Plenty of pubs close by and convenience store. We had a very pleasant and friendly meal in the Bulls breakfast is busy, and therefore a... More

Stayed here for one night after a day at Alton towers in the boudier room.. It was amazing! The room was spotless, well presented and the bed was soooo comfy, just what I needed after a long day getting thrown about on rides! The owners are friendly and show you everything you need to know and also were able to... More

I recently stayed at this hotel and was very impressed. We had planned a trip to Alton Towers with three other couples. The hotel was within five minutes drive of the park so the location was perfect and there were a few pubs within walking distance so we had a very nice meal out and even a game of table... More

The pancakes are what I would recommend. The staff were very friendly and there is a small bar downstairs, which had my favourite... More

We stopped in the Marilyn Monroe room which was lovely, very clean and comfortable. Adorable little touches like Love Heart sweets on the pillow and the welcome couldn't be faulted. The whirlpool bath is heavenly but careful with the body wash as otherwise you'll end up with a foam party ;^) They had plenty of info on the local eateries... More

We stayed at Bank House on the 28th of April, a large group of us, using four of their very ample bedrooms. From making the booking to checking out the service didnt faulter. Every room is a unique experience and I will stay here again. Perfect if you are visiting Alton Towers (which is two miles door to door away).... More
