Absolutely lovely meal

We came across this pub on a drive the other day and decided to book in for lunch. Really cosy style pub with lovely log fires, different seating areas and a large car park. There are amazing views from the back of the pub. Extensive menu with something for everyone and the prices are decent also far too many pubs these days yet to make their menus posh and fancy but this one is great home cooked food and lots of choice.

Would not recommend to anyone!

Booked a family meal for my sons birthday yesterday, what a disappointment. Some of the choices that our family ordered had run out, bearing in mind it was only 4.30pm, then some of the meals were under cooked. Next was the sweet course, no chocolate ice cream, someone ordered the lemon sorbet cheese cake and guess what no lemon sorbet left also they had run out of baileys for our coffee. It was a very disappointing evening and would never go again.

Quite uncomfortable due to the freezing cold room

The room was freezing cold. We couldn't get the temperature above 15oC and the air conditioning blew cold air all night. The shower room was freezing , even with the heated towel rail on. The breakfast wasn't very hot. The receptionist took a note of the problems we had encountered but didn't really offer any apology.

Food hygiene is a joke.

There were other, potentially serious, problems. Firstly the stale milk, both in my room and at breakfast. This was totally unacceptable, as everyone knows about food hygiene standards nowadays. If that wasn’t enough, the room was on the cramped side, my egg’s benedict has no butter and the waitresses forgot my orange juice. Oh and I had to ask for the complimentary coffee to be placed in my room(with food). How can you charge £180/night for a room and not even provide the free drinks?

It's the last time I will visit this place.

It’s the very first time I wanted to leave a review to a restaurant. I thought I must share my experience with people who’re thinking about visiting this restaurant. Totally unhappy experience in terms of food and service we received. Long waiting time for the food (an hour) and none of us enjoyed the food nor their service.

Thwaites hospitality is unbelieveable

We arrived at 6.45 approximately and many people were eating meal in the outdoor area.We purchased our drinks (cost about £20.00).When we asked for menu to order meals we were told that they had stopped serving meals in outdoor area (despite fact that people around us were being served with full meals. When we asked what time they were supposed to stop serving meals outside, we were told there was no set time, they had just decided (for their own convenience) to stop at that minute.

Typical Thwaites overpriced & unedifying

We stayed at this hotel as we were attending a wedding reception. i think the hotel is overated as it needs updating. The room was tiny and very old fashioned. The drinks were expensive and the snack we had in the bar before the wedding was overpriced a burger and chips was £22.50 i would have expected steak for that price. I would not recommend this hotel,We also didnt have breakfast as it was £27.00 each

Shocking behaviour

The table became available just as my husband was ordering drinks so we all started to make our way through, only to be confronted with the rudest person I have ever encountered. She stood behind the bar and yelled they are not having that table. Absolutely horrified I was carrying my 9 month old grandson, so felt the only thing to do was to leave I have no words to describe the absolute horror this woman was. I would never set foot in that "pub" again.

Disappointing.

The single room was dreadful. No chair to sit on. No shelving in bathroom to put toiletries on and the shower smelt of cat pee. Not a pleasant room to be in . Certainly not four star. It smelt awful, staff put bleach down the shower drain. Smell came straight back. Better rooms in a Premier Inn. Breakfast let down by having to wait too long fir your breakfast to come when ordered.

I paid for 3 empty rooms out of 4 at the Cottons hotel

Unable to reclaim this expense at work, so I personally lost +£420. I was hoping for some professional interaction and understanding from the hotel but the first time I got silence and on the subsequent occasion, received a direct no at reception. Pretty sure a hotel such as Cottons could have survived without this additional revenue. Will not book any of my clients into Cottons hotel again and warn my colleagues to avoid this hotel.

Family birthday

The staff were very helpful on arrival by holding the door open as some of our party had mobility issues. Very welcoming. Busy pub but staff very efficient without rushing guests to choose food or drink. Excellent food. Good sized portions. Had salmon and prawn cocktail. Duck chorizo salad and goats cheese parcel. Mains were beef and mushrooms pot pie and thai salmon salad. Very tasty.

Gorgeous country pub

Just what you needed on a miserable Misty cold day. Roaring fire and cosy oldie worldy decor. Lots of parking. Very pleasant staff. The fish butty ( on a brioche bun) & mushy peas also with skinny fries. The beer battered haddock was beautiful. The goosnargh chicken BLT on brioche was also spot on and will definitely return. Highly recommended

Not good at all

My family and I had a meal at the traders arms and it was a disappointment, after reading all the reviews we thought we would give it a go, but the food was awful and the service was even worse, won't be returning.

Bitter experience

It really pains me to write a bad review of this pub as I have supported this pub for over 20 years but the sourness of the landlady left an incredible bitter taste in my mouth and I will not set foot in here again. The landlady was behind the bar on arrival but did not acknowledge me or my family. On ordering food, the grumpiness with me and the staff from the landlady was noticeable. The table next to us was served before us despite ordering after us.

Well situated but otherwise poor.

Room service poor- some food undercooked. Requested a ground floor room and had this confirmed by the hotel. Arrived to be given a room on floor 3 with no option to move. Room and communal areas very dated. Various stains in room. Communication with the spa very poor. Not enough staff at breakfast causing delays and inaccuracies in orders for group. For the cost of the room I would expect a better standard. Noise from other rooms was distracting.

Sunday lunch simply dreadful

Under new management so hope it will improve. It is awful at the moment so I should give it a month. Soggy veg, tasteless food or salty and slow in coming. Used to be so good.
