Atmosphere & Facilities

"A huge bar, restaurant and patio area make this a cracking venue to meet up with friends to eat, drink and get very merry."

"Fresh decor, light airy seating with a huge conservatory and playing space for the kids."
"The beer garden is great too there’s flowers and there’s some under cover arenas and a play area."
"Great pub/ restaurant, with the look of a swanky wine bar, but with lovely non pretentious visitors, nice friendly local atmosphere."
Cons:
"It now resembles a gravel car park, with most pitches having no privacy or space to sit out."
"Also there is a live band on at the weekend plus outdoor bar -so can be noisy till 11pm -maybe not for everybody ??"
"There is also large items of rubbish such as mattresses and bed heads abandoned on the carpark close to the entrance to the campsite."
"The restaurant was cold there was no heat."
"The decor in the room could be updated it's very 80s!"
"It was a busy dining night so was quite loud so wouldn't suggest it for a quiet romantic meal."

Accommodation
Pros:
"The accommodation was thoroughly clean and the bed and pillows very comfortable."
"The room we stayed in was large and comfortable and had everything we needed."
"Immaculate rooms. Quiet and relaxed atmosphere. Best sleep, away from home, I've had in ages."
"Room was really comfortable with free tea / coffee."
"The rooms are a great bonus if you need a place to stay in a quiet and rural setting but not too far from Lytham or Blackpool."
"Rooms were large and airy and plenty of hot water!!!"
"We stayed in the executive suite and it is absolutely stunning and spotlessly clean."
Cons:
"The room doors do not lock on closure but have to be physically locked with the mortise and I kept forgetting."
"£130.00 for a room one might think is a price that would satisfy an inclusive breakfast??"
"The walls where thin so could hear the people upstairs snoring however had a good sleep and didn't spend too much time in here."
"Lovely room but very noisy. We were told that we should turn off the Saniflow unit at night, which we did. However there was still a fan noise we could hear."
"The rooms where ok, really big but maybe a little dated in comparison to the bar."
"We were given the key to our room but after a little while the power went off which resulted in us moving rooms which was on the upper floor."
"Close to a noisy aircraft factory so you may see the occasional interesting flying object..."

"So worth the guilty calories, really reasonably priced and served by friendly staff."
"Both food and service were very good and good value for money."
Cons:
