Children's entertainment space in Stoke

“Incredible service. I broke down and managed to get my car into the car park at this hotel. Dylan was working the night shift on reception and was so helpful. He was very helpful in getting me any help needed and when I eventually needed to book a room he got this sorted for me very quickly and even accommodated really well for my dog. Then when checking out in the morning, the lady on reception was also incredibly helpful, friendly and accommodating, especially for my dog once again. I just wanted to say thank you so much for being so kind and helpful when I was in a tight spot. The best experience I could have from the loveliest staff.”

“I came here to watch Zootopia 2 with my nephews on December 19th, at the 5 PM showing. The staff were great, helpful, and friendly. The service was equally good as well.”

“Went to the store yesterday with an issue and lady at the till was very polite and helpful she was breath of fresh air. The lady at the till had to go speak to the manager (Anna) with my case and the pair went extra mile and was very pleased with the service I received. Keep up the good work ladies and you are true asset to Argos. Its a shame I can not remember the ladies name at payment counter. Visited the store about 5pm if it helps.”

“Excellent hub for all things around autism. The whole place is purpose designed to be a safe space for people with autism to feel comfortable and get help with what they need. Exceptionally professional and knowledgeable staff. Very supportive if you're new and have questions (drop in or appointments available). Help with all aspects of the journey with clubs, learning and fun. Well integrated with other services in Cheshire East. Wonderful cafe for lunch and snacks. Helpful with special diets. A great community doing what it says on the label.”

“My wife and I wanted to do something a little different to the usual for her birthday, and this was absolutely perfect! We had a lovely morning at Doodle Alley, the staff we're warm and friendly and incredibly kind and patient with us! The hardest part of the whole thing was picking what to paint! Once we'd chosen a bowl each (there are over 150 items to choose from, ranging in price from just a few pounds up to around the £50 mark) we sat at our table, with our little baby boy happy and cheery in the provided high chair watching on. There's a great choice of paint colours to choose from and lots of paintbrushes and tools you can use to decorate your item. We had a coffee and a cold drink whilst making our designs, inspired by the wonderful examples that are dotted all around the studio (which are also available to buy in most cases!) Not being local, we arranged for our items to be posted out to us (there is an additional charge for postage, though EVERYTHING else needed to decorate, glaze and fire your pottery is included in the price) They have arrived today and we are very pleased with them. The glaze is gorgeous and the bowls feel great. Whilst neither of us are particularly gifted with arty stuff, we're both really happy with how our bowls turned out. We will DEFINITELY be back again. It was such a great, relaxing experience and such a fun time. This will definitely become a family favourite activity and we plan to bring some friends along next time too! 5 stars simply isn't enough, this was honestly such a perfect activity, in a beautiful studio, with amazing staff. Give it a go!”

“Wow! What an awesome place this is. We went to the British touring car championship weekend, was absolutely brilliant. Very well organised, excellent toilet facilities which were kept clean. We camped for the weekend which you couldn’t fault at all. Would highly recommend”

“A fantastic, regularly updated menu of monster sandwiches and other good stuff, all served by friendly staff in a relaxed atmosphere. The Supergreek salad is top banana. Even the tea is a cut above the rest. My favourite spot for dinner in Stoke-on-Trent.”

“What a fab place, lovely visit on Sunday 1st day of the season & what a lovely welcome, the guide was excellent & very informative. The house is beautifully kept & well worth a visit, we also had a lovely lunch each had a pannini & a homemade scone delicious, then did the recommend walk around the grounds just over a mile so nice & easy.”

“From looking round the venue to our wedding day, the whole experience with Heaton House Farm has been effortless. The venue are so organised and responsive, it takes a lot of stress out of the process of organising your wedding. Our wedding coordinator Anya was amazing and the day ran so smoothly, we did not have to stress or think about anything. We could just enjoy what was the best day of our lives. The venue itself is beautiful with different options of where to hold your ceremony to suit each couple's vision of their wedding day. The venue is spotless and all the staff are so helpful and go above and beyond to ensure you have the best day possible. Me and the bridal party loved getting ready in the pamper room, it just made the day extra special to have that time there and means you are not stressed on the morning of your big day. The bridal suite is simply stunning, with views of the countryside in the sunshine. You must have a photograph in front of the giant tree it is simply spectacular! There are no hidden extra costs, so you can keep track of your budget. Guests commented how gorgeous and well organised the day was. There never felt like there were any lulls in the day. Everyone had an amazing time. We could not recommend the venue enough and we would like to thank all the staff and especially Anya for ensuring we had the best day of our lives!”

“Myself, my wife and my in-laws came to a cottage near Blythe Bridge for our wedding anniversary. We had looked at a few places to go out for walks (ourselves and the dogs), and we decided on Downs Bank first. We're so pleased we did. There is ample parking for around 40 cars. We did a few easy walks as both of my in laws are getting on in years. But, there are a lot more challenging walks for those that like to get the heart rate up. Benches around the bank are a little hard to find but there are sufficient for just taking a brief moment near the stream. We were here in January and we couldn't have asked for better weather, and being early in the year, the cold and lack of children had made this a beautiful place to stroll around with very few people/kids or dogs to break the relative tranquility of a lovely place. Once you have done the walk a couple of times the chance of a different type of photograph have gone, but then you could start to get creative about differing points of view and shots to try. Overall I would highly recommend Downs Bank for all ages and abilities.”

“As a wedding photographer, I absolutely love working at Foxtail Barns. It's a venue that has totally perfected weddings and the day runs so smoothly. The team is excellent and on hand to answer any questions, ensuring the couple is always having a great time. It's also such a jaw-droopingly stunning venue. For the couples portraits, the gardens have the most beautiful bridges and views which adds an elegance and charm to the photos. The venue uses a golf buggy to get around which is a huge relief for heeled feet but also a big time saver. This means the couple doesn't feel rushed during their photo session and can get back to their guests sooner. The walled garden is beautiful, especially at nighttime when the lights switch on. It's the perfect place to make the most of off-camera flash and create some wow moment. Both the ceremony and reception rooms are flooded with natural light and it's so lovely to have a carefully considered space for each part of the day. If you're looking for the perfect venue, then look no further. You've found it. Highly recommend.”

“Our daughter had her 6th birthday party here a couple of weeks ago and it was brilliant. Staff were amazing, was really well facilitated, and there was always something for the kids to do. The other parents were also impressed. Absolute bargain as well - I would have paid more for what we got. Thank you!”

“I have recently moved to the area from London and was convinced I would miss the London theatre scene. How wrong can you be? I have now enjoyed 4 productions/events at my very local Daneside theatre. I am told that the productions are amateur but i can’t believe they are as the acting has been spellbinding. “Little Shop of Horrors” was witty, had incredible scenery and props, and was the sweetest production I’ve seen ( I’ve seen it twice in the West end) “One man two guvnors” had me in laughing my socks off with the most incredible actors and then, I paid only £6 for a cinema ticket (the theatre is sometimes a cinema too) There was also a Pink Floyd tribute band with an amazing light show and phenomenal guitarist and also a fun filled Meatloaf musical. I didn’t want to write this because if the word gets out about how good this place is I may not get tickets to future shows ( everything I have attended has been a sellout) but I’m really writing this for the wonderful actors who have given me so much joy over the past few months. Thankyou.”

“Lovely hotel in a beautiful quiet surroundings, only 10 minutes drive from Alton Towers. Rooms are lovely, breakfast in the morning is delicious, freshly cooked to order. We had a lovely stay there and can recommend this place to anyone :)”

“Outstanding wonky Tudor moated Manor house. Built between about 1504 to 1610, it has a fascinating history including being requisitioned in 1643 by Parliamentarians during the English Civil War which plunged the Moreton family owners in to crippling debt. Beautiful house and gardens with a good cafe and shop. Well worth a visit.”

“Beautifully kept gardens with a free roam walking trail. Deceptive as it looks quite a small area but there are so many paths and different areas to explore. Many different themed areas too to keep the interest. The dahlia walk is superb. Highly recommended.”

“A magnificent venue decorated beautifully for Christmas. The food and service was fantastic”

“Great day out for the kids. Had an activity teaching then to look and learn for a prize. Great attention to detail at the museum lots to see. Staff are nice and most of all. FREE 2 hours to kill with the kids”

“Fun production of Cinderella for the family at an affordable price.”

“I hadn't been to The Gatehouse since I was a child and had absolutely no memories of what it was like inside. It's fantastic!!!! It's only a small theatre, but it's lovely and open. The bar areas are really nice too. The Staff are brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble and they all just really friendly and helpful. I need to start booking more tickets!!!”

“I took my 14 month old and she absolutely loved it, staff are lovely and very welcoming Gets busy on school holidays and weekends”

“Great place for a walk in nature, beautiful and peaceful, plenty of benches to rest on along the way and an excellent kids trail. Will definitely visit again when in the area.”

“Watched live stream of the ballet Romeo and Juliet from Royal Ballet and Opera House. Fabulous! A great venue staffed by very helpful friendly volunteers . There is a bar and ice creams were sold at the first of three intervals. Our tickets cost a very reasonable £16.50. Have seen other ballets at this venue. I strongly recommend.”

“This is a tremendous venue in the middle of Cheshire farmland. It may sound quaint but the set up is very professional. You are able to simply book your seats for performances or you can hire tables in the restaurant for your own indoor picnic. We saw James Pearson and friends at a Jazz evening, and he is the resident at Ronnie Scott's in London. So that can't be bad. The place is celebrating its 50th anniversary and so it's longevity speaks volumes for its popularity and viability.”

“Loved this place. Service was fantastic and the food was great. The team are super friendly too. I popped in for an early lunch on Tuesday while cycling the “Way of the Roses” to Bridlington. I made it in 2 days as planned. Thank you, for helping me refuel. Hope to see you all again soon. Steve”

“We recently hired the hall for a birthday party, it was lovely and clean, Sue made sure everything was organised ready for when we got there. On the day both Sue and Karen helped to make sure we had everything that we needed for the party to run smoothly. Thank you so much, we will definitely look at hiring the hall again for a party.”

“Brilliant community centre offering great services”

“Hired the venue for my little girls first birthday party. Really spacious room, with good quality tables and chairs accessible. We ran slightly over our booked time whilst cleaning away but the lady Ross who we booked through was lovely and didn’t rush us out at all. Will definitely be using again for future parties.”
