Generally great.

Lovely hotel, clean and comfortable. A little expensive but generally worth the money. Excellent food and polite helpful service. Couple of things let it down, coffee machine in room not working and TV remote did not work until switched out batteries in remote.

The staff were very attentive and helpful. The menu was a bit limited but the cooking was good. Little Morton Hall and Jodrell Bank are both nearby. We were in the annex (room 22) which was a bit on the small side with no chair though the decor was fine and the room well serviced.
