Stayed here for the night for my birthday. What a beautiful place, staff were so lovely and friendly, food excellent and the room was so comfortable, clean and modern. The tea tray provided was well stocked and lovely products provided in the bathroom. Would highly recommend a trip here, just beautiful.

Have been here for meals several times over the years and always had great food. We moved away and recently returned to the area so have been back a few times recently. The food has been wonderful but tonight such a difference. It’s always crazy busy and tonight was no exception but the normal speedy service did not happen tonight we waited over 30 minutes. My husbands favourite curry was as usual,delicious . My favourite fish pie was considerably smaller and the normal creamy sauce , tonight was very watery.The peas were in a dish with water in which was not only cold but it impossible to get the peas out. The staff were all so busy so couldn’t get their attention and no one came to us to see if food was ok. Such a disappointment. Will try again in the hopes it might have been a one off.

Stayed one night at the Pheasant on a midweek break. It turned out that we arrived on the first snowy day of the year. If anything, the snow added to the already considerable charm of the old inn, nestled in a fold of the Peckforton hills. We were greeted by the hardworking and personable Alisha, who looked after us brilliantly during our stay. We were quickly checked in and directed to our room in the old barn. The room was very comfortable and wonderfully warm, which was welcome, given that the external temperatures were hovering around zero. Standards of housekeeping are impeccable at the Pheasant. The bedroom and bathroom were extremely clean and appeared to have been refurbished relatively recently. The double bed was very comfortable and sleep quality was good. Tea and coffee making facilities were provided. The bathroom was equipped with high quality toiletries. Drinks and dinner at the inn made for a highly enjoyable evening. The food is high-end gastropub and was appreciated by both of us. Breakfast the following day consisted of a wide choice of cereals and juices. There was also an extensive cooked menu. The “full English” was excellent. The stay flew by, and we were sorry to leave. It certainly won’t, however, be our last visit. This wonderful old inn offers visitors the finest traditional British hospitality. It is comfortable, informal and welcoming. The staff are outstanding. Recommended in the highest possible terms.

We met in the Pheasant Inn for a family get together over lunch, unfortunately the food and service was terrible. We ordered snacks and nibbles from the menu but only 2 items came out, we queried where the rest of the food was and was informed it was a mix up in the kitchen and we would receive the food shortly, two members of the party waited over 30 minutes for the rest of the food to arrive. The chips were cold and hard which suggested they weren't fresh, the haloumi in the wrap tasted odd and completely inedible. We were extremely disappointed as we have eaten in the pub previously and was looking forward to lunch.

We asked the hotel to store bank details to pay for food and drink. We stayed three nights and after departure we then had Facebook statuses written about us saying we hadn’t payed the bill. We knew nothing about this as we assumed the hotel would have notified us. Instead the General Manager and another member of staff took it upon themselves to write all over Facebook. Extremely unprofessional. My partner has now lost business because of this. I would not be staying here again. I have never experienced such unprofessional behaviour from a hotel in all the years I have travelled

Set in a rural village in Cheshire, in a beautiful setting. This really has been a lovely experience for us. Accommodation is beautiful. I explained I was allergic to their feather down bedding so they changed it over without any problem. We had a wonderful meal in the restaurant as well. Staff were extremely friendly and attentive to all of our needs. Very knowledgeable and great communication. Very reasonably priced for excellent quality in all areas. Thank you for making us feel very welcome.

Fabulous overnight stay meeting up with friends. The 6 of us stayed in rooms in the barn and they were gorgeous with huge comfy beds a clean bathroom with funky wall tiles and high end bathroom products. Great tea & coffee supplied in the room too. We had drinks and snacks early afternoon and then two course dinners in the evening followed by breakfast. All meals were delish and very well presented. Loved the options for furry friends although we didn’t have any dogs with us, but great idea! Staff were all excellent and so friendly and helpful. They were so patient with us when we were last in the bar by a long chalk and they just let us carry on with our catch up whilst keeping us well supported with food & drinks. We will All be back! Fabulous little place!

My daughter and I stayed here as we attended Bolesworth international at the weekend. Very convenient as only a few miles drive The things that stood out for us was : •the absolutely incredible food (honestly did not expect this level of cuisine here) the dishes were inventive , the flavours to die for and the portions were huge ! Do not lose this chef guys ! •2 members of staff stood out , Mille and a lovely foreign lady with long dark hair - 2 genuinely sweet people who could not do enough to make our stay exceptional, they are a real credit to you. •the views from the room and the room itself was spotless , very nice interior design you can tell a lot of thought gone into it, shower was so good! Negatives : front of house / reception person a little frosty/snappy. Not genuinely welcoming. Seemed a chore for them. Room very very small. Paid quite a lot for b&b so expected it a little larger Champagne by the glass was not cold as it should be or fizzy as it should be. Paid a lot for it so should be perfect. Conditioner in the rooms please. Room service menu would be lovely ! Which is why only 4 stars not 5. But on the whole a really lovely pleasant stay and we hope to book again next year !
