“We sold our house recently through main and main, the first visit was from Sam who valued the property and did a fantastic job marketing the property. Leila was amazing booking in viewings and always keeping me updated on feedback. The property then sold and Cathy managed the whole sale process I know I probably drove her mad throughout but she always remained professional and kept me updated. The sale went through very easily and I now live in my new property which I love. Thank you to the team at main & main your were all fabulous and I would highly recommend.”

“Always fun! Staff are always amazing. Young people got to canoe, paddle board and donut! They absolutely loved it!”

“The most incredible place I have ever stayed. The lobby smells absolutely gorgeous, it’s so warm and friendly and the staff are so lovely. The suite was crazy. They had left a “Happy Birthday” card and neon sign above the bed as a lovely little touch. Absolutely worth every single penny. Thank you everyone! Amazing central location”

“My daughter started here 2 years ago and is just about to leave and move onto school. During this time she has had the most lovely care by all of the staff. They take part in some wonderful activities. To see her run to the door ( and more recently ) gave me sit outside early as she can’t wait to get in, is a credit to the staff. Thank you for always taking such good care of my daughter and I’m feeling sad to be leaving”

“A superb spot for a relaxed Sunday lunch, where dogs are very much welcomed. The food offering is to a very high standard, whilst not the lowest prices, the cost reflects the quality of the produce. All the staff I encountered were excellent and appeared to be very enthusiastic about what they are doing. Cleanliness couldn't be faulted in the public areas.”

“We have taken the kids a few times and more recently attended a Peppa Pig party to celebrate my son and daughters 3rd birthday. The place it's self is a little small but has a lot to offer we particularly like it because of the sensory room which offers a clam environment for my son. The twins also enjoyed the interactive room and the main soft play area which is great for young children. The food in the cafe is very nice offers both hot and cold food. Great place, great people and would highly recommend”

“Really nice sensory room which my little boy loved and nice cafe. Friendly staff there. Will vist again.”

“Had a party there which was amazing room was really good size lots of room bar staff was really good”

“Today I purchased a bracelet from The Arcade Shopping Centre, Ashton U Lyne. I was greeted cheerfully by a lovely young man. He was polite, professional and extremely helpful. The way he presented the goods helped me decide on my purchase. It wasn’t expensive but I felt it didn’t matter if I was spending a few pounds or a few thousand pound I was still treated like a valued customer. I would just like to say well done with your choice of staff. Good luck to this young man with his future career. The bracelet was worth every penny.”

“This year, we decided to break away from the usual kids' party and have a kayaking party at the lake. We were not disappointed! It was affordable, and everything was included equipped, wetsuits, and instructors. The staff were friendly, and most of all, every single child enjoyed it. Plus, the kids were learning so many skills without even realising it. I would highly recommend it!”

“Lovely park well maintained by a great group of community volunteers. Lots to do and see gear for dog walks too.”

“Our regular watering hole for the last 3 1/2 years, serving a great pint of guiness and are always happy to give extra ice for my better half’s pinot”

“Abbot lodge is such amazing place the staff are absolutely amazing helpful and very supportive”

“The best nursery around! Can’t thank the staff enough for how they looked after my daughter, they go above and beyond for all of the children. My daughter has thrived since attending the village nursery and her confidence has come on leaps and bounds.”

“We came here for an open evening... Ofsted Outstanding school and the staff seem to be doing an amazing job.”

“What a fantastic nursery this is, and recently had a new roof and a makeover, all the staff make the little ones feel so special, oh and the menu is first class”

“Hello, We ordered food for my son's birthday party. The food was delicious, and everyone loved it. It was delivered on time, and the staff were lovely. There was so much food for everyone. I highly recommend them for parties. PS: Chicken Biryani and Chicken lollipop were yummy, but Parotta and chicken curry were the stars of the day. Thanks, Kuttanad Taste, for making our memory more special.”

“Gokulam Groceries has truly become my go-to spot for authentic Indian, Sri Lankan, and Malaysian products! Their selection is impressive, catering to a wide range of tastes and preferences, and they stock many items that are otherwise hard to find in the area. From spices and masalas to specialty rice and fresh vegetables, they carry everything you need for an authentic cooking experience at home. The store is well-organized, making it easy to locate items, and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to help with any queries or recommend products. I was especially pleased with their frozen section, which includes a variety of parathas, dosas, and even desserts—perfect for quick and delicious meals. Pricing is reasonable, and they often have promotions, which is a nice bonus. Whether you're cooking up a Sri Lankan curry, Indian biryani, or Malaysian laksa, Gokulam Groceries has everything to bring out the authentic flavors. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the cuisine of these regions or find specialty items with ease!!!!!!”

“Gemma was our lovely receptionist & bar maid. Friendly & welcoming with a lovely smile to go with her great hospitality. All 7 of us had a great stay. Rooms are extremely clean, breakfast was amazing and enjoyed by all. Thank you !!”

“Came her with my nephew as he's enrolling for another year, car parking plenty of room and any competent driver will not have any issues getting in and out.”

“Fantastic place with a really warm welcome. Great choice of food, which very good, and also a range of beers on draught, including some pretty decent real ales. I'm never get too annoyed if the train at Hartford is cancelled, well at least as long as the Coachman is open!”

“Some belting nights in here when younger. The best time of my life when I lived in Oldham”

“My children have been going to Wild Space (weekly) for a couple of years now and show no signs of wanting to stop, which with a teen to please is testament itself to how great Wild Space Forest School is! Trudy is a fantastic leader and the whole place has a lovely welcoming, friendly vibe as well as a beautiful position conveniently placed in the heart of beautiful Diggle. Throughly recommend.”

“Both my children attend/ed High Legh Preschool Nursery, lovely nursery & amazing garden for the kids to enjoy, such a warm, caring community & team of staff”

“Well done Yazid, you're encouraging Hazel. Hahahahahaha.”

“Lovely lady on reception checked us in yesterday. Very helpful. Even found our booking when had made an error with the surname.”

“We always enjoy the Stage Right productions, they put on a range of different plays and don’t take themselves too seriously. It is a lovely little theatre, well worth a visit.”
