Had such a lovely day at the last drop. The staff made such an effort to ensure everyone made the most of the bank holiday weekend.
So much to do for the kids and a relaxing time in the sun for the grown ups. Special thank you to Nicola and Lucy.

Stayed one night. Really nice hotel, friendly staff at reception, room was fine.
Best thing was the Spa. There was a decent size swimming pool, 2 types of sauna, 3 types of steam room, a well equipped gym and .....an amazing outdoor heated jacuzzi with jets, waterfall and views of the countryside.
Dinner was served in a nice restaurant, my meal was fine however my wife had to send her main meal back as the vegetables were quite cold. Ordered a bottle of White wine and had to ask for an ice bucket , then was left to pour myself.
Breakfast was buffet and , although we came down around 8.30, it was clear that the food had been there quite a while.
Overall we did enjoy our stay, without the spa I would have given only 3 stars.

Top class service from the Last Drop throughout the whole of our wedding planning process. We decided to get married here last January 2018 and our wedding was 13th April 2018. From the moment we contacted the Last Drop to view the venue right through until the end of our wedding the service was great. The wedding team were always contactable and would pass emails onto another planner if they were unavailable. We had some confusion over room bookings etc throughout the process but all turned out okay on the day. They were more than accommodating for dietary needs - they provided us with gluten free meals (bride and groom plus 2 others) and these included everything the regular meals did and also accommodated the children and vegetarians and vegans. Everyone commented on how fabulous the food was - it was piping hot for all and the portions were huge. At the food tasting session we had to check these were the portion sizes that would be served as they were huge! We attended a few of their monthly wedding open evenings and all the staff were friendly and informative. We were given a conference suite to get ready in as there were 8 of us plus hair, make up and photographer and this was plenty big enough. We were able to check in early too on the Friday before the wedding as they understood we had 6 dresses to hang in the room. The rooms could do with a bit of updating but they were clean and fine for the amount of time we were in the them. The breakfast was good and the atmosphere in the hotel bar on the Friday evening was great. The hot buffet st the wedding went down a treat and everyone was commenting on how great the staff were. Nikki was overseeing our wedding that day and was then at breakfast the next day! Being able to use the spa was also great but not much to do after a couple of hours unless you book treatments in.

I stayed have here on business 4 times now and always found the place very clean and comfortable and the staff very friendly and helpful. They are the best thing about this hotel. They cannot do enough for you.

The Executive rooms are perfectly clean and comfortable with nice comfy beds and large flat screen tv’s. I will definitely be happy to stay again.

The food is adequate but nothing to write home about. I ordered an ‘artisan’ granary cheese and tomato chutney sandwich from the bar one lunchtime I was visiting... and the bread was dry and looked and tasted like the left over regular brown sliced bread that is used for breakfast toast.

But on the whole it is a lovely place to stay.

This visit, however, I was rather surprised by some of the clientele. Firstly, and this was not the first time this has happened, there were people in white towelling dressing gowns and hotel slippers having evening drinks and meals in the hotel bar. All a bit weird... I know it’s a spa hotel, and the restaurant full of such clad people at lunchtime having afternoon tea, who are obviously on some package, is one thing.

But you would have thought the management would insist that people are fully dressed in the bar of an evening when the bar is full of business people and other guests having dinner. Instead there were several people wearing nothing but nail polish and a robe and slippers sitting in the bar at 7pm.

Secondly, on this visit, I was greeted at Reception by being told “good luck; we have 160 teenagers from Ireland coming in tonight for 3 nights. Sorry”.

The teenagers arrived in two coach-loads as I had dinner in the bar. Within minutes of arrival, they were all over the hotel, in a highly overexcited state at the prospect, no doubt, of being away from home unleashed for the first time with minimal adult supervision... making a lot of noise and basically not observing the fact they were in a quiet, adult spa establishment.

The good news was they were having their meals in a separate building. Ideally, they would have been sleeping in separate buildings to the regular guests too- as the hotel’s bedrooms are located across several separate buildings.

However, I was told the issue was that they were all sharing rooms so needed twin rooms, and these twins were located randomly all over the hotel, not in one place. So the teenagers would be dotted around the hotel for the duration of their stay. Again “Sorry. There is nothing we can do”.

So each night, after 7:30pm when the teenagers finished dinner, they were running feral all over the hotel: shouting, screaming, door banging, running around. And this went on late until the evening. I could not watch tv in my room quietly in the evening due to the noise coming from the bedroom below mine where it sounded as if several had congregated for a party.

I understand that a booking of 80 rooms for 3 midweek nights must be lucrative - but how could a quiet country spa hotel accept such a booking at the risk of upsetting all its normal guests, without having a means to separate the younger guests from their usual clientele?

The poor staff did their best to stay on top of the noise - they even said at check-in “do let us know when you hear noise as we have to try to stay on top of it”. But, as I understand it, when they had a lot of noise complaints on the first night, they approached the teachers and were told “well, at the end of the day they are still just kids”. So the teachers basically abdicated all responsibility come the evenings.

These 160 younger guests should have been staying in a dedicated youth hostel or similar, not a countryside spa hotel.

Last night at 8pm the teenagers are running around on the grass outside my room making gutteral screams. They were having fun - which is what they should do at that age... but I was on business and needed a good night’s sleep in order to function the next day. If I had any idea the hotel had taken this booking, I would have stayed elsewhere. The younger guests were totally unsupervised at night and doing exactly what they wanted and disturbing all other guests. Disappointing.

As well as the normal guests, I felt very sorry for the poor staff who are doing their best.

I love The Last Drop but feel this was a bad call.

We had our wedding here on 7th April 2019 and it was AMAZING. From initial booking right through to the very day everything was handled with extreme care and attention, all staff we had the pleasure of meeting were fantastic and couldn't do enough for us. I feel a big shout out is necessary to Jacqueline who couldn't have helped us feel more comfortable when planning our wedding details and ensuring everything ran smoothly during the morning of our wedding. As soon as we found out the wedding make up artist wasn't coming, Jacqueline started to call round to find us one last minute she is a credit to you. Nicola took over for our ceremony and wedding breakfast and we couldn't have asked for more, anything we needed be it guests directing from one place to another and helping ensure all our food came out swiftly nothing was too much for Nicola. Ryan then came in to see of the night time reception and he was extremely helpful, anything we needed came to us promptly and he even arranged for our gifts and belongings to be taken to our room he couldn't do enough for us. Also a massive shout out to the staff working the whole day, all the waiting staff and bar staff did a fantastic job and credit to the folks in the kitchen as they put on a fantastic afternoon tea.

I have uploaded some photos from our wedding (I hope Nicola and Ryan don't mind) we told them to make use of the photo booth and they made it extra special :)

Thank you for hosting our special day you helped make it so amazing.

3rd time visiting this hotel and gets better everytime! Beautiful location, staff lovely rooms big and spacious, pool is also amazing. Would 100% recommend. Food in restaurant is slightly overpriced and bland. A quaint “village” behind the hotel with shops and also a pub.

Rooms are lovely, very clean and staff are nice. Outdoor heated pool had an amazing view. They offer a number of different walking routes available online. Food was lovely, pricey but worth it. Some rooms located outside so if the weather is bad you get wet heading the to the main part of hotel.

Stayed here last night. We had a wonderful time as always.
The Last Drop has a wonderful bit of magic about it.
Not been well for a couple of weeks with a chest infection came for some TLC.
Really happy with our stay again.
Room we had stayed in before and bathroom has been updated in the court yard.
Very pleasant surroundings and can see all the work that’s been done in reception.
Food amazing as always and service fantastic.
We have been here with family as well as friends and on our own and just love the place.
We have tried other places but always come back here we love it.
Have used the spa on previous visits but not this time as we had to get back home. Would recommend facilities here too. With pool and 5 saunas, and heated outside part too.
Wishing well and shops inclusive of a Tea room and bars.

I have stayed at this hotel for two weeks as I’m travelling for work, it’s by far the nicest hotel I have used for the 10 weeks I’ve worked in and around Manchester. The food is excellent and room service is very quick. The room is very clean and comfortable and perfect for a good nights sleep. There are supermarkets local and good walking routes. I have used the gym and leisure facilities three times and I can’t fault them at all. But to top the whole stay off is the staff, they are so friendly and helpful, I’ve never met such professional staff in a hotel before, the members that stood out the most were Alicia, Aaron, Aiden and Ryan- Ryan helped me pick the best bland of scotch whiskey the hotel had in stock deffo 5/5 for service.

Spent a night there with my husband and daughter in an executive family room, includes complimentary drinks and chocolate. Big room for extra bed, newly modernised room. Spa facilities very good and we spent about an hour in there. Shame about the new housing estate that is being built as it ruins the views. Great friendly service at reception and the Irish manager very welcoming and helpful. Bar service a bit slow. Very very busy hotel, lots of weddings and functions going on. Breakfast very busy, service poor, food not great.
The village area is very odd, quaint, not really sure how to describe it. If in the area, I would certainly stay there again

I spent two nights here for my aunties wedding recently, we were staying in a courtyard room which isn’t in the main building but is closer than some rooms to the main reception.
The room was ideal for two people, it was nice and clean, the rooms was up to date. When we requested for extra towels at reception they were at my room in less than 10 minutes.
The breakfast had wide range of options to choose from both hot and cold, accompanied from a wide variety of juices. There was continental breakfast and an English breakfast which you serve yourself, also they potato cakes which is considered local food to the area which is interesting to try. We also ate at the hotel in the evening and the food although pricey (hotel prices) was extremely enjoyable.
The bar staff on the wedding day and the day before seemed to be new to their role and left on the bar by themselves which meant the service was often very slow, also the prices of the drinks in comparison to other hotels which I been a guest at are considerably higher and the price of a pint was over £5.
I also used the leisure facilities, the outdoor infinity pool was lovely; the temperature of pool was really enjoyable and relaxing. The swimming pool was great too! However I do think the Steam rooms and sauna could do with a little update to fit in with the rest of the facilities.
Overall I think the Last drop village is an excellent place to stay, providing some lovely scenes during your stay. The friendliness and willingness to help from the staff was lovely. Although I raised a few points here I would absolutely stay here again.

Have visited a couple of time, once for a Sunday night deal and this time for the Friday night fizz deal. Love this spa hotel because it is very laid back and relaxed. The offers are fantastic as they include a 3 course meal which is excellent. The Friday night deal also had a bottle of prosecco and a drinks voucher so a real bargain at £150. We visit quite a few spa hotels and I think the facilities at Last Drop are excellent. Spa is spotless, good size pool and smaller jacuzzi type pool which is lovely. Bit disappointed with the 'village' part as it looks a bit tired, but to be honest the positives far outweigh the negatives. Rooms are spacious and clean. Its become our go to spa when we need a quick uplift.

We renewed our wedding vows here this weekend. From first booking the event in November last year right up to the vow renewal ceremony itself, the staff have beeen amazing!!! Jacqueline, one of the Wedding Coordinators, has not only helped us and guided us with meal choices, buffet items, but pointed us in the right direction for decorations, flowers, photographers, DJs, etc., making sure we didn’t miss a thing. On the day itself, Jacqueline came to the room I was getting ready in with our daughter (our bridesmaid) and kept me calm after receiving a terrible phone call about a friend, helped me with my dress walking down to the Penny Farthing Suite where we were getting married, and I think got a little emotional through the ceremony too! The entire staff at the Last Drop were amazing - the staff in the restaurant when myself and my daughter were having a meal the night before, the lady in the restaurant at breakfast who we had a lovely chat with, the gentleman who we have seen plenty of times in the restaurant on our previous visits to the hotel who’s name unfortunately I can’t remember (sorry) who congratulated me in the corridor... and I’d also like to say a massive thank you to Nicola, who looked after us massively at the wedding breakfast and reception. She made sure everything ran like clockwork and treated us like part of the Last Drop family.
Thank you again for making it the best day ever!!!

Well, what an amazing party we all had! We had organised a party for my parents 65th Wedding Anniversary as we knew the hotel. My husband and I have stayed at the hotel many times before and we are both spa members there too. The service we received from the events team, particularly Jacqueline, was fantastic. We were given lots of choices and updated regularly on plans. We were then given a larger room for the party which was brilliant and looked amazing when it was all set up. We opted for a hot & cold buffet and were given a good selection to choose from. Everyone commented how good the food was. There were 40 members of the family attending the party and we all stayed at the hotel the night of the party. Everyone was happy with their accommodation and the breakfast was lovely too. Just want to say a msssive Thank you to all the staff who looked after us, particularly Jacqueline & Nicola. You made my parents extremely happy and the whole family had a fantastic time!

My husband and I used a gift voucher for a Fizz Friday, and had a truly wonderful break. It was an amazing gift, and the hotel lived up to its reputation. There was a birthday card, chocolate dipped strawberries and prosecco waiting for us. The room was very well appointed, very clean. The hotel is in a lovely position, the weather smiled upon us, and the spa not too busy. We took advantage of a "Three Decades" night - the DJ was very good - and danced the night away.

All of the food was good, as expected drinks were slightly more expensive than average. On the whole I can say it was a lovely birthday.

Went yesterday for a spa package bought from Woucher.
We arrived late as the traffic was busy on the motorway. We’d already missed the time for our first treatment.
The staff in the spa where wonderful. They sorted it that we could still have both treatments and still have them in the room together at the same time. They didn’t need to do this but did. We couldn’t thank them enough.
The back massage and facial we both received was heavenly. Certainly made our day.
Then into the pool area and thermal pool. OMG it’s lovely. Hot water very relaxing and with swim out pool and views are great. Shame houses with spoil the view that are being built there.

The only downside of the day was we didn’t book lunch. Had to go into the hotels bar and that wasn’t serving food as they was charging tills over to new system. So we had to go into the tea room. We’d had to get dressed for this so didn’t go back into the spa. Shame really as we only spent a few hours in it.

We will return tho as this is our second visit to here.

Large family room
Generally the hotel was nice unable to get into the restaurant as it was full so went to the retreat down the road which was excellent well
The cleanliness of the room found a hair on the bathroom floor and the shelves in the bathroom I don’t think has ever been cleaned
The bar took a long time to be served
The view from the jacuzzi is a car park and a building site not sure want this is trying to achieve?

We have just come back from the Last Drop hotel and Spa, what a lovely place, all the staff are so friendly, the Manager Gerry makes time to chat with you, we couldn’t get a reservation at the onsite restaurant and after speaking with Gerry he somehow managed to fit us in!! The Sap is fantastic, the heated infinity pool is amazing it overlooks the countryside, I had a massage whilst there so relaxing!! Breakfast was all you could eat and more! We will be back!
