My significant other and I stayed here during our visit to the UK. They were very friendly from the second we walked in. The room was okay, a little run down. They have a nice lounge/bar area that was very comfortable. The restaurant has good food, definitely try the daily curry special; the chef clearly knows his Indian food!

We were due to visit this hotel for 2 nights 27th & 28th March in order to attend a course. We couldn't go as our 2 dogs both developed cancerous lumps and both had to have major operations one soon after the other. The Birch hotel was phoned by my husband who explained the situation and was told by the... More

My partner and I have been visiting the Birch Hotel for the past 6 months or so. When there has been a problem the staff were apologetic and resolved the issue promptly.

We stayed here 2 years ago and it was a bit of a shambles. We decided The Birch should get a second chance and we're glad we have it that. Yes there appears to be booking issues if using the Internet but the rooms are now BEAUTIFUL! Breakfast was to die for and the lovely lady on reception really made... More

Our AGM has now come and gone, and I just wanted to thank you and all the members of the team for your friendliness and co-operation. As far as we were concerned it all went like clockwork. The facilities were ideal for what we needed. It was an wonderful dinner - as I think some of us have already told... More

Rooms a little noisy, you can hear people walking round, opening and closing doors in the rooms above. Breakfast cooked fresh to order. Easy access for motorway. Good price for what you get....decor... More

We spent last weekend at the Birch Hotel whilst paying long overdue visits to relatives and friends.We were really pleased with our room, the beds were comfy, a bit TOO comfy, didn`t want to get up in the mornings! And there was a decent TV, and a lovely en-suite. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, especially on our... More

During the early summer of 2011 we visited ailing family members in Lancashire. My wife and I visited many so called "Hotels" in the greater Manchester area and our experience was slowly being made into the WORST EVER EXPERIENCE. Hate to say, because I am a Brit, most of the so-called Hotels were staffed by Brits. The service was almost... More
