COMMENTS
We pride ourselves on
our hospitality, friendliness and service and occasionally
people write, out of the blue, telling us we have been
successful - so here are some of our more recent, totally
unsolicited, letters and e-mails which might help to give
you a flavour of The Payton.

My daughter and I did enjoy our brief stay in Stratford. Your hotel was an ideal base - being so clean, comfortable and lovely - we will certainly recommend The Payton.

Peter and Brenda: thank you both SO much for making our stay so comfortable.
I wish we had stayed with you longer, and you're definitely going in in that
non-dairy travel book I"m going to write someday when I take a break from
babies and plant conservation!
Seriously, though, your place was so much like home, both Laily and I felt
so, and I wanted you to know your hospitality was deeply appreciated.

A beautiful house, combined with your hospitality and knowledge made for a most memorable weekend.
It is our intention to return to Stratford to take in Caesar later this summer; we shall of course be contacting you as soon as we know of our plans.
May I also compliment you on your website. It's design and content truly reflect the standards at The Payton.
Kind regards,

Dear Peter and Brenda
Just a quick note to say thank you for making Inger so welcome in your hotel.
Having made a similar trip to Denmark in May, I felt very lonely in my large hotel which could have been in any town in any part of the world. The second week was particularly hard.
She was surprised and delighted by the homely atmosphere at The Payton and it meant a lot to me to know she was happy with you.
If the opportunity arises where someone I know asks if I know of a place to stay in Stratford, I will have no hesitation in recomending The Payton. Thank you again.
