What more could you want!! Thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay with my daughter and son-in-law Hope to visit again. Evelyn & Paul Kavanagh.”

“Have been here twice for afternoon tea. The first one (in December) was lovely, but unfortunately spoilt by finding out on the day we couldn't stay longer than an hour due to needing to prepare the restaurant for their Christmas parties. This was not explained to us when we booked. To be fair to them after we complained they got in touch straight away and offered us a complimentary afternoon tea. Our second visit was even better. A lovely selection of cakes and sandwiches, plenty of tea in a lovely setting. We will definitely go back.”

“Firstly I think it’s important to note this is a cafe that is connected to a family support centre and counselling service. It’s cheap and it is supposed to be somewhere accessible for people who access the services next door, as well as for anybody who uses the park. I actually came here not because of this but because I had attended a baby class in the adjoining room, so my friend and I had coffee and cake here. It’s a great little place, so cheap and the staff are friendly too. There’s a seating area outside as well for warmer days. It’s a lovely little cafe if you’ve had a walk in the park or want to meet a friend with your little ones. They also offer a range of food and I’ve-cream in summer, but we always went primarily for coffee and cake, both of which were always spot on. We used to go here every week after baby classes, and will continue to do so after Covid. This cafe definitely deserves our support so that it stays open in the future.”

“Friendly staff, nice rooms, great location for access to the airport”

“Absolutely wonderful Spa experience! I had an amazing full body massage, enjoyed a relaxing facial and even got a lovely manicure. The staff are so lovely and sweet, especially the lovely Danae who also me through my treatments. Cannot recommend this place enough, always such great service every time!”

“Stopped on the way on holiday and the room, restaurant and service was all good. Booked a last minute night returning due to a very delayed flight, and again got a good rate and good service. The cherry on the top was a surprise bottle of wine to celebrate our honeymoon. Not expected at all and such a lovely gesture. ☺️”

“Our second visit to Ash Farm and didn't disappoint. Another warm welcome from Jan, David and Christian. Rooms are lovely and clean and well stocked with the normal tea, coffee etc Breakfast is excellent, so much choice and cooked to order. 5 minute walk to Dunham Massey and lovely homely pub next door with a real coal fire”

“We stayed here to attend a family wedding; it was truly lovely. We enjoyed the food very much, the setting is very pleasant and the house is very characterful. The opposite of a Premier Inn or something perhaps. Our hosts could not do enough to help us.”

“Just spent a wonderful afternoon on the Judith Mary, Suzy and the team couldnt do enough to ensure we all had a good time, fresh sandwiches, warm scones and gorgeous moving scenery.”

“We came here 2/3 weeks ago whilst my daughter was having a trial day at nursery! We had two English breakfasts and they were honestly the best breakfasts I’ve had. The sausages were from Andy Taylor’s ( a local lovely butchers) the egg was cooked to perfection, everything was lovely. 10/10 would recommend and we will be back!”

“Beautiful Cafe and Shop all run by a friendly happy group of volunteers. It's always a pleasure to visit and the breakfast barm cakes are delicious”

“We have used the pet boarding for our two guinea pigs several times and would never use anyone else. Tanya is amazing with the animals and they are looked after exceptionally well. The extra services are also great as the piggies usually come back smelling and looking fab!”

“Lovely holiday park. Sally and her team were superb and very professional. We stayed in one of the glamping pods. It was clean and suited us for the couple days. The environment was very quiet and calm when we were there(Easter weekend 22).Felt safe as well, frequent checks were done by security around the site. There's lots to explore in and around the area. The local Tesco is just a stone throw away. Our son enjoyed himself and that was the whole idea. Will visit this park again.”
