Friendly welcoming staff, reasonably priced food. Room was a good sized twin, unfortunately the walls were paper thin and we could hear the water system empty every time someone used any toilet facilities . Good onsite parking, lovely village pub.

Change not always for the better
Appear to be short of staff. Noisy overnight. Continually banging of outside door. Probably due to weather but very annoying nonetheless. The chain that now owns this hotel hasn’t done it any favours. Admittedly it sometime ago but wouldn’t stay again.

Disappointing stay
We looked forward to our visit but sadly were disappointed. We arrived at 3pm but were told we couldn't check in as the system was down. Completely understand things like this can happen but when we asked when it would be possible we were just told no idea, then told they wouldn't be serving food that night (a Friday) as the chef had gone home and then the barman disappeared. At 4.30pm a long standing resident said he could show us to our room. The towels and bedding were clean but the carpet was filthy and the bathroom just had the empty toiletry bottles from a previous resident. The continental breakfast the next day was fine. Perhaps we just caught them on a bad day but after our experience, we won't return.

Uncomfortable mattress, friendly staff
Stayed here for a one night stopover. Ideally located off the A303, all the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Evening meal and breakfast food, everything was good. Our room however let it down, window blind broken and obvious it was. So our room was very bright in the morning. The mattress on the bed is beyond redemption, springs gone in a couple of places. It caused a very uncomfortable sleep and it really soured the stay. Furniture and carpet appear to fairly new and though the bedroom is small the room good value. Bathroom is a little tired but acceptable. Hopefully the owners invest in some new mattresses.

Stayed 5 nights. Room decor tired. Had to ask for carpet to be hoovered as it clearly hadn’t been. There was a shortage of bath towels for 2 days as they had not come back from the laundry company so extra hand towels were provided. On 2nd day a member of staff took some from an unused room for us. Hadn’t realised until day 2 that we needed to register our car details for the car park on a computer at reception as we were not told on checking in and found out by chance. On our 4th breakfast I had to ask for mugs and spoons but it wasn’t the usual staff member on duty. Breakfast continental as advertised but simple. The receptionist and usual breakfast lady were very helpful and pleasant.

3* tops, dirty upon arrival but helpful staff
Walnut Tree is okay, no more than 3*. The staff were friendly and accommodating however there were issues that shouldn't have even been present. Upon arrival it was evident that my room No.1 had not been cleaned. The sheets had been changed but the carpet was covered in "bits", there were cobwebs and the bathroom had hair in the bath tub, on the floor, lotion in the tub, half an earring, soap scum all over the sink taps and floor and the loo hadn't even been flushed (gross). I couldn't put up with it so told the woman who checked me in - Sharon?? - and she seemed mortified and disappointed with her "cleaning staff". She came and cleaned the bathroom herself and quickly hoovered and made it habitable but it obviously wasn't the standard it was meant to be. This isn’t an expensive hotel but cleanliness is a non negotiable. The sheets were clean but the mattress was uncomfortable, the curtains don't block out much light and the ceiling lights were bare bulbs - no shades. I am grateful for Sharon fixing the problems, but i wish there hadn't been said problems to begin with after a 2.5hr drive to get there.

Nice area and helpful staff. The downside was that there a fairly loud humming from what sounded like an extractor fan had been left on somewhere and which was constant throughout the the night and made sleeping tricky. I was in room 2 but it was elsewhere in the building.
