Greenwoods Hotel and Spa - Stock - Sept 2012

Our wedding venue! We stayed overnight after our wedding here and I also stayed the night before with my bridesmaids.


Greenwoods is a lovely old manor house in the village of Stock in Essex, with a spa attached. The staff are all really lovely and helpful and our wedding went very smoothly and was the most wonderful day, lucky with the weather too!

As far as the hotel is concerned, we had the honeymoon suite in the old part of the building which overlooked the gardens at the rear. It is a lovely large room, quite traditional in decor with dark wood furniture and a victorian ensuite bathroom.

Breakfast is in the restaurant downstairs and includes a buffet and the option of a hot breakfast to order. The service in the restaurant does tend to be slow, but the food is lovely and there are plenty of juices and drinks to help yourselves to. On our wedding morning we had breakfast in our room which was much better!

The price you pay to stay here includes the use of the spa, so it is quite good value for money if you do intend to use it and get your money's worth out of the spa! There is a heated indoor pool and jacuzzi, steam room and sauna. The treatments are quite expensive although on a par with most spas. The spa area is very nice and relaxing, you get your complementary robes and slippers and use of the changing rooms. All the staff are very good and very friendly.

All in all, we had the most wonderful wedding at Greenwoods and cannot thank the staff enough, especially Amy for making it the day it was!
