Cracking place to stay

I was only there for 1x night, with my dog (Reggie). Made to feel so welcome, options for dinner etc. Also a lovely welcome pack for Reg ❤️ Lovely warm clean room, a real shame I didn’t get a chance to eat as the restaurant and menu looked good.

A lovely hideaway

Welcoming staff at all stages of the stay. Breakfast was excellent. Darwen Tower is very close and a lovely walk for a young family with fantastic views of the area.

Good value stay with great staff

We were very positively surprised by the hotel which we thought was good value for the price. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was large, clean and tidy and had tea and coffee making facilities. We were given a front door key to allow us to return after hours which was very helpful. I would like to go back and explore the gin distillery.

Great breakfast

Parked up in the large car park before checking in. Nice room on the ground floor which was spacious. Quality TV, tea and coffee facilities. Decent bathroom with bath / shower combined. Only cons were toilet was difficult to flush and there is no fridge or safe. Breakfast was included and is fantastic.

Well situated and great accommodation. Comfy beds and hotel was very warm. Sadly our booking with Expedia had not notified the hotel we were 3 guests. So when our room was changed, the lighting unit around our bed was not working so other than a dim light by mirror the room had no lighting. Night 1 we were given 1 beside lamp and Night 2 were given a standard floor lamp. The room was obviously still very dim. Staff we apologetic and friendly but not ideal.

Gin and tonic

The hotel is an attractive looking building and communal space was lovely. The staff were very helpful and I had a lovely meal and the gin was lovely. However the drawback was the room which did not match the rest of the facility. It had black curtains and reminded me of a dungeon. Despite this the room was very clean.

The property was set back from the road with its own drive. Plenty of parking spaces. Ideal location for weddings or events. The staff very helpfull and friendly. We were impressed by them. Our double bedroom was a nice size and clean but needed refreshing. Breakfast was very good. As a wedding was being held there it was quiet noisy in the evening but had gone quiet by midnight. We had an issue with the cold water tap on last night of our stay as no water coming out.
