Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Hall's Croft has been closed to the general public since 2020 and has not formed part of any ticket offer since then. We do offer a three-house ticket which includes entrance to the Birthplace, Anne Hathaway's Cottage and Shakespeare's New Place. The last two properties closed for the winter from the 5th November and are due to reopen on the 10th of February and 16th of March respectively. If you want to contact us to confirm where you bought the ticket from we can investigate Info@shakespeare.org.uk

Another property associated with Shakespeare. This one belonged to his daughter, Susanna Hall. Passed it on the way to Holy Trinity Church and it looks an interesting place. Unfortunately you can only view from the outside as it's under renovation.

We only saw Hall's Croft from the open top bus which slowed down so we could get a good look. The gate looked closed though so don't know if you can go in anyway.

Was unable to visit the inside but the outside is a fine example of a period house, which originally belonged to John Hall, physician and son in law of William Shakespeare.

The house has a nice museum, with lovely authentic furnishings and interesting stories. The garden was very pretty and must look most impressive during the summer.

As Shakespeare's daughter's (Susanna) house, perhaps not the most well-known or most visited of the various houses. An interesting house and exhibits - some related to Susanna's husband profession as a physician being particularly of interest to small boys!. Lots of information on display boards but also informative staff on hand. Interesting and well- maintained gardens, a gift shop, and a cafe selling snacks and light meals.

We visited this because it was included on the ticket. The staff were helpful and friendly, there were a few interesting bits but it didn’t take long to look round.

The tearoom was closed for a private function which we were a bit disappointed about.

Enjoyed going around Hall's Croft. The gentleman at the reception was very informative and had a real enthusiasm for the history of the place.

I was impressed to learn it was the original building intact from the Tudor period. There was some really interesting items inside if your a history enthusiastic nut like me then you will enjoy looking around.

Inside, was lots of artefacts to see but not as immersive as Shakespeare's birthplace. The garden was very pretty and must look most impressive during the summer.

Lovely little cafe inside as well.
