We received a lovely warm welcome on arrival , our room was modern clean and very big in comparison to other hotels we’ve stayed in. We opted for a meal in the bar , which again was lovely and served in ample time. Beds were super comfortable and aided a good nights sleep. We hadn’t planned to have breakfast, but decided to in the morning. Again we were greeted with a warm welcome and talked through the options and were offered hot drinks straight away. There were plenty of fresh breakfast options and although I personally think hotel breakfast in general are over priced , here I didn’t feel ripped off. We chose this hotel due to its location to Cheshire Oaks outlet village, it is only 5mins away and close to the motorway which made it a perfect choice. We had stayed at this hotel many years ago for the same reason and we won’t hesitate to return next time a shopping trip beckons.
