The location was great for exploring the Wirral, we were only staying a short time but I would have enjoyed using this hotel as a base to explore the area further. We enjoyed a walk into the main village of Thornton Haugh.
The hotel itself was clean, the room comfortable with a large bed and good bathroom with a large bath and nice toiletries. We enjoyed the added bonus of having a smart television in the room. We also noted the coffee machine although we didn't use it.
The staff were faultlessly kind, helpful, attentive and welcoming. They were the highlight of the hotel. I really appreciated their attention to dietary requirements and allergies during dinner and breakfast.
Our package included dinner allowance, breakfast and access to the spa which stayed open late. We went to the spa after dinner on the first evening and enjoyed trying out the spa facilities and the different thermal experiences on offer. We didn't pay for any additional treatments or use the gym.
The food and drinks at the terrace and Lawns were high quality, the Lawns was especially well presented and clearly prided their use of excellent seasonal produce.
Brook Hall Hotel is an elegant hotel with jacuzzi baths, luxury rooms and spacious restaurant and event venues offering a fantastic location to explore Chester and Liverpool.
A charming hotel steeped in history, set in the historical town of Port Sunlight, within easy reach of Liverpool and Chester, and just 5 minutes from the M53.

If you are interested in the history of the village, pop into the Red Lion where they sometimes have great live music and old photos of Parkgate in the back room. If you're lucky the owner will give you a potted history of the village that he clearly loves.

The property was well maintained, rooms were spacious - we had a four-poster bed. Bathroom very nice, good shower.
Parkgate is a seaside venue without the sea (due to silting) but maintains the seaside atmosphere. Clearly popular with locals. Two ice cream shops, pubs and the inn.
Lovely place to walk along the foreshore and watch the birds.

We have family on the Wirral and wanted somewhere to stay so we could spend some quality time with them. Parkgate was just perfect. It is such an interesting place, full of history, but so convenient to reach other parts of Cheshire, Wirral, Merseyside and Flintshire. It is a very busy little town by day, but also quite relaxing to watch the birds over the river Dee marches. Great for Fish and Chips, Ice Cream, good restaurants and interesting walks.

Parkgate, and the Wirral in general is a hidden gem, clearly known to the locals but not on the typical tourists trail. It should be. Lots to see including the amazing Sunlight Village, walking tracks and beautiful scenery. Only a short drive from Chester, Llangollen, Liverpool with its docks and lively Manchester. Fly into Manchester airport, instead of crowded Heathrow and it is all on your doorstep.
Great cottage, in a perfect location for visiting the Wirral while enjoying the seaside atmosphere of Parkgate. Checkin was super easy and the accommodation was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Bottle of Rose on arrival was much appreciated :) We brought our 10yr old Collie and she loved the big public fields just up the road and walking along the Wirral Way which is a great nature trail along an old disused railway line.
Beautiful home, spotlessly clean (understatement of the century!), decor is so clean, fresh and tastefully done and very in keeping with Parkgate. The layout for 5 worked really well. The bathroom is downstairs but didn’t have any impact for us at all. The log burner was amazing… such a treat!
One bed room only perfect for couples, central for all of wirral and North Wales if you want to use your car ( all with in 30-40 mins drive)
Or just stay in Parkgate excellent food to eat in or take away all within walking distance and don't forget the ice-cream.
Loved it
The property is perfectly placed for all the amenities at Parkgate and it was immaculately prepared for our arrival with a bottle of wine too! The owners were lovely and kept us up to date with any check-in info leading up to the stay. We would highly recommend a stay here!
Lovely cottage in the village of Parkgate, second time staying at this property and would stay again. Stones throw from the restaurants, cafes and pubs and waterfront. Great communication from Gary prior to arrival and post. All in all a great little place.
Location very good - apart from picturesque Parkgate on the doorstep, the house is a good base for easy access to the rest of Wirral and Chester, or indeed North Wales. Inside it was spotless and has the bonus of a small courtyard garden with seating.
Great hotel - very smartly decorated, with comfortable rooms, friendly staff and a great bar/restaurant. Location was also excellent for exploring The Wirral and adequate parking at the rear of the property.
