Fabulous hotel and location. Rooms immaculately clean.
Fabulous hotel and location. Rooms immaculately clean.
2 uncomfortable mattresses pushed together leaving a “valley “ in the middle. Tv didn’t pick up signal . Terrible WiFi . Room service never turned up after 2 phone calls I had to go downstairs myself.
Breakfast passable but no one in charge , small portions, tea and coffee in flasks , no orange, no bowls, workman on ladder in middle of food area. Complete lack of management.

Beautiful setting , good size room, comfy bed, swimming pool was nice, friendly staff. Bit disappointed with continental breakfast, only one choice of juice, toaster didn’t toast evenly, tea wasn’t given in pots of tea but waitress brought it round which meant it wasn’t hot also very strong.. the cooked breakfast would probably be better but I can’t comment on that.

The town is beautiful and full of lovely boutique shops. There are convenient grocery shops, hairdressers and salons. There is also a post office and cash machine in the centre. I visited for a family wedding so didn’t have a lot of time to explore, but I would love to stay again and go shopping!

Room was in a very tasteful barn conversion.
Room was in a very tasteful barn conversion. Very spacious and comfortable - a good night’s sleep was easily achieved.
Was a little difficult to find a first as is located down a narrow country lane. But due to this the location was idyllic - the view from the window was of a lovely meadow.
We were only there for one night due to our schedule, but would happily have stayed longer if need be. Would certainly return if we are in the area again.

I love the style of buildings in Tarporley, high street very pleasant for a wander. Quite busy, but for me that adds to the “feel” of the area - i could quite happily live/retire to a town like this
A very comfortable stay in a beautiful setting. The property was perfect, the hosts very hospitable and the accommodation was spotlessly clean. It was a very nice self contained room within quiet surroundings and close to the village of Tarporley which is a very nice part of the world. The locals were friendly and there is a nice Spar shop inside the petrol station where you can pick up whatever you need.
Parking easy and plentiful. Nice pub in a lovely village. The owners are friendly and helpful. Their assistant Sammy is very pleasant, efficient and extremely helpful. Room was clean and we slept very well. We had a couple of steaks which were cooked to our liking. Beer was spot on and wine fairly priced. Cannot comment on breakfast as we didn’t order it. Would definitely stay there again if in the area.
Beautiful country cottage in the middle of the village. Easy to check in and everything was lovely and clean. Plenty of space for all of us and the cottage was kitted out with everything we needed as a 'home from home' even so far as the toys and gaming area for the kids.
You can walk through the village to all of the pubs and restaurants, and there is a lovely grocers store which sells everything.
The room was beautiful. Very well put together, spacious and clean. Easy to access and easy to check in. There isn't hotel parking, but there is a free car park a 60 second walk from the hotel which was easy enough to find The host/staff we friendly and helpful. I needed an iron for one of my outfits and after I requested it they responded quickly and organised one to be brought up to my room.
Really nice cottage in the middle of the village. Great location as we attended a wedding at Peckforton Castle which is nearby. We had a lovely meal in the village and then walked back to the cottage for the wedding party to get ready.
Nicely decorated and set out and tons of space for us all (we were a group of 8 ladies). I have just re-booked to bring my family back next month!
We all enjoyed the breakfast and the staff were excellent in satisfying our needs.
We had two dinners at the hotel and the presentation and quality of the food was excellent.

10/10 for breakfast - so much option and Penelope was very accommodating!
