Easy check in (special mention to Stacey on reception) who sorted our room issue with no problem whatsoever she was a star, stayed in superior room looking out to the canal very spacious & airy couldn’t fault it, food was delicious & plentiful & drinks reasonably priced for a hotel, surroundings were lovely outside sat by the lake with drinks was very chilled & having the ducks as company was a bonus we will definitely return Alan & Pam Runcorn.
Alan, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Loved everything about The Moat House; the house and grounds were lovely, the room had everything we needed, the food, the breakfast, bar snack and evening meal where perfect and the staff couldn't have been more pleasant.What we loved the most was all the little places you could find to just sit outside, beside the water and also that for breakfast and evening meal you were looking out onto water again. We will definitely come again and highly recommend it. Thankyou for our stay.

Stunning location. Peaceful setting. Quality accommodation with very comfortable spacious rooms. Would recommend the bar / lounge for food and drinks. Breakfast excellent also with a variety of hot and cold dishes. Excellent service throughout my stay.
Graeme, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We have stayed at the Moat House several times, and always eaten in the restaurant. We have always found the rooms to be spacious, clean and comfortable, and the food in the restaurant, both evening meals and breakfast very good.
Anna, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Nice property in a lovely setting. It has a particularly bad problem with flies in the bar and restaurant; so challenging that it became impossible to eat within the building in the evening. A real shame as otherwise this meant for a comfortable stay. Sadly I wouldn’t return for this reason.
Nigel, 1-night trip
