Walterstone Vacation Rentals

"Restaurant next door. Quiet room. Lots of parking. Room basic but worn and needed some maintenance. View was lovely!!"

"All very nice "

"Breakfast was so expensive for the quality. The rooms are a bit tired and the milk sachets were out of date."

"- The guy that checked us in really didnt want to be at work that day. Was completely uninterested - Booked the room for 3 but couch wasn't set up - Couch bed mattress was horrendous. Shower head barely worked - Cleaning process doesnt follow industry standard and its not communicated to guests. Just put a poster in the room instead of a tiny one at reception. - blown a fuse at night, and stuf wasnt able to access fuse box. We had to move rooms which was quite annoying and time consuming "

"The Speech house was our first stop in the UK after arriving from the US. Having never traveled to the UK before everything was new and different! The staff were extremely kind, helpful, gracious, patient and accommodating. We relied on them for information of all kinds and would have struggle mightily if not for them! The food was very good--beautifully presented and delicious. We were graciously upgraded to a larger cottage room which was a tremendous benefit since we stayed for a week. (Thank you Chaz!) The property is beautiful, historic, and interesting. The trails that were accessible directly from the Speech House were a real treat and perfect for us since we did not have a car. Internet and cell service were mostly only available in the Lodge, so we needed to readjust our thinking and adapt our normal routines, which is a good thing. In our room some of usual creature comforts were a little lacking, but being in the forest in such an historic place with wonderful people more than made up for that! We can highly recommend the Speech House, especially to foreign travelers. "

"Lovely staff. In lovely surroundings "

"I stayed in room 15, it was horrible. Bathroom didnt have an external vents or a fan. Massive gap at the bottom of the door, very poorly maintained room."

"The general cleanliness and condition of this hotel was poor. The floor of the room was sloping and was quite dissorientating when walking into the bathroom. In the bathroom, the shower curtain was stained and looked unclean. The wastebin looked very poor with a rusted lid. Bathroom floor not very clean and the grouting was missing from the corners of the bath. The paint was peeling of the inside of the windowsill. In the room, the kettle was grubby and had to be washed before use, the glasses also had greasy prints on them and also had to be washed before use. The headboard was marked (small tears). The towels and bed linen were clean and we had a comfortable nights sleep. Certainly not worth the money we paid, and as it is, we cannot recommend staying here. On a plus, the staff were very polite and accommodating. "

"Had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Dragon Inn, the location was great and the room was comfortable and clean. Special shout out to the staff, especially Connor, who went above and beyond to help with a booking issue"
