Stayed here for one night for a wedding. The room was very spacious albeit a bit dated. The bathroom was very clean and bedding was clean. Unfortunately the downside was the lack of staff at the bars I waited nearly 20 minutes to get served on a couple of occasions the young girl was doing her best but was on her own you would think with it being a wedding on more staff would have been available.

Lovely location and grounds however the room was bit dated and could have done with a deep clean, cobwebs and spiders in the corners. Bathroom was clean but the shower screen was leaking at the corner so the floor became soaking. Bed was comfortable but I wouldn't stay again.

The rooms are big, clean and the beds are very comfy. The location is excellent and great for getting to the airport. Staff however are the slowest I've ever encountered. Spent 15 minutes waiting to get checked in with only one person in front of us in the line. Then we went to the bar for a drink and spent 15 minutes with the disinterested barman ignoring us (we were the only ones at the bar). The drinks are expensive and you're certainly not paying for the service. The bar was covered in dirty glasses and the tables were quite mucky.

Can't complain about anything really. Young barman was professional and polite even though he was doing 10 jobs at once. We had the gammon steak in the bar, the steak could of done with being rested before plating up as the plate got a little swamped by juice /fat.but we enjoyed it none the less. Comfy bed, clean room, jacuzzi bath and nice buffet breakfast.

Had afternoon tea with my mum. Pleasant experience. Lady serving was lovely and helpful. Watched a wedding so was nice bit of violin music. Bit of a shock at price of 2 prosecco's but its a one off not something we do often.

What a lovely Xmas for me and my husband. Lovely place great staff warm welcome. Food lovely. The room was fantastic four poster bed great veiw. Only thing I didn't like was going for dinner it was really uncomfortable and painfully silent. You had to whisper to have a conversation. I asked the waiter could we have the 3 course meal in our room no problem at all and was delicious. With great service Breakfast was great to. Even with the dinner experience. Would definitely recommend and go back. Thank you.

The building is beautiful. The setting and grounds are equally outstanding. All complimented by the staff and high standards of dinner cuisine. Included is a photo from a request I made for plate and cutlery in my room as I had to get a takeaway while working in the evening. Staff took the extra care to provide a napkin and fold it in a stylised rose. Totally unnecessary, but really made a difference to how I felt and made a big difference to my evening. Beautiful place, matched by its people.

My partner and I booked this hotel for the bed, breakfast and 3 course meal offer. We arrived a little before check in so had a drink in the bar area and played some board games. Which was all very pleasant. We stayed in room 329 which was huge with two beds (a double and a single) and a seating area. The bathroom had a spa bath which was a great little extra.

Be sure to bring bubble bath to enjoy it fully. We found the room to be very comfortable, however the room was very cold. Despite having the radiator on max for several hours, we still had to request an additional portable heater to heat the room. The staff were very accommodating and attended to our request straight away. A definite highlight of staying here is the food.

The 3 course meal we had was unbelievable. Our server was also very down to Earth and friendly (sadly did not get his name). The food was so incredibly tasty and well portioned. If I had to be picky, my only critique would be that I found the crumble topping quite hard on my teeth. Breakfast was served in the conservatory so it was nice to see all parts of the hotel.

There was a good selection of hot and cold foods to chose from (cereals, cold meats, pastries, full English etc). Overall a great stay, and worthwhile visit if just for the food.

We were at a family wedding. The food was outstanding. The prices are expensive but we are in Cheshire. All the family agreed that the sausage for breakfast were gorgeous!

A family group of eight booked an overnight stay with dinner and breakfast at the hotel. We dined in a private dining room, courtesy of the hotel which was excellent. The young lady who waited on us was very professional and she was very attentive throughout the evening regarding drinks. The food was superb! The large bedrooms although slightly dated were spotlessly clean. We would recommend a stay at the hotel and the family will definitely be making a return visit. Thank you to all the staff for making our stay so great.

Dreadful Customer service - Used to be good but they now take wedding bookings above everything else - and is so faceless and corporate! and block the rest of us! - I guess you can only stay here on a week day -Awful! They will learn that when the Covid 19 knock on effect is finally over and they don't have the same demand for block booking weddings - they will be in trouble as they wont have the loyal repeat business from past customers. and they think this is the way forwards!

In 3 years time this place will be gone! They haven't a clue about how to run a proper business They can't even send an email! they have poor management and even worse staff Its a SHAME as I used to love this place when they actually cared! I won't be returning to this once decent hotel - that really so do need to get a grip!

The car park is a good walk from the main building, expect to pay 5 for a small bottle of beer, the staff are friendly and helpful. The food was excellent and well presented. I would definitely recommend going here.

Visited for Afternoon Tea. An absolute delight. Sandwiches very freshly made. Cakes nice and light. Our waitress was very helpful. Reception staff also. Surroundings are idyllic. Gardens beautifully maintained. Would thoroughly recommend. 5/5 from me.

A lovely afternoon tea, everything was very fresh, the scones were still warm. The leaf tea was delicious a fabulous blend. Loved the serenity of the room, the sun was shining which enhanced the atmosphere. The waitress was very attentive and polite. We would definitely recommend the afternoon tea with prosecco.
