2 Night Stay

We stayed for two nights for a local wedding venue. The Pub, Food and drinks and hospitality were excellent ! However The rooms were ‘ok’ but slightly dated now, and in need of some upgrades. But on the whole a great stay 👍

Huge car park. Room was very nice. I needed a walk in shower and one phone call a little while before we were due to go sorted out a room with accessible shower. Set in a pretty village. Breakfast was really good. Evening meal very good too. Extremely pleasant staff. We booked The Waddington arms as we were going to a family wedding being held close by at the Out Barn. We would recommend this hotel to anyone who is in the clitheroe/Waddington area. A good base to explore some lovely countryside.

The Waddington Arms is a centre piece location in the beautiful village of Waddington. It ticks all the boxes of what you would want from a country pub. Great staff, food, atmosphere cozy log burner . Nothing negative to report.

Nice stay

Been a few times to the Waddington Arms, Good value in a great location,all staff work hard,and are friendly and want to be helpful. We stayed in the new refurbished cottage right next to the pub- all kept clean with good quality towels, changed daily and plentiful, no wardrobe in the room,a robe hook on the bathroom door along with a shelf in shower/ shelf/ cupboard for basin bits and pieces, minor issues really though. Tea / coffee tray/ complimentary biscuits/water, excellent. Back to the pub-great beers and great choice of food at a reasonable price.we will be back! Thanks to all staff.

Lovely staff who were very helpful. For a four star hotel there were significant lacks. No grab handle for the in bath shower. No glasses or sufficient towel rails in bathroom. Furniture too rusticated. A beautiful old building but details have been missed.

Old fashioned characterful property, with friendly and helpful staff. Excellent breakfast, good parking, and would imagine a great outside area to the rear on a summers day.
