Just as old as this geezer is the pub itself. A very quaint sandstone building near the leafy grounds of the local church, inside it has retained tudor-esque features, low ceilings and a cosy looking fireside. But this place can often get a bit rowdy if the local Hollyoaks crew decide to come down for the Monday night quiz.

I remember driving round for almost 40 minutes looking for this pub with my ex because all I could remember was that it was in Childwall near some trees and a church (otherwise known as Childwall Abbey - duh!) Anyway, when I finally get there, I immediately remember why I made the effort. It's the sort of pub you might see in an episode of Midsomer Murders - chintzy and cosy with a smattering of odd characters. The food is standard pub grub, though there is a good selection on the menu and it is of a high standard. In my opinion you haven't had a proper pub meal until you've been here - I just wish they'd turn the heating up in winter!

Okay, place has good service, nice people but bathrooms need updating and cleaner bathtubs. My…read morebathtub had mildew on the tile seams which put me right off. We asked for a room with a window view which they were kind enough to accommodate but the windows look like they haven't been cleaned since the Beatles played live in the Cavern. A little disappointed but hey we're by the seaside and it's tough to keep windows spotless but it would have been nice to actually see out of them for the price we paid to have a room with a view. Over all don't let these little things steer you away. The prices are reasonable the people are super kind, friendly and accommodating the rooms and beds are comfortable and tidy. Just wear your flip flops in the bathtub/shower if your skittish about Mildew. If you have lung and health issues then stay away. There is MILDEW here

Bathrooms are tired looking. Little things like taps for the faucet is located in a weird location that makes it inconvenient to turn on and off. The showers are horrible because there is no door so the water splatters everywhere in the bathroom. It wasn't well designed and needs a total remodel. However, the reason I give it one star isn't the old fixtures and design. It is the horrible service in the restaurant. We went there twice to sit in the bar area to get some snacks and drinks. Both times, no one approached us until I got up to ask how we place an order. There was enough staff but were ignoring us. The second time, I was sitting by myself and no one approached me to take an order although one of the server spent almost 10 minutes chatting with one of the patrons. Clearly she had all the time in the world. I patiently waited staring at all the staff trying to get their attention but they just walked by without even glancing at me. My husband finally joined me and sat down. As soon as he sat down, a server came to take our order. I realized they were ignoring me because I'm Asian and he is white. The staff here is very racist. I wouldn't recommend coming here unless you're a racist and you're okay with this behavior. We are never coming back here.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms, though small, were classily done in basic white and wood with exposed brick. Loved the simplicity of the place. The bathrooms had heated towel racks and mirrors (never have to worry about steaming them up). The down side: I think our room was recently painted, as you could still smell the fumes. Also, as like many hotels, it was a bit loud. You could hear people walking down the hall and the band playing downstairs. You could also smell the kitchen - as they have a wonderful restaurant attached to the hotel. Maybe ask for something other than the first floor.

Knowsley hall is arguably one of the best venues in our humble region that is the northwest…read more Situated inside a measley 2,500 acre privately owned estate, boasting a safari park, inhouse catering, spa and accomodation, you'd be hard pressed to find a more extravagent estate in the region. The venue however is for the majority of time used for special occasions such as weddings and conferences. Although they do hold private events such as tea parties. The grand nature of the Hall obviously dictates its usage for all things opulent. It really is like entering another world as you step inside. One of the many ways of experiencing the delights of Knowsley hall is to book a spa package. Now it isn't exactly cheap; £155 per person, but it does include facial, deep scalp massage, head, neck and shoulder massage with fabulous oils of your choice and use of the hydropool and relaxation area. This is followed by coffee and homemade cakes which will boost your energy and prepare you nicely for what is to come. Post cakes and coffee you will be collected by a personal chauffeur to escort you to Knowsley Hall in style. Here you will enjoy a delicious three course lunch prepared by their fantastic team of Chefs avec une glass of Champagne and wine with your meal in an awe inspiring dining room. After dining you can then walk off some calories in stunning surroundings of the estate grounds, to cap off a memorable experience. All this pampering does come at a cost however as I mentioned and the booking requires a minum of 3 people, so that is forking out a poultry £465 at least. However as I mentioned, yes there are probably cheaper options but then again this particular package does come with the grand background of a historic estate. The only other chance to see the Hall is on 5 occasions a year in August when a £12 ticket gets you a tour of the Hall, so I suggest you get booking.... its round the corner..

It is absolutely stunning, a breath taking location and 5* Gold standard for accommodation. There is a wonderful long drive which takes you to the front door. I could just imagine being in my wedding dress feeling amazing, with my new husband beside me, hand in hand, being chaffeured up the drive in an old car. Oh yes oh yes, I can keep dreaming. If of course you don't have your wedding at Knowsley Hall, you could always have your hen party there and take advantage of the spa packages. But at the prices of the packages, I think it would definitely have to be a rich hen and rich chickens that go along. I will keep dreaming!
