Ploughing Inn

The hotel itself was clean but worn. The room was very hot and there was only a very small fan to cool the room when we had to close to door and window. Breakfast was very good.

Business trip to Mac - Hidden gem!

Comfortable room. Great food, beer and service in the pub. plus a great breakfast in the morning. About to leave and found I had a flat tyre due to a puncture. The staff were brilliant and let me have use of my room until I managed to get someone out to repair it. Will stay again next time I am visiting the area on business.

Irregular Visitor

I stay at The Plough when in the area and have for 12 years. There is a good pub and pretty good selection of food. Rooms are OK - beds a little hard. Very good value

Awful Experience

Arrived tired and ready to relax. We were booked in room five of the hotel annaexe. What greeted us was a dirty stained carpet and a soiled bed headboard that would be better placed in a builders skip. The bedding was clean but full of holes. The bathroom was beyond words, but the ones I will use is grubby with black mold, and scalding hot water from a shower tap that couldn,t be controlled. Not all the lights were working. Disco in barn win was disturbing and we were not informed that this was on before we booked. Overall the worst hotel we have ever stayed in.

Handy on the way to Manchester

Brief overnight stop on a long drive into Manchester. A bit noisy at night due to party in the pub across from the lodgings but ended before too late. Great staff, good full English breakfast (though lacking vege alternative). Comfortable and with friendly staff.
