Really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, it was a great find from me and my wife when looking for a place just off the M6 in Cheshire! The kids enjoyed the stay too, with big smiles on their faces after breakfast time. Special shout out to a worker called Caleb and the hosts, who all made us feel very welcome. We stayed here the other week before visiting family in Cheshire and we will definitely be returning soon to spend another night or two here.

Needed hotel as visiting family near by, this was in an excellent location. Alsager is a lovely town, we visited a lovely bakers and had a lovely lunch. Also pubs and couple of restaurants nearby for evening meals. If you like national trust, there's a quaint place called Little Morton Hall worth a visit. The hotel was run by lovely people, and the breakfast can't be faulted. We will definitely stay there again

This was booked as a work accommodation for 1 night and I had an awesome and relaxing stay. The hotel is situated in a small village-like area, so it's not busy, and the backyard is just awesome, the view from my room is just stunning. The room has all the necessities, and I had a comfortable stay. The staff was lovely as well. There's also a grocery shop in the area, so it's a win.

An absolutely top little stop over visit. Henry (front of house) was attentive. The bed and bedding were exceptional, leading to a great nights sleep, not disturbed by the little amount of road noise. The very clean room was a little small for our liking but met our needs perfectly. A good shower with good water pressure and water temperature. Only one negative, we had a clean towel that had a stain on it. Overall, very much value for money. A great stay. Thank you!!!

A fairly traditional hotel but our 'small double' room was spacious, as was the en suite bathroom. Bed was comfortable and the breakfast very tasty. Service was very friendly.

We were badly held up on the M6 on our way home from the Lake District. We decided to pull off and stay somewhere for the night. Holly Trees is a B&B just outside Alsager. The room was basic but had all we needed. Bed was comfortable and the bathroom had a lovely bath. Breakfast was delicious and the owner was friendly and helpful. We stayed here also because they are dog friendly. Very reasonably priced. The pub down was a short walk down the road which was also very reasonably priced. Thank you to the owner for a pleasant stay after an awful journey.

Absolutely brilliant. The best value for money I've had in a British hotel!! A family room (3 adults & 1 child + dog) 4 full English breakfasts ( delicious, what a start to the day) £75!!!!. Also the friendliest owners. All this and it's dog friendly. It's a must.

The host was friendly and welcoming. The room was rather small, but being here on business not an issue. I am sure there are larger rooms available. The view, however was uninspiring. But again, for my purposes not an issue. They have a great way to manage breakfast. You order the night before. On the morning the tables are numbered per room. So it is set up for your choices, they bring your drink and then your food of choice. Breakfasts are very well cooked and of a good size. The hotel is clean and tidy, functional. I would recommend this hotel.
