Stayed over at the Pear Tree with friends for one night in early December First impressions were very strong as this is a lovely old fashioned stone house set in picturesque gardens in the middle of countryside. Inside the decor is less pleasing seeming quite dated in an 80s floral/pink/chintz style. Receptionist was very pleasant and we were shown to... more

Pear Tree is a lovely building, in beautiful grounds, and easy to find. The room was small but comfortable. Dinner was excellent, well served, lovely food and a relaxing environment. Breakfast was disappointing, cold toast, over cooked egg and under cooked tomato! However, service was first class, from the moment we arrived. more

From the moment I pulled up in the taxi outside the Pear Tree I felt relaxed. I received the warmest of welcomes and was delighted with my bedroom which was very spacious and had homely touches such as fresh flowers, a decanter of sherry, homemade biscuits, fresh fruit and ducks in the bathroom! The best thing about my bedroom was... more

Room has nice views over well tended gardens. Room itself was spotless, with fresh fruit, drinks, double bed etc. Turned down beds in evening (and they even hung up my... more

I've been going (on and off) to the Pear Tree for the last 15 years. This time was dinner for 9 with two couples staying over. Despite having a full restaurant and a large private party (in another room) the service was excellent. Another wonderful meal in a great atmosphere. They also had a special on which was £55 for... more

A lovely hotel with friendly staff and pleasant rooms. The personal service is fantastic and the restaurant boasts one of the UK top 100 chefs, and it shows in the qualityof the menu and the food. First rate! The menu had it all, salmon, deer, beef, tuna and more and the desserts were to die for!! The hotel is very... more

I have traveled a good deal throughout my life. This was one of the best experiences I have ever had with lodging. It was more of a B&B, which to me is a good thing. The wonderful, warm, friendly accomodating staff met our every need. The beautiful gardens in the back of the stone house are tranquil and enchanting (even... more

Just a one night stay with family (all adult) but felt really welcome and comfortable from the moment we arrived. An early check-in was no problem (phone ahead to check). Tea in the library to welcome us. Attentive non-intrusive staff, hotel owner on site. Dining room in the conservatory, inventive varied menu presented with care and an excellent wine list.... more

We arranged to stay at the Pear Tree as a last special weekend away prior to arrival of our first child. We were really looking forward to a lovely stay and a great meal. We turned up only to find that our reservation had been cancelled 2 days before the weekend without anyone bothering to contact us. We had driven... more
