Great service, lovely staff. Rooms are so outdated and a little creepy, but the bed was super comfortable for me! The bath was also great.

Attended with work for two day training. Great venue, easy to find, just off the M61 but feels rural. Good parking, no charge and if park at the back there's a back entrance to the hotel, which also leads to Reception.
Ideal function room, good size, well laid out, with a smaller room attached as break out for drinks/ food. That space was small - some had to sit back in the main room to eat as there wasn't enough room but not a problem. First day lunch was great, lots of choice for meat and non meat eaters - both days we had fantastic home made cakes/ cookies on arrival and at breaks. Day 2 lunch was poor though, completely different standard and as a veggie all I could have were two dry cheese sandwiches, so filled up on cookies.
Dropped a star because of that lunch.
I'd return here for the venue and home made cakes/cookies though 😂

This was not a good experience. Booked 2 rooms on a 2 night with dinner package. Arrived on first night to find only 1 room was showing and only one single room was available. This was after numerous emails and telephone calls to confirm booking and arrangements. I showed the receptionist (Ashley) my booking for 2 double rooms close together. One should be accessible room for my elderly parents. Manager called and was initially offered a rain damaged room that manager deemed fit. I stood my ground for an accessible room as booked. I was then offered one with manager authorisation. Rooms still on different floors and opposite parts of the hotel. Not what we had booked but nothing else was available. I accepted this grudgingly as it was now 10.00pm and we were all tired after a 3 hour drive. Both rooms were poorly maintained (missing selves, stained carpets, poor grouting) and had request towels as well!
Breakfast was a steady affair. All the usual suspects - cereals, fruit, crossiants, juices, help yourself coffee and a selection of hot fayre but no hash browns or potato dish?
Did not use pool or spa.
Dinner went from OK to bad to worse. Ordered food at bar to be told that they had run out of hummus at 8.00pm on a Wednesday night? Ordered starters and mains. They had also run out of Becks Blue and there was no other alternative. The coke draught machine as not working either. The starters came after a short wait. Nice soup and garlic bread. We waited for our mains and waited some more and dishes were not cleared either for 30 minutes. In the end I went to bar and told then our mains had not come. Barmen asked which had not come? I said all of them and he rang kitchen and told me that they would be 'fast-tracked'. I got the feeling they had forgotten about us. They arrived 10 minutes latter. Burger and chip was good. My pasta was warm on the outside and stone cold in the middle. I think it had been microwaved badly. The server noticed that I'd left my pasta and asked if everything was alright. I explained the pasta was cold. He offered to warm it and a free drink. I declined and ordered dessert - sticky pudding which was the best thing we had that night.
Check-out was quick but no real apologies offered for the booking/room issues we had encountered.
Would not recommend unless you are desperate or check booking in advance and get in writing.

We've stayed a couple of times and will be back. We stayed over Christmas and the staff were great, our room was ok, not a lot of room and the shower needs attention, a trickle of water. Room 441. Breakfast was ok, buffet style which is fine.

Wanted to stay the night in preparation for my wedding next year. Rooms nice and big. Breakfast was nice. Pool and facilities were excellent. Drinks a bit pricey but you expect that in any hotel. Reading some of the reviews think they must be used to staying at 5 star places, very nice for what the hotel is advertised as. Unfortunate alarm in the night but at least you know there is a process in place.

I have only ever visited the hotel to use the pool so can't comment on the rooms or hotel experience. I can say that there is ample parking to the rear of the hotel.
Moving inside you will find the gym and pool in the basement of the hotel accessible via a set of stairs or a very small lift.
The pool itself is quite large with a small hot tub to the side. Personally I find the water a nice temperature but people have mentioned that it is cold so just mentioning it in case you are swimming with a small child and you want to bring a wetsuit to keep them warm.
The poolside changing facilities are well equipped with lockers, toilets, showers and baby changing facilities in both male and female changing rooms.
I have had to knock a couple of stars off because the state of the room which houses the pool is a bit dire. The entire roof has blue netting suspended from it to catch what appears to be large chunks of rust or dirt. Not to mention the constant dripping of condensation.
