The predominately English revues appear to reflect acceptance of standards somewhat less than we would expect in North America. Clearly we see things differently. I found this a very strange hotel from the keyhole of our room at two foot height to the temperature control which could only be seen with a torch, even with all the lights on. Quirky... More

Enjoyed our stay at Stoke Place found a very good deal via Trip Advisor. We arrived early and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. Bar area very pleasant and grounds looked lovelly even though we didn't have time to explore them. It did seem strange not having tea and coffee making facilities but this didn't detract from our stay.We... More

My fiancee and i stayed here over easter weekend - just for a one night break. We paid extra for a garden view room which, I have to say was a little dissapointing. There are some with full glass doors and on a summer's day it would be lovely looking on to the walled garden, but our room just had... More

I booked into the queen Anne suite at stoke place to prepare for my wedding which was being held at another local venue and to then stay the night with my new husband. From the moment we made our initial enquiry about booking the room and requesting an early check in, the staff did their upmost to be accommodating and... More

My partner and I stayed here at the end of April 2012 via a D,B&B deal on SecretEscapes. The hotel is very tastefully modernised and the gardens looked fabulous, although we did not explore them as it was raining throughout our stay. The food is excellent and the waiting staff are extremely attentive. However, I was surprised to find out... More

We stayed for 3 nights over Christmas 2011 and as there were so few guests we got upgraded to a lovely suite over looking the gardens. The room was very spacious, bed very comfy and bathroom a good size. The massive downer was that it was boiling in our room, even with the windows open, so in December we had... More

Had a 1 night stay to celebrate my birthday, booking a special package which included the room, breakfast and evening meal in the restaurant. The house itself is a lovely, grand, slightly quirky country estate with private gardens, lakes and woodlands. The grounds were all well kept and we enjoyed a walk around the lake (despite the rain!). The house... More

Stoke Place is fine but it could be a lot better. I think it probably depends on what room you get. If you get room 1, like I did, then your experience will be mediocre at best. This room sits right over the front entrance and you can pretty much hear everything that is being said. It is also tiny... More

We chose Stoke Place to hold a very special 50th birthday party, catering for over 40 guests for a sit down meal, entertainment, DJ and an open bar. We took 17 rooms and everything was organised remotely as we don't live in the UK, this included all menus, cakes, decorating the Room and liaising with our guests regarding accommodation. The... More
