bedford , there was a winter wonderland in Bedford park that is the first time I have ever known anything like that to be in the park.

    The large parks were very well kept and made for a pleasant walk. There is quite a contrast between some areas, the waterfront area is good but some of the suburb areas are quite run down and you may wish to avoid after dark. Plenty of places to eat out.

    All the facilities, I have been before and enjoyed my stay there, so this time! The staff pleasant, attentive and vey helpful as I had a bit of pb with my mobile phone and helped with an another lead from the Hotel. I lived in Bedford many years ago so it was really great to be in familiar ground again! I have known the Hotel many many years ago in fact my own mother and a friend stayed there but it wasn't the confort standard it has now with the change of ownership!

    Hotel d'Parys is on a leafy quiet avenue of Bedford, still 5 minutes walk to the high street. The hotel is in an old charming Victorian house that fit my taste perfectly. D'Parys has a spacious restaurant area, with the best old world charm. The rooms are spacious, though I don't quite understand the concept of putting the bath tub in the room directly. The staff is very kind & helpful.

    Large twin room with all modern facilities. Breakfast was good with a range of options. location is very central and in a good area of Bedford. Staff were very helpful and pleasant. The hotel decor on the inside and in the rooms is of a good modern standard, unlike the outside appearance, this is one hotel that could do with some cladding.

    I had a cooked breakfast, it was well made and hot, there was complimentary cereal and other options available too. Staff were friendly and helpful. The guesthouse is a recently renovated Victorian villa in a quiet avenue close to the centre of Bedford. My room had an enormous (queen sized) bed and everywhere was impeccably clean.

    Great hotel for 1 night stay, good location to access Bedford and other routes, staff were very helpful from checking in, at breakfast and until we left. I'm gluten free and at breakfast they provided gluten free breakfast cereals and toast upon request. We had our dog with us and nice garden area at the back to take him out.

    The location is wonderful. You can walk into Bedford town, or down to the River Great Ouse. Having a dedicated parking space was a real plus too. There is a washer/dryer, which was very handy.
