In parts Walton hall dates back to the 1500s. If walls could speak they would tell of royal love affairs and society gatherings, of toil and craftsmanship to the highest degree - scenes that are only bestowed upon such quintessential English stately homes.
The tale of the Mordaunt family, who created the ancestral home of Walton Hall, goes back to the 1500s, when Robert of Turvey in Bedfordshire married local heiress, Barbara L'Estrange. The oldest parts, the Hall's cellars and front of the estate's chapel, date back to this time.
Walton Hall sits in 65 acres of countryside, just 7 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon and 7 miles from Warwick. You'll arrive along tree-lined driveways, gaze over manicured lawns and relax by the large carp lake.
Relaxation & Pampering
As you'd expect there's an extensive list of facilities for you to use. The large leisure club is close to the Orchard, Woodland and Stable Block dwellings on the estate, so you don't have far to walk. There is a good selection of beauty treatment rooms and the care and service is second to none.
You can choose from a wide range of treatments, from facials to body massages and de-toxifying body wraps. The spa welcomes both men and women.
If beauty's not your thing, you can improve your fitness on the floodlit tennis court or improve your golf swing with a PGA lesson on site. Plus there's a Wella professional hair salon on site if you want a top to toe treatment whilst you're here.

The Hall's history is colourful and exciting and includes a scandalous love affair by a former Lady of the house with the Prince of Wales - later King Edward VII.
You're not far from Stratford-upon-Avon, so you could take a ride to see the birthplace of William Shakespeare. If you're with family, then Warwick Castle is definitely worth a visit. This is classed as Britain's Greatest mediaeval Experience.
