This was our return visit from around 15 years ago! We really look forward to it, and were not disappointed. We did the Dine & Stay, as a couple. Romantically, we had the same room as our first visit all those years ago,by sheer coincidence. The room was comfortable and a very nice country home feeling to it, as it still has the high ceiling of the original barn building from its very early conversion. The bathroom has been completely renovated and is very spacious with large shower and powerful heating to keep the large room warm in the cold winter (we visited on a cold February night). As we arrived at lunchtime, the Dine & Stay offer can be split over the stay. As such, we had an option from the starter menu - seafood cocktail and a Pate, and added a side of chips and one of salad. This was plenty for lunch. Evening dinner meant we opted for Main and Dessert. We both had pies, and we were very impressed with these. The pastry was perfect and hand made. Food was piping hot and a very substantial plate of food. Dessert was one crumble and custard, and one JD Sundae (I highly recommend this!!!). A good night's sleep and back in for breakfast. To be honest, we were still quite full from dinner last night. However, we obviously opted for the Full English, but didn't manage to finish the whole plate, but it was delicious. Staff are fabulously friendly and very keen to help with any query. They are very attentive, so you don't have to worry about getting their attention or not having a drink quickly enough - they made the stay 100%. Will not leave it so long for our next visit. The scenery is stunning. We even saw a huge brightly coloured bullfinch outside the bathroom window!

Stayed here on the stay and dine package last night, £155 per couple ,includes room,3 course meal,and breakfast, the room's are very cosy and clean, you can choose anything on the menu when you dine, no set menu, be careful the portion sizes are big so you better be ready for a feast of top quality food,the dining areas are top quality, and the service is excellent, I had the mixed grill for a main course but couldn't finish it.then came the morning and breakfast, great choice on the menu,and portion sizes again huge, this is a great place to stay, or just dine.if you ever get the chance pay this place a visit, just remember your in for a feast. Will definitely come back again, based on the package deal for £75 per person it's a no brainer, for that I'll give it 10/10.

The Ryles Arms is a hidden gem in the Cheshire Hills on the edge of the Peak District, near to the Macclesfield Forest. Comfortable ensuite rooms in the barn conversion. No coffee maker in the room due to covid but delicious fresh coffee is provided on asking. Staff are all extremely friendly and helpful. Food absolutely excellent - enormous portion sizes, freshly cooked and with some interesting dishes on the menu. The Pepper Bagger Steak was delicious. Locally brewed ales to wash it down. Good hearty breakfast. Everything very clean and covid-safe. looking forward to returning at a later date.

Arrived mid afternoon and shown room however light not working at far end of room (no.2) where the drink facility was, the girl that showed us the room said it had just gone therefore total darkness when it came to making a drink also the actual jug would not fit the tap so had to fill a mug and then fill the water heater. Woken twice in the night due to emergency lighting coming on as an alarm went off, this happened twice, so a really disturbed night. Food was really good no complaints there, just felt shattered next day due to the broken night's sleep. Weather wasn't great and no facility with the computer to pay next day but that was sorted later by telephone.

We stayed overnight at the Ryles, £135 for three courses, room and breakfast, bargain, the food is always good and my chicken starter and steak main was spot on as always, I shouldn't have had a pudding because there wasn't really room, food 10/10 Breakfast there was a choice i went for full English which again was excellent. Room wasn't as expected but enough for the night, bed lovely and comfy, shower room spot on, decor was in need of a paint and spider webs were a plenty, emergency light kept flashing on and off which was annoying and whoever was in the upstairs room was doing some sort of walking marathon. We would definitely go back for food as its highly recommended but not bothered about staying again, nobody asked if everything was OK

Lovely extension on the pub and the overall decor is of a high standard and tastefully done. Good choice of food but some items on the menu had been discontinued. Service was excellent but the food was very average. Vegetarian lasagne had far too much,very stretchy, cheap cheese on the top. This made it difficult to eat. Garlic bread was tough and the salad was tasteless and undressed. A shame.

Having eaten here several times and visiting regularly with every prior meal being faultless we were really disappointed to visit today and both have awful meals, we both had a steak, both asked for medium rare, my 8oz came well done and my boyfriends 12oz was riddled with fat to the point only a third being actually edible, the chips that accompanied both were clearly heavily fried and resembled cheap chip shop chips and were really under done. The waitress offered to replace my steak however after waiting an initial 20 mins and it being completely packed out I declined as I didn’t want to end up eating my meal alone after my boyfriend had finished, no further communication was directed to us after the plates were cleared so we weren’t given the opportunity to express our disappointment further. It was pretty much dismissed therefore the dessert we’d planned on ordering after, we decided not to bother and leave. Left feeling really underwhelmed, out of pocket and very hungry.

Wow, a few if our friends have recommended the Rykes Arms, and I am soo glad we have eventually experienced the dine and stay deal.. what can I say, the staff are incredible, from the moment we walked through the door, to to moment we left, a smile on everyone face, and so chatty and helpful, a total credit to the Ryles, a special shout out to the young girl who loomed after us, unfortunately we didn't take her name, ( just passed her driving theory, and her dad has an S type jag, you are a star ) OK, so the the food and room, a 10☆ plus, on the food, 6 if us ate, and not one single negative comment, we staggered out 3 courses, taking the first at 5 pm, then returned at 7pm for the remaining food. If I have to highlight one thing, it is the JD sundae 🍨. Oh, and the rib eye, it and the sea bream. All beautiful in pr3peration and presentation.... Breakfast, omg again, excellent. And the girls looking after the 6 if us were tremendous
The rooms are exactly what is required, an excellent shower combination, incorporating a rain effect.
See you again soon chaps
Ps I unable to upload the breaky pics, as the resolution is too high

We have just been to the Ryles arms for tea and it was the best food we have eaten in a long time. We will definitely be returning fabulous fresh food absolutely delicious. The trip was only made better by the staff that work here I sadly never got our waitresses name but she was so lovely and welcoming made our day she is a credit to the pub. All the staff are fantastic. The only down side to our visit was 3 very rude what can only be described as complete snobs who constantly argued with the staff because they didn't want to pay for an extra person to stay in a room they were absolutely disgusting to the staff and they should be ashamed of them selves. The staff handled the situation really well.
