Lovely place

Staff superb. Clean and tidy. Sofa bed was the worst Ive ever slept on. £17 for one pint and a glass of wine is robbery. Lovely scenery round and about. Runcorn was surprisingly a lovely place. Would go again, but take my own booze and not have a Sofa bed option.

Great family stay

We stayed here while our home was being repaired following a flood. The staff are excellent and the rooms are ideal. We requested a change for the last few nights to accommodate our grandchildren in adjoinjng rooms. This was no problem.
