Was bitten by fleas during our stay, mentioned this to reception and I assume a manager the next morning and I was told that it had been a while since a dog stayed in our room… There wasn’t any care with either member of staff not much was said to me just stared at, it was quite awkward. It’s a shame we won’t be staying again purely because it the way the situation was handled. The floor in our room was filthy… Dusty, rubbish from previous guests left in the room and empty packets of the complementary coffee and sugar.

Lovely stay, other than wifi :)
We came here for two nights while visiting Alton Towers. It was the second time we stayed here, and the cleanliness and comfort were great, as were the staff (who were all lovely!) Only thing we would say is that understandably for the location, the mobile service isn’t great, however there was unfortunately also really temperamental wifi, which kept dropping, making it difficult to look anything up at all. Other than that, everything else was great, and we would recommend to anyone (if they don’t mind some bad wifi and service!)

Wow, what a gem! We had a fabulous experience from start to finish. The service was outstanding, and the atmosphere so warm and friendly. The room was fantastic, and the bed—haven't slept that well in ages! The food was simply to die for, in the best way possible. We originally planned to stop over on our way to the Lakes, but after this visit, we'll definitely be back. Highly recommend! ♥️

Very close to Alton Towers and in a nice surrounding. Free parking and very friendly staff. However, the one of the two bedrooms had a strong damp smell, the toilet was cramped. No air freshner was available either.
