We had a problem with tree shoots that had filled all our gutters on the main house and conservatory. The house is quite high and we thought we may have to get scaffolding for the work to take place however Gary and his team came, scaled the house like spider man and cleared the problem for us. I would definitely recommend Excel Drainage, 5 star service and really nice guys.

Massive thanks to Graham from Get Driving Today. When our son Kairo turned 17 in early July, Graham was our No1 choice of Driving Instructor. Two months later we have a new driver in the family with Kai not only passing his theory test the first time, but also his driving test the first time too. Get Driving today has lots of resources for learners on a bespoke App which also shows the learners progress along the way. Kairo found the lessons enjoyable saying that Graham's teaching style and knowledge quickly put him at ease and gave him the confidence to go for a test just 12 weeks after his first lesson. Thank you so much Graham, you truly are Bury's Best Driving Instructor.

Big thanks to Dean from Lamberton Wrought Iron. We have a wrought iron bed that had been stored in the cellar for almost 20 years, he has brought it back to life for us, from rusty to brand new in just a few days. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much to Rob at ParcelFast. His supermarket collection service has been enormously helpful for us over the past month. Not worrying about having to go out to collect groceries has meant we have one less thing to think about and can focus on our business. He's collected luxury items such as fresh and frozen foods as well as essentials such as Gin, Prosecco and Dog treats. He's an absolute pleasure to deal with and always delivers on time. We enjoy our little doorstep chats (at a safe distance of course) as Rob unloads the van and pops the shopping bags on the doorstep. A fabulous local business who has adapted the way he works to ensure the local community can continue to access supermarkets during Covid-19. Highly Recommended.

Ian performed his magic at the Made in Bury Business Awards 2019 and was absolutely amazing as always. I cannot recommend Ian enough, he really does make you believe in Magic! Excellent!

I cannot thank Matthew from DTE IT Support enough for his speedy response to the IT issues I experienced earlier this week. I am working to a very tight deadline and it was reassuring to know that not only can DTE offer the support i need but have an incredibly good response time. Highly Recommended. Thanks You.

Attended the BusinessLodge summer BBQ at the Village last Friday night, what a superb night. We had the ultimate BBQ and as the weather was lovely we had the pleasure of the outside terrace. Great night, lovely room decor and fantastic friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Thank you to Dale Jones from Ramsbottom Roofing, another job well done at one of our rental properties! Highly Recommended.

The village hotel truly is a great venue to host an event. Thanks to Mike and his team for an excellent Big Bury Expo last month. Very well organised and a friendly team! Highly recommended.

Simply the best nursery in Town, I would not send my children anywhere else.

Amazing room and even more amazing breakfast. I stayed at the Village on the night of the Mibba's and have to say it was brilliant to be able to simply party until i needed to drop and then after a short but refreshing sleep a very good breakfast to soak up the alcohol. Highly Recommended.

I would like to thank Bury Financial Advisers Ltd for all their expert advice, it's great to know we have a professional financial adviser such as Paul Brown looking after our finances and growing our investments. Friendly and expert service, thank you.

A massive thank you to Doug Peak and his team at Walmersley Golf Club for hosting our Summer BBQ last night. The food was amazing! Such a beautiful setting for a BBQ and with last nights glorious weather a fabulous evening was had by all. Thank you so much.

We recently used Bury Mini Bus Hire to take some business associates to the Chamber dinner and they were superb. The mini bus was exceptionally clean which was great as we were all dressed in our finery. The bus was on time and Paul our driver very professional. The bus was waiting for us outside the main entrance as arranged for our return trip. Overall a very professional service! Highly Recommended.

People Matters handle our HR here at thebestofbury. Niel provides a professional and efficient service.

The perfect place for a workout or simply a swim in the pool. Great facilities and love the bar menu.

I will happily recommend GDT, they have an excellent pass rate! In fact the last person I referred to Graham passed first time. What a nice man too! Excellent business!

Claire my cleaner from Brightway Cleaning is a total star! I cant recommend her highly enough, she even came in between Christmas and the New Year. 5 Star service.

Massive thanks go to Samantha Gibbs and her team at the Village Hotel for hosting last nights thebestofbury Christmas Party. We had a blast! A fantastic night was had by all, what a great start to the Christmas Holidays! Thanks again xxx

Ian and his colleague amazed the guests at the Made In Bury Business Awards last month, I never tire of seeing Ian's tricks. A magician is the perfect entertainer for a business dinner. Thanks Ian, consider yourself booked for next year! x

What can I say about Brightway? Simply Excellent. I have had the same cleaner, Claire now for several years, she knows exactly how I like the house cleaning. I have strict standards and she never lets her standards drop, she leaves the house looking and smelling fresh every visit. My dogs also look forward to her visits, she makes such a fuss of them. Claire has also been known to come in to do my clean on her holidays. Great Service!

I finally got the GET UP AND GO to use my Gym membership last week and went to Cilla's Pilates class on Wednesday evening. I really enjoyed it, I'd not done exercise for ages and the class was a real mix of all levels so I didn't feel out of place at all. Booking for this week too! Highly recommend this fun and vibrant class.

I have moved my final salary and several other old work pensions to Bury Financial Advisers and I am delighted with the results. Paul and his team have shown considerable growth and I have confidence that my pensions are finally in a safe pair of hands.

I am probably the fussiest person in Bury, all my x cleaners would agree. From the laminated list I give them on the first day I know what I like and how I like it to be done and until Claire from Brightway Cleaning, I was never satisfied with a cleaner. Claire is fantastic, she knows exactly the standard I like, she's bubbly and happy in her work but really pushes herself, she treats her job like a gym workout!! She makes my daughters bed and arranged her teddies in such a nice way, my daughter is always delighted. Don't ever stop cleaning Claire!

Niel from People Matters handles all my HR, from my staff manuals to general advice, I find his service invaluable and highly recommend to any business not quite big enough to have their own in house HR manager.

The Village Hotel is a superb business venue, from simply meeting a client for coffee in Starbucks or the comfy lounge, over lunch in the Victory Pub or even utilising one of the meeting rooms. Excellent facilities and the most helpful staff ever,

The feedback from my guests at the Made in Bury Business Awards 2013 luncheon has been amazing for Ian Lavin and his team, what brilliant magicians they are! Ian always amazes me however the cheers and clapping coming from the tables meant just one thing.A magician! I would recommend using Ian's services for any such corporate event.and not to forget BIG THANKS for attending Phil's BIG Birthday Party and dazzling our guests there too. Thank you so much Ian and you are booked for next year!

Many thanks once again to the Village Bury for the time and effort put in to ensure our Big Bury Business Expo was a huge success. Gill and Sam cant do enough for us, the events almost run themselves now, the staff know exactly where to place the stands, the stage etc.It's almost done for us by the time we arrive to set up! Brilliant venue for our expo, looking forward to our next one in April 2014.

I have used People Matters for quite some time now, it's comforting to have the expert advice at the other end of the phone when you need it.
