Nice hotel and spa. Uncomfortable bed.

Lovely hotel in pretty grounds. The spa facilities are great, although there doesn't seem to be option to book treatments. Hotel is nice enough. We were in the Small Double and it is small but not as bad as some hotels! Only real issue is the bed. Very uncomfortable and I slept really badly.

I stayed here for a night whilst dropping my daughter back to Uni. The hotel felt a bit like a leisure centre with rooms but I cannot fault the cleanliness of my room, the service provided or the facilities. I liked the women’s only gym. My double room was small but had everything I needed, was spotless and also very well priced. I don’t have breakfast at the hotel as I went to meet my daughter. However I thought the on site cafe looked really good. Free parking was also a welcome bonus. I would definitely stay here again.

The staff at the hotel deserve all the credit they are friendly and welcoming and go above and beyond to make your stay better! Only downside to this hotel is the road in and out as it’s fairly awkward if cars are coming the other way, otherwise would 100% stay again facilities and rooms are great

Great night sleep and excellent facilities

I book this venue a few months ago for as i was in Manchester for a wedding of a close freind. It was the perfect place with great facilities having acess to the pool gym and spa facilities was a extra bonus. The rool was spacious clean and the bed was comforatable. Breackfast was also of good quality. With plenty of options including cooked and continental. All the saff i delt with were excellent would definitely be returning on my next visit.

Simple but nice extra touches

Great location but be warned, the small rooms really are small. It’s not comfortable for two people. The pools are a great bonus too and a lovely breakfast spread.
