Balmoral Lodge

"It was cold dark and old. plug sockets wronge way round in our room. Also shows a garden area which you have pay extra 19 pound to use or to sit in. Had pay a extra 5 pound for breakfast which we thought was a bit cheap. It was awful scrambled eggs look like a flyer egg smashed up. Fruit was all blackish looked like they been their all week and the cheapest bread to make your own toast I give the Breakfast 1 out 10."

"Great location. Rooms tired and out dated. Great idea to have patio doors leading to garden Although dogs can stay, they are not allowed in dining area, but breakfast can be brought or ordered to eat in own room. Staff very friendly."

"Overnight stay while visiting relatives. Some off road parking, but plenty in immediate area too. Walking distance into town, to Hesketh Park and round the block to the 'Imp' for dinner/ a pint. Spacious twin room 7; warm, comfortable beds. Shower attachment over bath a little feeble and the toilet cistern takes a long time to noisily fill,(should be fixable,) but everything you might need was provided. Room 2 single is 'cosy' but functional. The skirting board socket didn't seem to be working, so no safe alternative to boil kettle (other power option was over bed). Didn't manage to find anyone to let them know. Breakfast was fabulous. Everything you might imagine was offered, including a cooked traditional range of food. Wonderful view of the sunken garden at breakfast. As much tea and coffee, toast as you wanted. Nothing was rushed. Lovely, friendly place. The lady hosting breakfast managed several tables with great charm. Would recommend for a good value stopover."

"Lovely room, nice big comfy bed, there was a mini fridge with drinks in it you could have for a small price, tea and coffee and a hairdryer was provided, it was a very warm room so had the window open most of the stay which isn't a problem. The only criticism I have is that the bathroom door doesn't close on its own, the shower needed fixing and possibly provide some glasses rather than plastic cups and also not great for disabled people as there are a lot of stairs. Overall I would definitely stay here again, staff were lovely the hotel over all is lovely and the location is fantastic. Definitely value for money."
