    Very good value close to Preston.
    • Leisure trip

    • Executive King Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    On arrival a short drive leads to a barrier controlled by reception. You can’t hear what is being said due to traffic noise. If more than one vehicle arrives at a time the trailing car would possibly hang out onto the carriageway. Main and ancillary stairway carpets let the side down being well-worn and rather fusty smelling. Restaurant lacks ambience and food is rather variable in quality. One of my main course side choices came so late I had to reject it. On the plus side my bill was discounted without asking.

    Very convenient for a trip to Barton Grange garden centre and an overnight stay. Pleasingly decorated hotel in pleasant grounds. Staff were helpful and accommodating. The room was bright and fresh looking. There is a nice pool/sauna/steam room on hand. Food was edible.

    Spa facilities were a bit sparce. No beds to lie on and very small sauna. Needed to be happy with who you were with in there. Steam room was bigger and better. Pool wasn’t very big and floor around it was slippy. One of our party slipped but luckily didn’t fall. Staff sometimes didn’t know what they were doing and no skimmed for coffee was a big no no for me. One of us couldn’t have a Mocktail because they had no syrup apparently, but we think it was because they didn’t know how to make them. No real dedicated lounge for guests meant we felt like we were sat in a through faith.

    The bedroom was very nice and comfortable bed. Rain noise kept me awake but everything else was ok. Breakfast was nice as was our evening meal

    Didn’t like waiting 90 mins to get access to the room even though we arrived at the time specified for check in. A complimentary drink was provided but I do feel 90 minutes was a long time. The food in the restaurant at night was quite expensive considering the portion sizes.

    Liked where it was situated. Liked outside. The room was nice and the facilities were good.

    A comfortable hotel, so far the most professional I have found on my frequent visits to the area
    • Business trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Deluxe King Room - Non-Smoking
    • Stayed 1 night

    Over £7.00 a pint! Breakfast service not as good as the preceding evening, Table not ready despite arriving at booked time. Tepid, gritty coffee. Assumption that I would 'help myself to the cold continental buffet' led to an inordinate 25 minute wait for scrambled eggs which left me twiddling thumbs.

    A well lit, large, accessible and secure car park. Efficient check-in. Comfortable, airy room. Welcoming and friendly waiting staff served a better than average evening meal. Slept well and awoke refreshed.

    The breakfast wasn't great but my recommendations were sent in to the cook. Tomatoes cut length ways and not as you would on a breakfast. Sausages were under cooked . Black pudding was only cooked on one side. Beans came out in ramekin which had a skin layer over the top. Expensive jams and other items you could really see that the hotel was trying to impress, shame the cook didn't know how to use their kitchen effectively.

    The staff were great , the service was excellent the way we booked in and the amenities were open until late where exceptional .

    Our room was mostly clean but didn’t appear to have been hoovered as I found several large chunks of skin obviously picked off someone’s foot! Once I’d disposed of those in a tissue it was fine.

    Dinner was excellent, staff were lovely and the spa facilities were fine. Pool was a little busy in the afternoon but me and my daughter had it to ourselves for an hour in the morning. Location was excellent for breaking up a journey to see family in Scotland. Will definitely stay again.

    Only fault was a very noisy group of boys/men in the pool. They were splashing and playing. But they were everywhere so people who just wanted to quietly swim couldn’t. It spoilt the spa experience.

    Breakfast was amazing, it had everything you could want. Restaurant was very nice looking out onto gardens. Room was so quiet and cosy. Views over garden.

    The quality of the food at breakfast (hot food only).

    Our room was a good size and nicely decorated. The bed was comfortable and there was sufficient tea/coffee etc. Bottled water was available too which was a nice touch. The dinner in the Walled Garden was lovely, the choice was sufficient, the food was excellent. The only thing which was slightly disappointing was the breakfast the following morning. The quality of the hot food wasn't as you would have expected, judging how well the dinner was presented.
