AN EXCITING fresh chapter is starting for a historic Denshaw hotel as its new owners plan to make it into the area’s premier destination.
Former 18th-century farmhouse Clough Manor boasts glorious views across Saddleworth Moor and is ideal for wedding parties, business brunches, weekend stays or Sunday lunch.
And it has been refreshed from top to bottom by long-term business partners Phil Wareing and Tony Leach who took over last month.
The pair believe their high quality approach will make the hotel a destination venue for miles around for diners, wedding or corporate guests and tourists.
Phil, has run a photography business for the past 10 years, said: “We’re here to make Clough Manor the venue it was always meant to be.
“There is a fantastic synergy – we’ve got the venue, we’ve got the views and we’ve got a dedicated team of 28 fully-trained, friendly staff to make your stay exceptional.”
A mouth-watering menu has been designed by head chef Matt Turton and offers everything from light bites to three-course evening meals in the restaurant.
Matt said: “Our suppliers are all local where possible and the menu changes every few months to ensure the most in-season ingredients are served.
“I want diners to have a memorable experience. We’ve had so many compliments about the quality of the beef we use for Sunday lunch, which shows the standard we’re aiming for.”
Attention to detail is just as high upstairs where the hotel offers 25 en-suite bedrooms – including four-poster, double or twin options – all with Sky TV and free wifi.
The hotel is also a great spot for businesses as it has facilities suitable for conferences, meetings or networking events.
And with its rolling views, fine catering and comfortable rooms, it offers the perfect package for weddings of up to 200 people.
Tony has a background in venue dressing and hospitality and also established ‘The Event Box’ wedding directory to help create a stress-free day for brides and grooms.
He said: “We have about 70 weddings booked in for 2016 already and we’re already taking bookings for the year after and we want to build on that.”
