We’ve just come back from a lovely weekend at the Mercure Dunkenhalgh Hotel & Spa in Blackburn.
The setting was beautiful, the food was lovely, and every member of staff we met was friendly and helpful.
When we arrived, Sam checked us in. He very kindly upgraded us to a suite and was incredibly helpful, booking us a table for dinner and explaining everything we needed to know about breakfast and the spa facilities.
That evening we enjoyed a wonderful dinner. Our waitress, Mia I, was absolutely brilliant — genuinely the best waitress we’ve ever had. She was so friendly and chatty, taking an interest in where we’d travelled from and what we were celebrating. We bumped into her again later that evening in the hotel, and she remembered us and stopped for another lovely chat. She was absolutely wonderful.
There was also a lady called Carla working during both the dinner and breakfast services, quietly making sure everyone had everything they needed. She was fantastic too and clearly worked incredibly hard.
After dinner, we took a walk around some of the older parts of the hotel and met the Head Chef, Shaun. He very kindly took some photographs of me and my husband on the staircase and shared some of the hotel’s history with us. We also chatted about a restaurant in our hometown where he knew the head chef. He was so kind and accommodating, and we really appreciated the time he took to speak with us.
All in all, everyone we met was wonderful and played a part in making our stay so enjoyable. We would definitely come back and would definitely recommend the hotel to others.

In September 2026, Theo Jennings said about The Personal Agent - Estate Agents
I have dealt with the Epsom branch throughout my tenancy and have been very impressed with the level of service I received.
In particular, Stephanie Foley has been exceptional. Whenever we had any questions or queries, she was always extremely helpful, responsive, and professional. She consistently dealt with everything promptly and efficiently, making the whole process much easier.

In September 2026, maddie said about Lichfield Garrick Theatre & Studio
Go at least once a year and the theatre is incredible! Accessible for those with wheelchairs or limited access if mentioned while booking, great front of house team who are enthusiastic and helpful. Prices can be expensive for a local production, but the shows always deliver and are a lovely family tradition. Would also take time to see youth performances with great upcoming talent. Decent size for big crowds, and does seat quite a few people compared to other local theatres

In September 2026, michael m said about The Last Drop Village Hotel & Spa
The hotel a short distance out of Bolton, is well set out with gym , spa and sauna amenities and near some attractive walks nearby.
Staff were efficient though meal service could be a bit slow
Our rooms were generally clean and tidy, but had a had cramped toilet and mould and cracking in places in the bathroom.
Think they could do better than Nescafe for the room coffee though!
Noise outside the room was audible on a number of occasions.
Bar pizzas were excellent and most of meals that we had in the restaurant were good with the exception of breakfast. We advise you eat early as it can quickly become crowded.
Continental breakfasts were buffet The Full English Breakfast(table service), was repeatedly lukewarm to cold, particularly the fried eggs.
if you used all the facilities , I think the overall price would work out about average for the area.
Overall - we found this hotel passable but not excellent.

In September 2026, Zakaria Jeewa said about Fountain Solicitors
Professional and supportive
I recently had the privilege of working with Ayeisha Khandia, whose legal counsel was nothing short of exemplary. She demonstrated unwavering professionalism at all times, ensuring I was fully equipped with the necessary details to make a measured and confident decision. Her ability to address and alleviate my concerns with prompt, out-of-hours communication was truly remarkable. A stellar solicitor whom I endorse without hesitation.

Ayeisha Khandia
Ayeisha was so professional, approachable and just all around amazing. I could not recommend Ayeisha enough what she helped us achieve is something I hope she is proud of every single day and will never be forgotten. Thank you so much you made a difficult time go smoothly as it could and we will always be thankful.
