We enjoyed our stay at Dunkenhalgh hotel, with a few little criticisms for check ins and check out. When we checked in we were not prompted to check-in our car registration and not asked for a card to cover bar bills. These problems were solved by us coming down to reception. Our room was lovely in the executive wing, the room was very airy and plenty of storage space for clothes. All our meals in the restaurant were very good, tasty and well presented. All the staff were very busy but we never felt like we were overlooked. Chloe in the restaurant was very good and looked after us both evening meals. We had a run out mid stay, going to Morecombe bay, (tide was out) so miles of beach to see. Then we stopped at Carnforth station. This was wonderful as the film "brief encounter" was filmed there, so the refreshment room and the heritage exhibition were great to wander around.
Check-out was a little confusing as Chilti was on her own at a very busy time and was not sure about the bill on leaving but everything was sorted out by the time we got home.

Second time staying here last night. Spotless room sauna, pool and steam rooms amazing and gorgeous food
Breakfast was the highlight of my stay plenty of choice from pastries, fruit, cereal, full English and lots of cheese, ham etc. great coffee machine too.

Stayed at Dunkenhalgh hotel & spa when celebrating our wedding anniversary. Excellent service by all staff we met, including check in/out, we dined in Cameo restaurant for dinner & breakfast & I also received a lovely relaxing spa treatment. Special mention to Anne & Kieran who were welcoming & helpful. Easy to get to as near to M65. Room spotless & bed very comfortable . Tea/coffee available in room & much appreciated. Good value & we look forward to visiting again. Would recommend this hotel .

I went here with my sister and stayed overnight. We had a lovely twin bedded room. The beds were very comfortable. The evening meal was really nice (the only thing that spoilt it was the music being played- not conducive to having a nice relaxing evening meal) The breakfast could not be faulted it was excellent. Service good in all quarters from reception to leaving.

Staff were lovely and attentive, they ensured we knew where to go for the Spa, sat us down to have afternoon tea.
They included sandwiches, dainty cakes and scones.
Offered us fruit juices and a coffee each.
Then gave us a fluffy robe, slippers and towels
The pool and lounger area was clean and tidy.
Separate steam and sauna area was so pretty.
The only disappointment was the pool was quite cold and the jacuzzi is open in the pool so it was as cold, we couldn't relax in there and got out quite quickly.
Other women there commented the same and then they didn't return to the pool or jacuzzi. It's ok if you prefer to do laps up and down though my

We stayed for one night in the Courtyard rooms. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming, from checking in at reception through to dinner. The drinks were reasonably priced with a decent wine menu. We had purchased a dinner voucher so received £60 credit towards our meal. We had a steak and the lancashire hotpot, with a diet coke and a small glass of red wine - it cost us around £20 additionally but the food was beautiful and well worth it. Breakfast the next morning was well cooked and fresh, so no complaints there either. Staff were friendly and on the ball on both occasions. The room was clean but slightly dated, it would have benefitted from a fresh lick of paint and some minor cosmetic updating i.e ceiling was peeling, some tiles were cracked. The bathroom was small but functional. The hairdryer needed replacing as it sounded like it was about to blow up when in use! Our main issue was the temperature; the room was extremely hot, despite all the radiators being off and the windows open. We did phone through to reception to query this as we couldn’t find a thermostat anywhere, the desk lady kindly offered us a different room but it was already quite late by this point so we declined and made do with open windows for the night. Overall, we would probably stay again if in the area.

Very tired looking in places, needs a good deep clean.
Service at bars, awful. Had to wait 45 mins to get served in bar. Finished our first drink by the time food arrived.
Evening was even worse, got told to be seated by 6.30 to eat at 7. Still waiting at 7.45pm. Vegan option bland and lack of vegetables. Would not recommend.

Stayed for one night to break journey to Scotland. Stables room spacious and clean but a little cold as only a small electric heater which was not on when we arrived and took a long time to heat room. Spa was good with a very good pool and choice of steam rooms and sauna. Non hotel guests can be members of the Spa so it may be busy on occasions, but fine when we were there. One issue was the male and female changing rooms had been swapped over for maintenance reasons which could be confusing and a man walked into the female changing rooms. This needs to be addressed with clearer signage. All staff friendly and helpful. Food in restaurant was very good for evening meal and our waitress Chloe looked after us very well. Breakfast was normal hotel buffet style but nice with a good choice. Overall very good value and would definitely stay here again.
