“Excellent value for money”

Brookside Guest House

10 Aug 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

Having traveled over 30,000 miles a year, throughout the U.K. in the course of my work, I have never before stayed at a place that offered such value for money. The Hosts, John & Tess, could not of done more to make my stay so enjoyable, in fact nothing was too much trouble for them. They clearly took a genuine interest in the welfare & satisfaction of their guests, without being intrusive.

The attention to detail throughout the accommodation was of a very high standard; quite quite outstanding in fact, & the breakfast provided was excellent in both its presentation & provision.

This is a place that I would certainly return to & have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone. Well done John & Tess, your star rating is well deserved & I wish you all the very best for your business in the future.

We came to ask for a room spontaneously - and stayed spontaneously! They take much care of their house, the rooms and of course of the guests. The rooms are very nice furnished and arranged. We enjoyed a lot!

“Just Wonderful!”

Brookside Guest House

1/1 found this review helpful

We stayed at this fantastic gem of a place for 2 nights either side of a friends wedding in the area on the 4th and 6th of July. As I was 8 months pregnant we wanted to make the trip more of a break and their modern website caught our eye and did not dissapoint.
The welcome was great, a fresh pot of tea was just what was needed!
We stayed in the ground floor room which has it's own en suite and seating area and was a wonderful room that would not have been out of place in a modern hotel.
It seemed that every detail had been well thought out to make this far above what you would expect from a B & B, DVDs to borrow a fridge on the first floor to get drinks/snacks and wonderful breakfasts.
John and Tess the owners were wonderful hosts and we felt well looked after.
We cannot recomend this place enough!!

We stayed at the Brookside Guesthouse and it exceeded our expectations. The owners John and Tess were very friendly. The service they provided along with the breakfast was superb. The accommodation was exceptional, modern, very clean and comfortable. We would not hesitate in recommending or returning to this B&B.

“Chappels of Congleton”

Brookside Guest House

28 Jul 2007

We visited the Brookside Guest House on Monday 23rd July until Friday 27th July.
Because of the dreadful weather we had delayed our visit by one day, but were met with nothing but understanding from our hosts Tess and John.
On arrival we were brought coffee / tea and fresh muffins which was appreciated.
The room decor was excellent with furnishings of the very highest quality, extremely clean and was kept that way for the whole of our visit.

The bed was very comfortable with crisp linen sheets.

Our hosts were always willing to help and advise on the locality, even to the extent of loaning us their binoculars because we had forgotten ours !

During one of our conversations we mentioned we had been warm during the night - the next day a fan appeared in our room without our asking. A very nice touch and much appreciated. Also very much appreciated was the complimentary bottles of wine which appeared in our room while we were out for the day !

The food is of a high quality and always beautifully presented with lots of choice, i.e., fruit juices / fresh fruit / cereals and a fantastic choice of main breakfast.

There is a lovely garden at the rear with plenty of seating areas and water features - very relaxing after sightseeing all day.

We would heartily recommend the Brookside to anyone.
