Woolley Grange, a 17th-century manor near Bradford-on-Avon, has been renovated to provide a relaxing experience for families with young children. The hotel, part of the Luxury Family Hotels group, completed renovations in October and added new garden rooms in May 2026.
Accommodation and Facilities
Accommodations are available in the main historic building and separate structures. The Chapman suite in the Pavilion offers a master bedroom, a children's room with bunk beds, a living area, and a large bathroom. The hotel's design blends rustic charm with luxury, incorporating a tasteful sheep theme with sheepskin wall hangings and decorative sheep figures.
The grounds include a main playground with a zip line, a toddler play area, a fairy garden, and two swimming pools: one heated outdoor pool and an indoor pool. While most hotels limit family pool access, Woolley Grange designates specific 'adults time' for pool usage. The spa area provides a quiet retreat with an outdoor hot tub and loungers, offering deep tissue massages.
Dining Options
Dining at Woolley Grange is adapted for families, with earlier dinner sittings and pre-set tables for children. Guests can dine indoors in the orangery or outdoors on the terrace. The menu features classic dishes such as burgers and pasta ragù, with the adjacent playground allowing children to burn energy between courses.
Breakfast includes a buffet with fruits and pastries, alongside à la carte options like full English breakfasts and shakshuka. Children can also order special items like bacon sandwiches.
Family-Focused Amenities
A key feature for parents is the complimentary two-hour daily childcare service at the Four Bears Den, catering to children aged three months to eight years. The Ofsted-registered facility provides a variety of toys and activities. Sessions are available daily starting at 9:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m.
In the evening, an optional cinema club begins at 5:45 p.m., showing a short TV program followed by two films. Children can enjoy popcorn, milk, and cookies while watching movies in a dedicated space.
Woolley Grange is recommended for families with young children seeking a tranquil holiday. Rates start at £250 per night on a bed and breakfast basis.
