Room was clean but very cold. Shower and tap both leaked. Shower temperature was uncontrollable and shower head was like a tap. Glad we weren't paying full price for this stay. Room only. Breakfast was extra.
The hotel was clean and I had a very good nights sleep. There was plenty of parking and evening meal was good. Wi Fi was not very good and 8 had no mobile signal throughout my stay.
The paint decoration in the rooms is rather dark, but the place is good.
Bed pillows and duvet are great, good room and spacious shower. Breakfast was also really good.
Very relaxing environment, would definitely stop again if in the area.
Incredible service .... I arrive very late after midnight due to flight delay ... and people stay just for me !
In the morning an very nice breakfast ... with many choice.
Liz and her team run a very friendly, comfortable, hotel and bar. The food is the best in Prestbury and the Cocktails are superb. We slept incredibly well and left feeling very chilled.
We stayed for a visit to Jodrell Bank but may well just come back to chill
Generally it was good but the rooms were much too dark. I quite like dark decor but the lighting didn’t compensate for this when I needed it. The bathroom was the same and the lighting was so dysfunctional that I couldn’t use it to put my makeup on. You need some functionality in the bathroom but unfortunately there was none

1 night stay
Overnight stay, friendly welcome and an enjoyable evening meal. Breakfast was hit and miss, with various options unavailable. The room was very small, very hot and in need of decoration.
Room very dark due to the decorating and inadequate lighting. Poor WIFI too.
Comfy bed and great shower though.

I had a very good meal in the restaurant but the room was dark and depressing. This was partly the decor, with all the walls and ceiling painted a very dark blue/black, but there were also signs of damp, with peeling plaster.
The picture is the view from the window, which is supposed to be a view of the river.

We loved the bar and restaurant area, the decor was nice and the whole area was clean. Food and drink was very good. Friendly staff.
Slightly disappointed in the room, mostly clean but not in the best condition. Bed was on a slant so nearly rolled off in the night. Could do with either air con or access to a fan as room got very warm (did stay in the middle of a heat wave though)
