Walton Hall Hotel & Spa by Sunday

Walton Hall Hotel & Spa by Sunday

10/10 Excellent
"Step back in time to this prestigious property. Set in a large complex of multiple buildings each having their own character. The main building harks back to the mid 1800’s when it was extensively refurbished and remains staggeringly beautiful. A must venue for weddings or conferences or whenever you want a large venue with character by the bucket full. You must come here at least once to view the history if nothing else. ***** for everything."
