Very restful little oasis set in beautiful grounds
Pros:

What a great small hotel, a jewel in Leyland/Farington. Loved it last year when we stayed and would definately stay again next time we are in area. Spacious room in friendly hotel set in lovely grounds.

Cons:

The shower is a bit small as we pointed out when we were there. Meal was a bit disappointing with little taste in Dill sauce, certainly not up to standard of last year, has the chef changed? Neither slight criticism detracted from our stay nor put us off returning.

Credit where credit is due
Pros:

Nice traditional building, it's like walking into a manor with all the classic décor and high ceilings. The staff were all very helpful and knowledgeable. I was attending a private dinner with my family for a 50th wedding anniversary. The food was excellent. Everyone in our group was very happy. The service was perfect. The room set up for our meal was perfect and looked grand.

Cons:

I really needed a drink of water at night. I wish I had a bottle of water. Unfortunately the cold water tap was hot due to the heating being on.

Very enjoyable, will look forward to staying again!
Pros:

The property and surrounding landscape is beautiful with majestic trees. The dining room was perfectly arranged, with a decent atmosphere and background music. Breakfast was really, really nice. Also had a lovely evening meal. ALL the staff are a credit to the hotel sector, and really attentive and enjoy looking after you.

Cons:

The room (15) was a good size with everything including coffee etc. The room was quite airy as the original Georgian sash windows don't yet have the hidden integral seals or brushes that can be fitted, so let in cold winds and noise, and lets out much of the heat during the night. A "snake" draught excluder between the top and bottom sash would save a fortune in heating and make the room feel warmer.

It's a repeat stay - staff overstretched so they couldn't serve bar customers, i will return
Pros:

The breakfast has a number of options and was served well

Cons:

This company has a dreadful habit of inserting a 'service charge' when you receive your bill. It means you have to alter your approach and there is a sense of unnecessary embarrassment.
They have adequate rooms but bizarrely only place two small pillows on a large bed which makes it look like someone has borrowed the other two pillows for another room

Tired and in need of major makeover
Pros:

Good location for where we needed to be, staff were helpful and breakfast was a little haphazard but good and the gardens were very pleasant

Cons:

Bedroom was not clean and bed was small and not comfortable for a couple
Windows did not open not allowing any air to circulate especially on a warm or stuffy evening
There was a step up to the bathroom which was difficult to negotiate especially for older persons during the night
