Excellent hotel,spotless everywhere, staff very friendly and very helpful, will even book tickets for you for example to the Cog Railway at Mount Washington which is fantastic, wrap up warm it was freezing at the top. Breakfast was cereals, muffins, bagels, yohurts, fruit etc., fresh and plentiful. No where to eat out on site but you have kitchen area if you want to cook for yourselves or very good restaurants about 3/4 miles away but we chose to have a take away delivered to the hotel on 2...

Fantastic. We have been travelling for the last 10 days and only use the Hilton group as we are diamond members and I have remained loyal to the group. We have found the Hilton hotels to be shabby nothing special and expensive. We decided to change to try this hotel and WOW …. It is fantastic. It is modern clean and has great facilities in the room including real,glasses and mugs …not paper cups which we have had over the last week. I wish they had a chain for this hotel as I would have...

Mark and Lyn were somewhat surprised to find we had arrived in Meredith by bus! Not to be recommended. Taxied up to their charming hotel. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, homemade granola, yoghurt and raspberry couli, followed by poached pears and Mark's soda bread. Lyn took us down to the lake for a trip and collected us in the afternoon. They could not have been kinder or more concerned that we enjoyed our stay. We loved it.

I don't usually review, but the Ballard was such a lovely experience! It's a beautiful, historic inn, and our room was comfortable, nicely furnished, and spotless. There are a couple of comfortable sitting rooms for the guests to use, and the view across the trees down to a lake from the veranda was lovely. Breakfast was delicious, including a fresh home-baked sweet loaf every day, and there were the cookies every afternoon. Brian and Lynn could not have been more friendly, welcoming and...

A fantastic family owned and run Inn with a brilliant welcome. These people really care and are passionate about the guest experience. A beautiful historic property with a lovely warm ambience. Comfortable rooms, spotlessly clean and in the perfect spot for exploring the squam lake region and the northern NH scenic trails.
A lot of sustainable practice and locally sourced ingredients adds to the experience.

Great view from patio - best part of the stay and all room amenities in place but very dated room with no decorative touches- really basic - lacked personality. Bed was comfortable.
Ready for a refresh and some modernisation - just a little more attractive decor.
Lots of facilities - pools, games etc.
Bar / restaurant staff were great and helpful.
