On-site dining and bar are handy with meal deals, though food quality and breakfast replenishment vary. Access can confuse some drivers due to northbound-only entry and barrier signage. Overall, expect a practical motorway stopover with friendly service and basic comforts.

Simple no fuss motel at the services but surprisingly comfortable and pleasant. Decent food and some good deals available in the restaurant, free parking and a small but usable gym. Can't go wrong for the price.

I was worried about the hotel being at a service station but you wouldn't have known it was there as it was across the way The hotel has a good little gym, a restaurant with good food and good prices, the breakfast was really nice and plenty of choice A nice grass area and seating outside the back, a bar and the room was lovely and clean Very good value for money, the staff are lovely

My room was quite small, and I was unexpectedly charged £5.00 for parking because I booked through Hotels.com rather than directly with the hotel. This additional charge was not clearly mentioned during the booking process, which was disappointing. Clearer communication about parking fees would greatly improve the guest experience.

This was booked as an overnight on the way home from holidays. The room was cramped, the sofa bed was not very comfy. The bathroom was dirty - pubic hairs in the shower and the shower was broken so did not stay up above head. There were 2 towels left for a family of 4 and the pillows were small and lumpy, no extra pillows left in room. Only 2 cups for making hot drinks - for a family of 4. The room was uncomfortably hot. Heating was switched off. Noisy with window open. Fan in room was even noisier.

We stayed as a group of 11 in 5 rooms. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. However the room we stayed in 135 had a very strong smell of urine. I believe this was coming from the carpet. I did make the reception staff aware the following day and they said that they would report it to housekeeping, again the staff were very good. However having a child with us we had to be very careful where we walked.

So, overall this is a completely fine hotel if you need to stay in the Chorley area. It's not spectacular and I didn't really expect it would be a 5 Star place or anything. However, the big issue was the mildew in the bathroom. It was all around the door jam and the shower area. It was so super obvious that it was impossible not to see it. I get it, England is wet and mold is a regular issue. But man... this should be handled easily. The staff were lovely though and I don't think they are intentionally mishandling the room.

While the room looked clean, there was a smell of mould which hit us as soon as we walked in. We thought it might be just that the room hadnt been aired. We opened windows, sprayed perfume and went out for the evening. Unfortunately, the smell was still there on our return and when we woke up the next morning.

Bathroom towels could do with replacing. Windows had blown so condensation between panels. Bed comfy. Did not ahve any food here due to quick stop over

A lovely warm greeting from the team as we checked in. Our room had everything we needed, the beds were comfortable and the hotel was so quiet. We had the meal deal and the quality and amount for what you pay is excellent! I stayed here for a night with my daughter whilst work was being done on the house and we only live 10 mins away. If we lived further afield then Id definitely use this hotel again. For a low budget hotel, its amazing! Everyone is so friendly and polite. I cant rate it highly enough.

I have stayed at this hotel before and that went well so I booked again. Large spacious car park, clean throughout, efficient check in and superb, happy, welcoming staff. I especially want to recognise Seonaid on reception who ran reception and bar so well, and Alix the chef on duty, who despite having very few restaurant users, still prepared the meals to a very high standard with generous portions and excellent presentation. A pleasure to interact with professional hospitality employees.

Our stay here was a good stop-over on our way to Scotland. The only thing that concerned me was the unclear instructions on how to find the place.

Access to property poor. Access from M6 closed due to roadworks. Had to access property from a dark side road through a barrier which took a long time to be opened. Not what's required late at night when youre tired and simply want to sleep. In morning, werent able to leave property by same exit and had to travel miles out of way north on M6 as roadworks had finished.

Room was clean, bed comfortable. Staff friendly. Advised on arrival to prepay for special 2 course dinner rate, which would have been good if there had been starters or dessert we both liked. I only had a main course. Plus the drink ( cider ) my husband ordered for me, didn’t come, after I asked about it, the wrong cider was brought. We waited nearly an hour for our food to arrive and were eventually told our order had been lost ( caught behind another one). We eventually got our food. The supervisor on duty said I’d be refunded, but because I’d paid by card, would have to supply my bank details, which I didn’t have with me ( for security, I don’t keep those details on my phone etc). Supervisor said ‘ no problem, complete the form at reception when you check out, then you can email the details’ but the receptionist on duty didn’t know anything about me emailing my bank details, so I left my email contact and she said the supervisor would email me - nothing yet, 12.55pm 24.06.24, over 24 hrs since we checked out Postcode took us to a different hotel, somewhere close by - identical postcode.
