Lots of parking, that was one of the good points. The lady I dealt with was pleasant enough. They don't open the kitchen on a Monday and they lock the pub up after the last booking arrived (about 7pm) and you are then left with no staff there. Dirty rooms, cobwebs and mould, wasp nest in the curtains. I bought a pint of beer witch I spat out on the floor because it was off and tested musty. The ballcock on the toilet is knackered (room 12) and I heard the sound of water trickling all night. The bed was clean though. I was tempted to book somewhere else but I'd been driving a long and had already paid to stay somewhere.

The rooms are beautifully decorated and the pub/hotel has a lovely oldie world feel to it. The surroundings were very peaceful. The service was also faultless - when we asked for a couple of things to be changed in the room it was done immediately. The Walnut Tree was excellent value for what we paid.
The only reason I have not given five stars is that the room was a little chilly when we arrived - but that resolved, and one mattress in our twin room (ref to landlord – the one nearest the window) could have done with a topper or updating. But that is not to denigrate what is a really lovely hotel for a great price.

I stayed here last year and gave it a 5-star review. Naturally, being in the same area I stayed here again. The experience wasn’t as nice. Apparently, it’s under new management and they don’t have the necessary staff for full service yet. It’s a lovely bucolic location and a historic building so I wish the management best of luck.

Nice place, clean, uncomfortable.
Easy on arrival, turned up at 2245, dark and not obvious where to go but eventually found entrance round the back. Called a no. and let us in. Clean bedding, Double bed really comfy but the old hard futon that made 2 short singles was very uncomfortable and we slept quite badly. Left at 08:30 and Nowhere to leave keys so had to call the no. again and wake owner up.

The Wallnut Tree,West Camel, base for excursion
The first impression upon entering reception (it's in the pub) is that you feel like you've walked into the crime series Midsummer Murder and are looking to find Barneby.
Our room was great, large bed, nice bathroom.
You are greeted very warmly and uprightly, and you feel like you've been treated to a very good life.
The Walnut Tree is located in a small village (approx. 400 inhabitants) and is very peaceful and full of character, making it the perfect place if you want peace and relaxation.
We were the guests who stayed the longest, with 18 nights. We ate dinner every day and sometimes lunch too. The food is excellent; we give the kitchen 11 out of 10 stars. I can only recommend the food.
During our time as guests, we became very close to the landlord and his wife and the staff, and a friendship developed. Furthermore, when you are open to other people like we are, we were also able to make contact with the local residents, and all of this gave us the feeling that we were part of the community.
We would therefore like to express our thanks to the landlord, Peter and his wife Janine, and of course to the staff (Kira, Barbara, Megan, Rachel, and the young bartender).
I would also like to express our thanks to the local people (Jeff, Joe, Paul, and Sharon); it's nice to have friends, thank you.
We can definitely recommend The Walnut Tree and we will be back.
PS: It's a village hotel with a pub, and not a Big City Hotel, where you have 24 Hour service.

Nice little pub style accommodation, very quiet. Meals were good, no breakfast available but there was a nice little bakery around the corner and other options in the next town.

I stay weekly in different hotels and I can confidently say this is in my top 3 of the worst for cleanliness. Booked as a last minute due to location which was fine but the room itself was disappointing. No WiFi password given or any information leaflets in the room. The shower was held up by a cable tie… Which they couldn’t even trim down either. The water would change from scolding hot to freezing cold every 10 seconds. Hairs on the tiles. The hot tap for the sink would have to run for a good 5 minutes to have hot water. Stains to the floor around the toilet weren’t very appealing and the toilet itself was disgustingly dirty with urine still visible around the rim with tissue inside and whatever that is on the toilet lid when I lifted it up was revolting. On pulling the duvet back there were hairs and also black staining. It’s quite clear the bedding wasn’t even changed from the previous occupants. It really wasn’t a pleasant experience and for the price of £120 aswell. I can’t comment on the food as I was very reluctant to try this after seeing the room but I can’t comment mention there was sufficient parking. On check out this is unmanned and nobody around… Just drop your keys in the basket and slip outside the side door. I can see why!

Really enjoyed our stay, the room was spotless and comfortable, breakfast was lovely and the staff and locals very welcoming in the pub. The only issue we had was the temperature of the shower, we couldn't turn the temperature down and it was so hot it was burning our skin, we did inform staff. Not the end of the world as there was a nice bath, my partner however has a knee injury and did struggle with the bath.
There was plenty of parking, the location was quiet and it was a perfect chill setting, would highly recommend.
