The welcome from Karen and John was warm and friendly. The Garden Room, double bedded was beautifully presented and very calm with its aspect over the garden. Breakfast was delicious and attentive. Immaculately clean. We'll stay again and would recommend it to anyone else. Ruth and Pat More

Tinto House is a pleasant place to stay in an extremely convenient location if you want to walk around Hay on Wye. The hostess, Karen, is very accommodating and prepares a good breakfast. The ambiance of the house is charming; the room clean and nicely decorated. We had a huge bathroom (Blue Room). The Blue Room is located at the... More

I was treated to a birthday weekend in Hay and stayed at Tinto House after being double booked elsewhere. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise and was much nicer than the original B+B booked !

This is our second visit at Tinto House .We have all intentions to come back in 2011 again!

The breakfast was excellent and it was great to have freshly cooked, piping hot scrambled eggs rather than the rubbery versions normally... More

We stayed at Tinto House in Hay last year. It is like stepping back in time going into this place, More a home than a hotel- the dining room is furnished with antiques and pretty china. Our bedroom was in the garden annex, it was spacious, comfortable and beautifully furnished. The garden itself is worth a visit. It is a... More

Central and serene--this was well nigh perfect accommodation in Hay-on-Wye. Although I'd stayed in other Hay B&Bs before and been satisfied, the Tinto House website looked promising and certainly worth a try. It turns out that Karen Clare and her husband John have created a small jewel in the heart of Hay. Their welcome is warm, the rooms are comfortable,... More
