Does what it says on the tin :)

I had two rooms booked - a twin for one person and a superior double. Both excellent. Gripe for the superior was about a half an hour to run a bath and no Wi-Fi :( possibly due to location at the back of the hotel. We were there for a family 90 th nearby so it was a great opportunity to stay. Accrington was £6 in an uber. Disappointing though to have to pay a tenner if you want to use the pool :( gym free mind. Overall though a great hotel and thanks for the late bar. Our tariff was RO so didn’t try brekky but a very decent stay in this area. Our room was cool despite hot weather so that was good though the windows did open and not too darn the ground floor to be unsafe so defo a dec place to stay thanks.

Terrible room and bathroom. Over priced.

We were put in a room where the toilet was nearly impossible to sit on as it was so close to the wall and it had a toilet roll holder poking out, the bathroom lights did not work and there were people walking around upstairs at 2am being very noisy, we had probably the worst view out of our window too. Wouldn’t stay here again in that room, not worth the money we paid at all.

Liked the venue , grounds and location. Also liked the size of the room and having both a bath and a walk in shower. The beds were comfortable and the breakfast was very good with clarly locally sourced ingredients.Unfortunately , there was no air conditioning which would have been welcomed with the weather we have been having. Would also be a good idea to have wash lotion by the bath and shampoo and conditioner - not just stuck on the wall in the shower.

Booked a Superior double room. We stayed overnight for a wedding which was actually at another nearby venue. The room was large and clean. The shower had very inconsistent temperature. Took some time to get hot water and when it did, it fluctuated. Staying only one night didn't warrant asking to be moved as we only discovered the issue as we were getting ready for the wedding. The hotel has a pool, gym and Spa. If you are staying, you must book a package which includes pool use otherwise its a ten pound per adult cost. We only discovered that when we thought we'd have a quick dip before getting ready. I'll take that on the chin, as i must have missed that somewhere when booking. If i had, i would have booked elsewhere. Thats all. We didnt use any other hotel facilities so can't comment on them.
