    I had a wonderful stay at this property hosted by Whetstone. the host was extremely responsive and even helped us find an alternative property last minute. the facilities were excellent, and the property itself was comfortable and secure. I especially appreciated the convenience of accessing the property via codes instead of keys, which made it easier for our group of four guests. I highly recommend this host to others visiting the area around Cadbury World and shopping centers.

    The surroundings were quiet, clean, and had a nice home away from home feel. Cons: the only downside was that the property was not obvious to find.

    Liked good rooms!

    Location was convenient - easy access to Winterbourne House and Garden. Staff was very amiable and affable and provided us with a dishwasher, a refrigerator, and an electric kettle. Made own meals in kitchen. We could see garden from our window.

    The location was fantastic, close to Cadbury World and shopping centers. The facilities were comfortable and clean, and the entry system being keyless made it so convenient. Despite a minor issue with the heating in one of the bedrooms, the host was quick to respond and provide an electric heater. The wifi was excellent, allowing me to work and stream smoothly. Plus, the towels were lovely! I highly recommend this hotel.

    Loved feeling like a detective, searching for the nonexistent extension leads and curtains. The towel setup was truly a masterpiece.

    Oh, how I enjoyed that hour of attempted entry! The owner's gracious offer to keep my money in exchange for a future stay was the perfect cherry on top.

    I had a great value for my money at The Whetstone. The room was cozy and nicely decorated, with comfortable beds. The location was fantastic, within walking distance of the university. The staff treated me incredibly well, always responding promptly and resolving any issues quickly. it was a much nicer experience than staying in a regular hotel.

    The only thing that could have made the breakfast better would be more variety in the choices offered.

    Comfy and clean rooms with good facilities. the keyless entry system was really helpful, and there was plenty of parking available. the location was fantastic, close to major attractions and shopping centers.

    The beds were a major disappointment, as they were not as advertised. They were actually two single beds pushed together, which made for an uncomfortable sleep.

    The Whetstone was definitely worth the money. The room was cozy and clean, with great facilities and quick heating. The location was fantastic, close to Cadbury World and shopping centers, with a nice and clean surrounding area. The staff was responsive and easy to reach whenever I needed assistance.

    The morning meal could have been improved with a better selection of breakfast items.
