The staff members were so amazingly helpful and friendly. As a solo traveler with a cane I struggle with stairs and excessive walking but the staff helped me to my room when I arrived and Katen even helped we all the way to the train platform across the way when I left. While this location is remote the charm and guality mke it a beautiful destination stay and the food was to die for. I had one minor issue in my room and they resolved it while I was out so 5/5

Short staffed and even though we were acknowledged as soon as we arrived we had to wait for 5mins before anyone came to check us in. They had walked past us to say they would be a minute but instead went to serve several people at the bar.

Nice pub with great food

The hotel was good overall and the food/drink and service was amazing. However, the bed in our room was really hard so we didn't get a good night's sleep on either of our two nights there. The windows in the room also didn't appear to open so we couldn't get any fresh air in. This would be more of a problem if it was really warm outside. Finally, the photos of the bathroom are a little deceiving as we didn't get a walk in shower. Instead we had a shower over the bath (it was still a good, warm, powerful shower though). The EV charger on site was a great bonus and worked flawlessly.

The staff were friendly and the breakfast was good. We were in room 2 which was noisy because of nearby mechanical noises (we were told it was the cellar). There was no soap provided so we had to use shower gel. Recently decorated walls, unfortunately spoiled by damp / mould on a part of outside wall. Bathroom extractor fan not working.

Great location, friendly helpful staff, good service. The shower screen was short of the side of the bath so flooded the bathroom and soaked my towel. This definitely needs attention.

Happy to recommend.

Good hotel, ideally located for a weekend with local family near Knutsford. Hotel exterior well presented Big car park /free parking. I had a large and well presented room (Room 1) which was quiet with rural views (beyond the bins !). It and the bathroom were spotlessly clean. Good quality linen and toiletries. Suggestions: - Better bedside lighting - A luggage stand and a waste paper basket in the bedroom would be helpful - Stronger and more focused lighting above the bathroom basin. - Resiting glass shelf above basin which currently loses a hazard. Excellent breakfast with good choice of options. Eggs Royal excellent. Staff friendly, helpful and professional. The hotel worked well for me and I would be happy to return.

Check in and first night hospitality was excellent. Welcoming,quiet and cozy atmosphere by the wood fire. Easy conversation with other guests with great tips on local points of interest. We slept well all 3 nights. Some concerns, breakfast is 7-9 prepaid the day before, so we opted in the first morning which we didn't do again as, there was one server for the whole dining room. At 8am, there was little left of the continental offerings and my Benedict was stone cold from the kitchen.
