Very comfortable. Lovely breakfast and excellent food in the restaurant. Staff were very friendly.
Large Rooms nice Breakfast lots of parking
A little dated in places
Bedroom fantastic
Reception
We liked that this is a quirky, traditional hotel, its unlike any of the well-known brands where every room is the same. Reasonably priced bar meals and drinks, we stayed prior to flying out from Manchester airport the following day. Easy access to the airport and to Knutsford where there are lovely bars, shops and cafes. Plenty of car parking at the hotel. There was a function on when we were there, but this did not impact on our stay/comfort/noise levels.
Nothing, it was all lovely
Personnel très aimable et bonne literie
L’éclairage dans les chambres inadéquat. l’obligation de demander des assiettes, des bols pour le petit déjeuner où cela manquait.
Location, bar, restaurant
it took 3 times to get an acceptable room, booked executive room for kingsize bed, given feature room with a double, then given a dark damp and dog smelling room that no-one would stay in , finally got a larger bedroom with windows , no damp and a large bed -decor ok but not as expected for price. Also requested bedroom on ground floor for my mother 89 and got one up a flight of stairs - however no other room available close to reception so we took this.
it was ok just bit tired. staff in the restaurant were great just a few niggles
it was a bit tired but ok
Location and staff
Nothing
Great stopover on a trip up to Scotland from the south. Easy to find off the M6 motorway. Unexpectedly lovely grounds. Easy parking. Much nicer and cheaper than a faceless chain hotel on the motorway.
Nothing.
location was great for getting to Manchester airport. Service was great.
Food in the restaurant was expensive given the portions and quality.
Lovely big room, well furnished with roomy bathroom all spotlessly clean. Plenty of choice for breakfast with the option to eat on the terrace next to the lake. Meals available in the restaurant or bar ( lovely comfortable seating and decor). We opted for a lighter meal in the bar and were not disappointed. Food was lovely and well presented.
Personally there was nothing we didn't like although I expect some would prefer a swimming pool
Nice friendly hotel
Rooms are a bit tired
Lovely country Hotel, very pleasant location, great staff. The bedroom was very spacious and comfy. Evening meal in the restaurant was delicious and breakfast was good with lots of choice. A nice outside terrace next to a small lake where you could eat and have a drink, weather was good too!
It was clean and the ground were beautiful
Noting
Location near M6 in countryside Helpful and friendly staff
Room was very dark with inadequate lighting Dated furniture + fittings
Initial problem with the room was resolved quickly. Great staff Bar snack, breakfast food, restaurant and ambience were great
Coffee at breakfast. Disappointed that it was instant and a small cup - a 'proper' coffee pot would have been appreciated
I had a nice room with plenty of space
It’s very homely
One of the things that really stood out about this venue was the owner. They had a real presence throughout the day, taking the time to speak to guests and making sure everyone was enjoying themselves. It was clear they genuinely cared that everything ran smoothly, and their hands-on approach made the whole experience feel personal and welcoming. It really added to the atmosphere and made the day even more special.
Lovely hotel with beautiful grounds . Staff were excellent . The room was big and spacious with a great big bed . Food was exceptional !
The location & gardens are lovely; bed & linen were comfy & clean
The room wasn't cleaned properly (used sanitary towel in the bin), the staff didn't know what could or couldn't be charged to the room, and then were rude when asking us to pay... tried to charge us for breakfast even though we booked b&b... And when we checked out, tried to charge us for the bar tab & breakfast again!!! Location is great, staff not so much. Hotel defo needs an electrical inspection too, sockets & light switches were clearly wired up by the gardener.
Smooth Check in and check out. polite, helpful and friendly staff. great breakfast. beautiful grounds
some parts of communal areas ar a little bit tired.
Excellent stay, had a top floor room which was lovely and quiet. The food in the restaurant was first rate as was the breakfast and service received from all the team during my stay. I look forward to returning.
Nothing- excellent all round
The grounds. Plentiful parking. Nice lounge areas to sit
Over priced food and drink.Dated furniture in bedrooms. Skimping on details eg plastic flimsy glasses in rooms.
An elegant property with surrounding area
Only staying one night
Quiet room well away from the wedding on that day. Spacious.
Very tired looking in places. Moth eaten carpet by settee in room. Signs of damp round windows. Asked for walk in shower but it was shower over bath. Maybe the room was not used often but was very quiet.
Our room was superb, the outdoor area is lovely, the staff were first class and the food was good
The bathroom was a little bit tired could do with a little bit of a makeover, however I realise this is a big investment.
Location was good for a one night stop over. Very comfortable spacious room
There was nothing to dislike We will be back
Nice room. The staff in the restaurant for breakfast were very pleasant, as were the reception staff.
The tea and coffee facilities in the room could have been improved; the room looked tired and needed a refurb. There was only 1 fan in a large room on a hot day/evening. The breakfast was not great.
Was v clean, lovely outside seating areas, easy to park, Bar meals were of good quality and pleasant bar area.Staff were friendly.Despute a wedding event our room was v quiet.
Nice bathroom but water leaked around the shower screen.Reported it to reception..
I love the friendly feel of this hotel, nice staff, good meals
My shower this morning was scalding hot. I did report it to the receptionist before I left
Nice relaxed environment in a great setting,good food great room
Just a really lovely English property. Felt you were on holiday. Lovely character rather than standard new hotel.
Location Staff The building Outside well looked after Good parking Main rooms and bar was nice
Bed wasnt the comfiest Small bedroom, bathroom felt bigger Price of food and drink Bigger beds would be better but understand room small so may not be able to fit
We stayed for a wedding. Our room was lovely. Big and bright with a nice bathroom.
We stayed in the Buckingham room. No fridge and the bed wasn’t as big as I expected. Just the size of a normal double when I paid for a large double. Very uncomfortable mattress too. I woke up every time my husband turned over !
Location just right. Staff friendly and helpful. Food good.
No lift. Steps to rooms and breakfast room. Bathroom needs deep clean. Lumpy mattress.

Last minute booking and was great value lovely bar and restaurant with lovely gardens perfect for our little dog to explore
Long walk to our room and no view but for price we paid we did not mind
Beautiful place! Best sleep during this trip.
Breakfast good
Due to traffic congestion issues we checked in late, and the hotel was unable or unwilling to provide us with any food after 10 am
The Receotionists were very helpful and welcoming. I think this hotel is excellent value for money, in a peaceful setting. Parking was included in the price. Breakfast has a range of options. My room had a lovely view over the garden.
N/A
The room was spacious and pleasant outlook ,grounds were lovely . staff were friendly and helpful
Although dog friendly there were no obvious bins for waste . Also the bath/shower really need bath mats as the bath was very slippery .
Staff very helpful and pleasant. Food excellent. Location for us is close to airport Thank you to all
Pleasant grounds in a quiet location. Furnishings in bedroom were good, with two easy chairs, and the provision of both a bath and shower was nice.
Breakfast buffet was mediocre, and the coffee was cold. The bedroom was fairly stuffy.
Beautiful grounds great if you want to take the dog for a quick trot before bed.
Nothing
Lovely grounds, easy access to M6. Huge comfortable room with lovely comfortable beds and nice en suite. Comfortable bar and good food. Very dog friendly. Excellent breakfast. Great stopover travelling from Scotland to the south.
Nothing
Nice relaxed feel, helpful friendly staff
The wedding was a great function
There was faeces up the toilet cubicle wall and on the floor opposite the function room during the function. Our room had a horrible smell and the mattress was like a bouncy castle and we did not feel it reflected the £233 price tag for one night.
location, outdoors areas, breakfast
Small room, no aircon so room was hot & stuffy, our shower was under the roof slope so had to bend down to shower
The staff was amazing, especially the manager and security. The room was better than expected, too, and views of the garden top class
Nothing I highly recommend it
Nice location and good price
Was good, maybe needs a lick of paint here and there
Beautiful hotel and grounds, great location, delicious food, comfortable room and bar area, staff very helpful
Electricity kept going off, bathroom and outside of building a little worn but would still recommend
Beautifully presented, very helpful staff. Nice to see a family-owned business with the owner on the premises, and his personal involvement shows. Both restaurant and bar menu were available until 9.30pm in the bar. The standard of the food was high. Hotel is very well placed for Manchester airport, and to beak a long journey north, as we were doing. Would be pleased to stay there again
Great for a shorter stay, but if we were staying longer, a pool and gym would have been good to have. We would consider bringing an annual 3 day conference here, but those delegates expect a pool and gym. CCTV in the car park would also be appreciated, plus a poo bin near the house as well as in the car park. Top marks for welcoming dogs though!
Location ... Where we needed to be with access to motorway south.
No view from window. Spa bath did not work.
The room was huge and beds very comfortable The bathroom was lovely with a good shower
Breakfast was ok but hot food was only lukewarm Very disappointed with my meal in the restaurant The bar food looked better
Location
Nothing
Good location
Decor a little tired
Gorgeous gardens and nice location
Hotel was cold and so was the bedroom not enough staff
a good size room with a very comfortable bed, good breakfast and bar meal. There was also plenty of parking space and easy access to Knutsford and the motorway.
bathroom was in need of an upgrade, although the shower was powerful.
Location is perfect breakfast finishes 9:30 a little too earily
Thd place is beautiful
Lovely location for a wedding.
Bed too soft
Nice friendly staff,breakfast hot and delicious,beautiful grounds and plenty of free car parking. The bed was also huge and very comfortable.
I thought the pillows were abit hard but my husband didn’t so….
Staff were atrocious, the place in general, in my opinion (and I stay in quite few hotels) should be shut down!
Untrained staff, the whole experience was awful
Very cosey and quiet.
Massive room, massive and very comfortable bed, great shower, big bath with lots of hot water, nice soft clean towels, good in room tea/coffee etc., decent TV, great breakfast (hot, good selection, and decent quality. Pastries were lush!). Set in really lovely grounds, nice bar with good beer selection. I ate in the bar and had Cumberland sausage and mash with onion gravy - Very Good, and reasonably priced.
Nothing particularly.
Location, character & lovely grounds. Good food & drink, helpful efficient staff & a comfortable bed.
Friendly polite staff
Fridge in room intermittently on/off through night leading to broken sleep. No means of turning it off. Sadly I wouldn’t stay again for that very reason.
Everything
Spa bath not working, and only found out later in the evening when settled in, and running bath and too late to ask to change rooms.
Beautiful grounds
Very dated decor, poor quality room facilities and no soundproofing between rooms.
The room was spacious and comfortable as was the bed . The Staff were great - there was a mix up with the booking and they hotel gave me a complimentary drink and upgraded me for a breakfast. Great location and the design and decoration of the hotel was excellent . It was a really relaxing stay.
The price for the Room Only was a little steep.
Great location, beautiful grounds, exceptional value.
Reception area very poor
Bedrooms excellent
Large clean room. Evening meal was good as was breakfast. Easy plentiful safe parking. Good location for Dunham Massey Hall where we were visiting. Lovely gardens with fountains and a lake.
Staff pleasant but not particularly friendly Only two lamps worked in bedroom when I queried I was told that you had to put them on in a particular order. This was not shown anywhere in the room and lamps still didn’t work. Furniture in room was dated. TV information did not work. Once TV turned off a blue light shone in the room all night. Had to walk through a number of corridors to get to room. This was not shown on booking details and would have been difficult for anybody with mobility issues. Fire alarm went off but when we looked for the instructions on where to meet the frame which should have details had a blank piece of paper in it. This is against all health and safety regulations. View from room was a roof and was disappointing as the outside areas were so beautiful. Although our dinner was nice there was absolutely no green vegetables. When we asked for some we were begrudgingly given four tenderstem broccoli at a cost of £4.95. Bar area was cold with portable heaters which were insufficient. It wasn’t a particularly cold night. For us this hotel was nowhere near 4 star, we stayed in a three star the night before which was far superior in every way and considerably cheaper.
Remoteness of it
Old fashioned
Lovely hotel, great staff
Nothing
Great bedrooms
Reception area
That all coffee isnt included with breakfast, you pay for an expensive breakfast and then they charge you extra for a cappuccino.
Friendly receptionusts, bar staff
Staff friendly and welcoming. Food good.
Room was large but was tired and needs a refurb. Although we were made welcome with our dog we had to eat in lounge which was okay for evening. However at breakfast we felt forgotten we had to keep asking for service on both mornings, and the lounge is a walkway for exiting guests. Suggest a dog area in restaurant
Absolutely love the property
The cleanliness of the room need to be a bit more stains and dust on valances and the tv was really thick with dust on the back , bed cover was ripped and the room are freezing if you don’t have a portable heater also the jacuzzi bath when I started to fill had scum coming out of the holes
The bed was very comfortable and the room well decorated. Food was okay.
There was no central heating when I stayed. My room was heated by electric oil-filled heaters, as was the bar area. My bathroom was freezing cold and could only be heated by keeping the door between the bathroom and the bedroom open. I could clearly hear conversation from the bar from my room; and in the morning was woken by the piped music from the bar/restaurant area.
Lovely original style hotek.Spacious rooms and comfy bed.Staff nice too
All ok
Friendly staff, good food menu
