Room, evening meal and breakfast
Noisy neighbour
The room was nice and clean. Nice surroundings, lovely well kept flower baskets. My husband got an English breakfast and this was nice. Staff was very pleasant and helpful.
In the bedroom, the mattress was hard for me and I didn't have a comfortable sleep. For breakfast, I had an Egg Royale, the "smoked salmon" was not smoked enough and the taste was not nice.
Excellent helpful staff, clean comfy room, delicious Sunday dinner and lovely breakfast. A great location for golfers 🏌️♂️
Could provide shower and hair wash, the bath/ shower was slippery therefore a bath mat could be provided.
Everything was superb. Staff very friendly throughout the hotel and pub. Food was delicious and the room was really comfortable
Nothing at all
Freshly decorated with contemporary and high quality furnishings. Courtyard setting away from the bar area meant we had a quiet night, even on a bank holiday weekend.
Lacking attention to detail and cleanliness could have been slightly better, i.e., between bed and bedside cabinet had cobwebs, lampshades had cobwebs, etc. No fruit nor any dairy free spread available at breakfast.
The rooms around the courtyard were a nice layout. The rooms were fresh and clean and the bed was comfortable
Check in is a bit late at 3pm and reception was not open when we arrived. A note was left to ring for service. No fridge in the room
Good location to where we needed Rooms were clean and good size
Breakfast was poor. Waited an hour for an English breakfast Overpriced for amenities
The food and the room
Little bottle of shampoo
Space Clean

The room was nice , lovely location. The restaurant is really nice, food was superb and so was the breakfast. All the staff members were wonderful and very friendly.
The room was really hot, the fan provided was very noisy. In this day and age you can’t really leave your windows open. In the bathroom there is no shower gel just a little bar of soap, so we didn’t use the shower.
Everywhere was really clean and the staff were so welcoming.
Nothing
Lovely room but a bit sparse furniture wise. A chair or something to put suitcase on would be handy. Would love a mini fridge in room too.
Sparse furniture...looks unfinished.
From getting there the staff was amazing from start to finish .great selection of drinks and the food was amazing
Coming home wish we could stay longer
Room was lovely and nicely decorated. I was big enough to have a larger bed than the double but it was still very comfy. A fan was also supplied. Shiny clean bathroom with a great shower
Maybe a bigger bed
Everything
Excellent value for money lovely clean rooms
Nothing it was spot on

Ver Nice
Couldn't get food Sunday evening
Staff and accommodation were amazing
Lovely breakfast - great options and the staff were so lovely!
Hot room!
Lovely breakfast, very clean, small hotel and so gave more personal experience.
The walls are very thin and the person next door got up in the early hours. Housekeeping began at about 6am and the banging of both and running of taps etc interrupted sleep.
The staff and location were nice. The staff were friendly and helpful and outside it was nice to sit and have a drink and the meal we had in the restaurant was lovely also.
Our window had an amazing view of the country and it was a lovely and sunny day so we wanted to relax with our window open. Almost instantly though we started to notice kids playing right outside it and people walking past even though it seems to be at the back. As a result we felt our room wasn't private enough and closed the blind meaning we could have been anywhere. Considering our night away was to be away from kids, it kind of ruined it for us and why we wouldn't return.
Lovely room, beautiful location, nice decor, v clean. Nice, attentive staff.
I found the bedding a bit cheap; a limp duvet in what felt like polyester. Not hotel quality linen. It really let down what was a stunning room. Breakfast was also a bit disappointing. Inedible salty scrambled eggs on soggy white toast.
Quality property. Lovely friendly staff and food great.
Nothing
Lovely room. Brilliant helpful staff and wonderful food, especially the superb breakfast choices.
Nothing. All was great.
Breakfast was satisfactory but we had to ask for orange juice, fruit, toast and marmalade. Feel this should be on the menu choices Evening meal very good Room very clean and comfortable. We stayed two nights. Thought perhaps our complimentary tea and biscuits could have been replenished for the second night along with clean tea cups - minor issue. Overall a very pleasant stay.
As above
Absolutely beautifully clean room, stunning Sunday Lunch all topped off by Jane being so accomodating, our secound vist and definately not our last.
Leaving.
The food was excellent.the staff were very friendly.
Tolle Mitarbeiter, sehr freundlich. Sehr Gutes Essen im Pub und das Frühstück könnte man sich aussuchen, sehr gut.
Alles o.k.
It was clean and the staff were very friendly. The buildings were very pleasant.
It was lacking the toiletries that should have been expected at the price charged per night. It needed a chair in the room. The breakfast was extremely disappointing: weak orange juice, coffee brought in a cup, rather than a pot, cereals were an option instead of a cooked breakfast and not provided as standard.
Staff were friendly and professional. Excellent food and well managed
Nothing.
Limpeza, tamanho do quarto, cama, travesseiros e produtos de ótima qualidade ( roupa de cama e banho )
Apesar do café da manhã ter sido de muito boa qualidade foi difícil entender o que estava a disposição para se pedir.
Up to date decor Friendly cleaner Facilities
Breakfast had no extras offered, e.g. toast, orange juice etc Long wait in restaurant for our order Local footpaths were very overgrown
Beautiful food, great service, nice rooms
The rooms were lovely. Very well presented, clean and with a very nice view of the countryside from our bedroom window. The staff were very friendly and happy to help with any requests. We would definetly stay here again.
There was nothing not to like, we really enjoyed our stay.
Everything 👌
The welcome was nice . Room very well presented and spotless. Tea coffee etc . Bed very comfortable good nights sleep. Unfortunately up at 5am for early start No hot water so nasty cold shower not good. The food was average beer was lice a local ipa. Again staff were great plenty of parking very well presented and.
Wonderful stay in a very lovely, comfy place, like a cocoon! The room was very comfortable and welcoming, carefully prepared with great touches like biscuits and chocolate! The adjacent restaurant is equally great, the staff were very attentive and knowledgeable. The meals were absolutely scrumptious, to die for! And with special rates for families during the school break! Breakfast didn't disappoint either, with some ingredients locally sourced! Highly recommended
It was clean, comfortable, good value and the staff were very friendly.
There were no bathroom toiletries.
Dinner was really good. Breakfast was good but a bit of a wait.
The view. Service at breakfast was too late could have been earlier, and very slow service. Room could have do with a coat hook.
Mindre æg mere juice
Mere forskelligt morgenmad (juice pandekager evt)
Another great stay at the Cock O’Barton hotel. Unfortunately it was only for one night. Supper and breakfast were delicious. All staff members were very friendly and attentive. We look forward to returning very soon.

Location was great, staff were friendly and helpful, the rooms and outside area, bar everything are beautiful and well presented
Nothing! I had a brilliant stay
Very comfortable stay as usual
Unfortunately this time the breakfast was not up to its usual standard. My husband had the full English whichwas lovely and i opted for the scrambled eggs and bacon,, but the eggs were more like an omelette as if it had been sitting under a warm lamp,, shame
Excellent hotel, clean, spacious rooms. Lovely friendly staff.
Everything was perfect
Great, thank you, will definitely stay again.

Nothing, all good
Fantastic! Really Lovely welcome and very friendly staff. We were there for Bed and Breakfast and ate in the restaurant in the evening. Bedroom was lovely and spacious. Plenty of parking and a nice bar area and outside seating for the better weather. Food was great and generous portions along with being good value. Will definitely go again!
The room was very comfortable, plenty of room to store our unpacked clothes. It was quiet! The coffee (sourced locally), tea and hot chocolate was a great addition. The breakfast , included with the room, was outstanding. The food in the pub was delicious. Lastly, the staff were helpful and very friendly .
This place is amazing! Staff are so welcoming and happy, food was incredible.
Great layout , bedrooms a little basic but very clean and tidy , great staff, good variety of good food overall great value.

Room was lovely and cosy and vlean
unfortunately breakfast was a bit more disappointing the full english felt like it was just picked off a buffet tray
It was perfect. From the moment we walked through the door we were warmly welcomed. The property itself was stylish, beautifully furnished and comfortable. The food is exceptional with everything locally sourced and delicious.
Nothing
Really lovely rooms with a very comfortable bed, fantastic big bath, and all the amenities you would expect from such a nice establishment. I loved the decor, rustic country cottage style with some modern touches, really tastefully done. Alongside their wonderful restaurant and bar, you're very much on to a winner if you choose to stay here. I suspect their events are just as good if the rest is anything to go by. It's also really really reasonably priced, and would be a perfect base for exploring wider Cheshire, as well as nearby Wrexham, and would be a great choice to visit Chester from as well, but avoid the exorbitant prices there. I personally just stayed for one night on a business trip, but will definitely return at the next opportunity, hopefully for leisure this time. To be quite honest, they really have no business being this well priced based on the overall quality of everything here, but I'm glad they do make it affordable, as it's accessible luxury and indulgence that can be enjoyed by the many.
Bellissima struttura dall’aspetto tradizionale ma anche con dettagli moderni, molto curata. Staff gentilissimo, ristorante buono per la cena come anche per la colazione. Camera spaziosa e pulita.
Welcoming venue.
Rooms were great

There was nothing we didn't like
Everything, staff, food, service and breakfast
Nothing, only half hour from home but feels special for a night away
the staff and food were excellent
not a lot.
Rooms are ground level, lovely food and great service.
Excellent breakfast, friendly staff. Nice welcoming place & it was very clean.
Pillows could be better.
Breakfast was excellent. We were upgraded to the honeymoon suite which was a nice touch. Very clean. Bed was comfortable albeit a bit high which was easily rectified by provision of a small stool.
Apart from a high bed, nothing really.
We stayed for 3 nights and will unquestionably be returning. All staff were so attentive, professional and friendly. After a long streesful for few days culminating in our house move finalising earlier in the day, we ate in the restaurant that eveniong. The food and atmosphere was so good we changed our plans and instead, also ate in the restaurant the following day and this time, we had the guests with us who we were supposed to be meeting elesewhere!!
