Been here several times great size rooms.
Stay mainly at front part of hotel
But this time we stayed at the added on part at the rear.
The room are still very spacious with the bathroom large and disabled access.
But the decor of the room I was in 181 left a lot to be desired.
Where the radiator under window had been moved old holes and raw plugs left sticking out the same in bath room where soap dispenser had been moved
Mastic round windows need replacing.
There was a massive water stain in the ceiling from a previous leek and smelt bit damp and musty.
The location is great for trips to Blackburn Burnley Manchester bolton and bury it's self
The facilities at the village are great swimming pool and gym spa etc
The breakfast was a bit ropey in busy periods
Not sure if the hotel has new owners but it needs a bit of tlc but love stay there for are football weekends away when we are up tut north

Had a lovely stay here! Was welcomed and helped through reception with bags! Had a lovely upper deck room! The Starbucks was a perfect extension fo our lovely weekend! Was great to see they have a extensive gym and an amazing pool! The pub and restaurant are a great place to eat! Some great deals on, we decided to take one of the deals from the restaurant for two courses and had the soup and the teriyaki salmon! Really great!

This hotel is a great place for a business stay, fantastic gym facilities. Great choice of food, the meal I had was ok, nothing special but enough to keep me happy, it's good you can eat in two different restaurants or room service.
The room was well equipped with an iron and kettle already in the room which for me is a real must, it's the most anointing thing when they aren't provided.
The only problem and this may not apply to all was that the iron in the room turned out to be dirty and made a mark on my shirt. So perhaps a little more care and attention when cleaning the room is needed.
Anyway generally recommended and quite good value.

My partner and I were only here for one night and were rather pleased with the place. The room was nice and spacious, and the double bed was so wide you could roll over 3 times and still not fall out of it. The room has this key card which took us a while to figure out (the instructions on it are a bit unclear), especially when it comes to using the lights in the room (when we got there it was quite dark so it took us a while to figure out that we had to leave it in a slot on the wall for them to work). Then again, this could also be due to the fact that we are rather simple people.
After reading some of the other reviews we were expecting the hotel to be a bit loud as it is often used for functions and parties. The staff were obviously aware of that and tried to be accommodating by placing us in a wing of the hotel that was away from the other guests on a wedding party. We did hear them in the night, but we were prepared for this and packed some earplugs in advance.
Breakfast was nice and there was a lot of variety, though the bread and pastry were a bit stale.
Overall, it was a good stay and we will stay here again.

This place has a crazy configuration due to its build ons. To get to your room, its possible to take the lift up one floor, then after a bit of a walk, have to take a second lift down one floor to get to your room. You may find it a bit of a challenge after spending too long at the bar.
Other than that, a pleasant surprise is that some rooms back on to the quaint little river (complete with rapids) at the back of the hotel. If you crack the wind open at night, you can fall asleep to the lovely sound of tumbling water, I kid you not.
To prove I am not joking, ask for rooms in the similar facing as 184. I got free Wi-Fi and breakfast is very good as well.
Food in the restaurant is ok and reasonably priced. Staff are friendly. Prices are cheaper than average for the quality, in my opinion.
Oh yeah, the car park is very close to the entrance. Makes a difference when it's pi**ing down, let me tell you.

Stayed now a few times at this hotel and whilst it is a fair hotel it is most certainly not one I would get excited about. Rooms are clean but in need of a spruce up. Overall hotel is ok with a good gym but everything is very average.

This is a huge hotel and look very impressive from the outside. The rooms are ok, they are prefectly functional with the usual tea and coffee etc but they are slightly dissapointing. The double room we had booked was 2 single beds pushed together with sheet over them both. The bathrooms especially are very outdated and show signs of patched up paintwork and just general wear and tear. We were kept awake by our noisy neighbours who came back to there room around 2am and continued to party (this is obviously not the hotels fault).
We did have a few drinks in the bar which was nice and had a great atmosphere. And a huge TV which was showing football. We asked at the bar for a ice bucket and some glasses so we could drink our own wine in the room and the bar maid kindly provided this for us. Our booking included breakfast and this was very nice, lots of fresh hot food and a nice selection of pastries.
We did not use the pool as we didnt have time but it looked spotless and i definatly use it if we ever stayed here again.
I believe this hotel is due to be refurbished soon, and i am sure when this is completed the hotel will be fantastic.

We attended a Take That tribute night and stayed overnight on 13th December.We had a great night with fabulous entertainment and a good dj playing a variety of music for all ages. I think the entertainment was a little late as there was a lull in the evening after the meal and I don't think the band should have encouraged dancers on to the dance floor whist they were performing as we could not see their act .The meal was ok for the price paid but the waiting staff were all a bit surly and couldn't crack a smile at all and looked totally fed up.
Check in went well with two very amiable,friendly ,knowledgeable receptionists to inform us of the procedures.We had a great room 188 , with a good view of the river,it was lovely and quiet and surprisingly spacious.We realised that this was a room for a disabled person as it had a wet room and very low down sink etc.
All in all a good hotel with a great breakfast,a little pricey at nearly £10 but great choice and all hot and well cooked in smart surroundings.
All in all a good stay albeit the rooms looking a bit tired and in need of painting, which we understand a refurbishment is underway at the moment.
Would definitively stay here again.

9 Ladies attended the boogie wonderland on Friday 27th November for our annual christmas night out.
We couldn't have picked a better event/venue that suited all of us.
On arrival we walked up a corridor dressed like a red carpet event which was the entrance to the function room. Our bags were searched for alcohol. we had done secret santa and in two of the gifts were alcohol but wrapped up. we requested the gifts be opened and put the alcohol away with staff until the end of the night...this was kindly agreed.
The function room was dressed well...loved the table decs and props.
The set meal was delicious and exceeded our expectations for a sitting of a large number. Service was quick but staff could do with being a little more smiley/friendly.
The DJ was a good laugh.
A bottle of presecco was purchased in a ice bucket. only half was drunk and we went to dance. staff were clearing tables of glasses and rubbish but the bottle was also taken and thrown. One of our group went to the bar to complain. The staff were sincere and apologetic and issued a full new bottle.
Overall this was a great night and we will consider booking here again next Christmas.

Excellent value, good choice for all courses and suitable for all the family. Our party has included a grand-daughter at 3 years old upto myself at 69 and all enjoyed on each of 6 visits we have made to the Sunday Buffet.
