Seventeen acres of Lancashire parkland provide the setting for this beautiful seven hundred year old building. Following the completion of a 6 million GBP refurbishment, the Dunkenhlagh Hotel and Spa is Lancashire's choice hotel.
Driving up the long avenue to the Dunkenhalgh Hotel, coming into view of the turrets and porticoes, you will anticipate a variety of good things. Ahead of you lies the pleasure of staying in a seven hundred year old country house where you can enjoy excellent food and the sense of well being conferred by old-fashioned hospitality.
The hotel boasts every modern facility including a fully equipped Vital health and beauty spa, not to mention a wide choice of conference and banqueting rooms. No mass conformity, no bland anonymity. Virtually each of the rooms has its own distinctive character. The Dunkenhalgh has a selection of rooms that have been individually designed to reflect the centuries old tradition of the Dunkenhalgh. The rooms surrounding the hotel's courtyard are always very popular being a stone's throw from the Vital Leisure Club. Over 40 of the rooms are decorated to a higher standard and are among the largest on offer. They offer a seating area and many have views over the surrounding countryside. For you added comfort the Macdonald Dunkenhalgh Hotel and Spa now has a non smoking policy.

Standards are high in the Cameo Restaurant. They have to be. Our chefs won't serve anything less than prime fresh produce. The restaurant's reputation attracts discerning diners from within a wide radius of the hotel. Cuisine is mainly English and continental, and there are some notable Lancashire dishes, while wines are almost as pleasurable to read about as to drink.
