We enjoyed our stay. Friendly host, all needs catered for. Adapted well for covid-19 with breakfast brought to the room.

Pauline United Kingdom

Due to covid, there wasn't a sit down breakfast available but a breakfast in a bag delivered to your door. There was a selection of bacon/sausage sandwiches, fruit, yogurts, cereal bars and tea or coffee. Although breakfast in a bag can't compare to a sit down breakfast, it was tasty and plenty of food to set us up for the day. An email the night before to the owner and breakfast is sorted. The local pub, only a 5 minute walk away was great. They were really friendly and the food was top notch. Location was perfect for our stay for Alton Towers. It was nice looking out of the window in the morning to a view of the countryside and the sheep.

Alan United Kingdom

Warm and hospitable welcome. The hosts were very accommodating with our vegan requests - and the food was fab!

Tabitha United Kingdom

We were very happy with this accommodation and would not hesitate to stay again if we ever return to this part of England.

Cheryl United States of America

It was wonderful. The hostess couldn’t have been more helpful. We really enjoyed our stay there

William United States of America

Host was very welcoming, beautiful location, lovely breakfast

Hollis United Kingdom

Shawgate Farm Guest house was excellent all round. Greeted by one of the owners, shown to our beautiful bedroom, (a family of 5, youngest 13 years), which had full size double bed, full size single and full size bunk beds and still loads of room. Huge on-suite bathroom with lovely fluffy towels for all of us. It was spotless and with the most amazing country views. After a very comfortable nights sleep we all tucked into a great full English breakfast. What a gem of a place and one night was not enough.

Helen United Kingdom

Really lovely place. Nina was very friendly and helpful. The family room was clean and spacious. Really close to Alton Towers. I would definitely stay again. Thank you

Magdalena United Kingdom

Great location comfortable bed lovely friendly helpful owners. Excellent contactless service for covid 19 measures.

Karen United Kingdom

We loved the location, 5 minute walk to a lovely pub Great room size and although breakfast was delivered to our rooms it was fantastic
