Quiet & peaceful stay

Wonderful stay, room, restaurant, food excepional. Must be almost 50 years since last here, trip down memory lane, did not fail to bring back memories of my younger days, but will return again soon. Views of the area so fabulous, peaceful countryside.
Marjorie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A very welcome overnight stop on our way to the Lake District - not too far from the M6 but in a beautiful part of the country. The room was very comfortable and the hotel was charming - a peaceful village location with lovely views of the surrounding countryside. We enjoyed a great evening meal and the breakfast was very good. Definitely would return if heading to that area again.

6/10 Good

Some things great, some not so great

Great food and beautiful setting. Staff were a bit cold at times and less than attentive, but nothing that warrants an outright complaint. Room was sweltering in the night (stayed in August), and we had no way of asking for a fan. Might be worth asking for one as you check in.

Ribble Valley retreat

Fabulous weekend away. Lovely room (with a garden shared with another room), food and location. Fantastic views in the village and over to Pendle Hill. We would love to return.

Beautiful Stay

Wow what an amazing place to stay. We booked the family room which was perfect with a separate room for the teen and a stunning bathroom. The breakfasts were delicious and we decided to dine there on the Friday evening which was stunning. All the staff know hospitality and the service was exceptional with everyone so friendly and happy to help. All this in the beautiful village of Downham, what’s not to love. We’ll be back!

Room 5 paint peeling off the wall and noise from extractor fan. Got moved to room 7 which was nice but black mould on net curtain.

8/10 Very good

Lovely stay - recommended

Lovely hotel/lodgings. Beautiful bathroom! Nice and warm room. Cosy fire at the bar which was nice and cosy . Tastefully decorated. The food looked gorgeous as it was taken past us going to the restaurant, and we will eat here next time. ***Big shout out to Phoebe, our breakfast waitress. The breakfast chef didn't show up and until the replacement chef came, she was run off her feet supplying us all with toast and tea and coffee etc. She was fabulous and super friendly *** Downside -:the bar shut at 10 because they were quiet, which we sort of understood, but would have been nice to come back to the hotel and gafeva few more drinks or a nightcap Overall I would definitely recommend and we will be back

8/10 Very good

Could be better

Upon arrival, the pub look magnificent in the afternoon sunshine but the welcome, after my long trip, was non existent. I was pointed in the direction of my room that was located in different building. The room was nicely appointed but the exterior wall in the bathroom had a serious fault in the plasterwork which demonstrated a lack of care or attention to detail. The damp issue had obviously been around for a long time! Dinner was ok but with a little finesse it could have been much better. The standard of service was best described as disinterested. Breakfast was very good. The setting of the Asseton Arms is delightful and I would possibly stay again

Beautiful views from the room over the surrounding countryside. Very good food in the restaurant with gluten free options available or easy to arrange. Clean and spacious room and bath room with good rain shower. Perfect place to stay for walking the surrounding hills.
