We visited after a recommendation and heard about the location. It did not disappoint. We plan to go back in the nicer weather and explore as it is set in a beautiful area, so much so got on to googling houses for sale nearby.. We can all but dream. Ate downstairs (food was amazing) and relaxed for drinks until closing. The pub had such a warm and welcoming feeling and everyone was polite. Had a comfortable night's sleep and no issues come to mind. Breakfast in the morning was also faultless. Have already repaid the favour of a friend and continued to recommend. Only a 9 because no-ones perfect

First time staying at a Hampton hotel and was really pleased. Location was great right next to the motorway junction, plenty of parking available. Check in was quick and efficient and staff were really friendly. Room was really nice, clean, fresh with a great view out over a small lake behind the hotel. Room was very quiet, so has great sound insulation as it is right on the motorway. Bathroom was great, and the rainfall shower was lovely. A brilliant buffet breakfast in the morning…….all in all a great stay.

Darwen is my home town so it would have been nice to stay a little longer in order to catch up with a few more friends and family.
This is the first time we have stayed at The Whitehall but it won’t be the last. We were made to feel so welcome and we thoroughly enjoyed the short time we spent there.

The breakfasts were a farce , no supervision of staff , a manager was no where to be seen. They ran out of several basics and the food on the buffet was stewed and dried up. No bowls and the waitress thought muesli was the same as granola.
Fawty towers springs to mind!!!!

A good traditional hotel. Helpful friendly staff. Good breakfasts. Our standard room with bathroom was absolutely fine, really clean and with all facilities, but a little small, should have booked a bigger room. Nice bar and lounge area. Lovely terrace and gardens, had it been summer.

The pub itself is fantastic - the road to it is not.
The pub itself is fantastic - the road to it is not. Careful driving is needed and a small car a good thing. Unusually though, it has a train station right below it (request stops) so you wouldn't need to travel by car. Dogs are very well catered for.

Staying at the strawberry duck is the ideal base to explore this region of the Pennines
There are some fantastic walks around the several resivoirs in the area
We used the train station at entwistle to travel to whalley and other villages to sample the great beers on offer
There are some fantastic artisans in this trendy area
The truly delightful former country home of The Hindle Family now converted into a splendid hotel Everything here was first class and the charming Greek general manager has an exceptional team of professionals this truly is a little jewel of a hotel which I consider myself most fortunate to have discovered and please don’t get me started on the fabulous breakfasts available !
We,ve stayed at the property before for a family reunion so we new it would be good for another family get together
the property is stocked with everything you could need should you wish to cook and entertain Lovely view of Darwen Tower
and Blackpool
Our host even gifted us with a bottle of wine and eggs which was an added bonus
Although quiet and isolated it is within easy reach of Bolton and Darwen. The railway station right outside could be useful for travel further afield without the car. The walks around the reservoir are very pleasant. The breakfast is very good as is the restaurant. All round a very pleasant place to stay.
Stayed for a couple of nights for work. Room and hotel grounds were excellent, with a large free car park and very grandiose entrance. Make sure you don't turn into the Care Home on the way up the drive to the Hotel, as the signage is a bit confusing at first.
The breakfast was very good - my husband was particularly impressed with it. The hotel grounds were pleasant and spacious. The staff were very friendly and pleasant, particularly the Polish receptionist.
I was amazed at how beautiful the place was - keep it up! The staff kept things very pleasant, guided me around the hotel, and got me settled immediately into the room. Breakfast was awesome and fast!
Lovely property with stunning views and brilliantly furnished with everything you could need for a stay on Darwen. Jude and Peter were fantastic hosts and we'd love to stay again when in the area.
