My friend and I had a fun stay and really enjoyed the food at Amelia's restaurant and our server, Helen, made our stay. The grounds are so beautiful. Both the supper and one of our breakfasts were not warm enough although delicious. Our room had many stains on the carpet and we felt that with some upgrades and changes, this place could be even more amazing!

The stay was good overall, we had a few issues with cleanliness however. The sheets has makeup stains, the wine glasses had lips marks at 2 different occasion (in our room and at breakfast), the staff would limit our orange juice to one glass at breakfast, there was no coffee in our room. There is room for improvement. The location is beautiful and close to downtown Picton and restaurants, shops.

Not happy to have paid what I did and get a dirty

Our room was not clean. There were disgusting stains on the carpet and I'm not quite sure what else. Not sure if it was medication or a candy or something else in front of screen door.

The room was fantastic. Large tub, large room, king sized bed, massive balcony, etc. The property was great for walking around. Quiet and quaint. The complimentary breakfast was delicious. All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful. We would love to come back and try one of the cooking classes they have. I would recommend The Waring House to anyone and everyone looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway. The price was great as well.

Very quaint place. We were in an older building first that was musty and lots of bugs in the room. We then upgraded to a newer building that was a lot nicer. The rooms were nice. The shower was small; but I made it work (and I’m 6’2). Very serene place, well situated close to downtown picton.

Enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was included and was awesome with a full menu, not a buffet. Our server was excellent and very friendly. There were only 2 servers with 15-16 tables and yet they were super efficient. The TV in our room did not work the first night and the front desk did not return my call. It worked the next day before a service man arrived.

Although the room was clean and accommodations were comfortable. The ceiling in our room above the bathroom door starting leaking during the night. I woke up to the sound of water and things falling around 4:30am. Waking up to find part of the tile around the light fixture had fallen. I turned off the air conditioning unit as the blower was just above this tile and light fixture. I couldn’t get back to sleep as I was worried something else would come tumbling down. I alerted the front desk and showed photos. There was no way this kind of damage occurred in one night as there was staining on the adjacent tiles. No apology was made, no offer to reduce the cost of the room. The pub food and service was great as well as the live music in the evening. Breakfast was great, if you ask for orange juice though, you will get half a glass. The breakfast wait staff seemed overwhelmed, we felt like a burden.
