Wow, what a gem! We had a fabulous experience from start to finish. The service was outstanding, and the atmosphere so warm and friendly. The room was fantastic, and the bed—haven't slept that well in ages! The food was simply to die for, in the best way possible. We originally planned to stop over on our way to the Lakes, but after this visit, we'll definitely be back. Highly recommend! ♥️

Staff are exceptional
Food was excellent, staff were exceptional. Accommodation adequate, nothing that set it apart from any other but with everything you need. We had a dog and please that it was accommodated. A surcharge was applied.

Very close to Alton Towers and in a nice surrounding. Free parking and very friendly staff. However, the one of the two bedrooms had a strong damp smell, the toilet was cramped. No air freshner was available either.

Perfect for Themeparking
We came here as I’m sure many do as a base for our Alton Towers adventures. The accommodation is basic but perfectly suited for this. After all we just needed a comfortable place for our family of four (inc. teenagers) to rest, wash and eat breakfast. Service was friendly and efficient. Breakfast was yum and everything was reasonably priced. Thank you!

Excellent Location for Alton Tower
We stayed there for our Alton Tower trip. The room we stayed was like a motel style which was great for loading/unloading bags. The facility was old but house keeping was very good and members of staffs were very friendly and helpful. 10-15min by car from Alton Tower was great. If we go back to Alton Tower, we will stay here again.

Great hidden family run gem
We chose the hotel fairly randomly as we had a voucher to use. It is family owned and it is clear that the family and the staff put in a huge amount of effort to make everyone's stay as good as it can possibly be. It is really refreshing to see a hospitality business being run so well and making you feel so welcome after all the problems the industry has faced!

Highly Recommended
Such a friendly family owned business in a lovely little spot. Great for couples and families. The food was great from a buffet breakfast or a cooked option to a huge variety of dinner options. The bar is well stocked with a lovely fire place for those cold nights. Rooms a big, clean and nicely decorated. They are set away from the main pub, very quite with a nice playground for the kiddies.

Perfect for our short break to Alton Towers. Staff were all fabulous and Lee was exceptional with making us feel welcome. Food, wine and staff in the restaurant was also excellent - we couldn’t fault a thing. Highly recommend staying or dining here.
