The Bridge Hotel

The Bridge Hotel sits at the very centre of Prestbury village, on the banks of the River Bollin and at the heart of one of Cheshire's most picturesque villages just outside Macclesfield. It is a hotel and restaurant of real historic pedigree: the building is Grade II listed and parts of its fabric date back to the 17th and 18th centuries, having originally been a row of cottages before its life as an inn.

The site has welcomed guests as The Bridge for many decades, and in recent years it has been extensively renovated and refurbished, blending its historic listed interiors with a more contemporary, characterful feel. The result is a hotel with a generous number of bedrooms, a vaulted restaurant and bar, and riverside gardens with outdoor terraces that make the most of the village setting.

Guests come for the combination of comfortable, well-appointed rooms and a kitchen that takes its food seriously, with everything from morning coffee and afternoon tea through to full restaurant dining. The bar and restaurant are popular with both staying guests and local visitors, and the elegant private dining and event spaces make it a favourite for weddings and special occasions in the Prestbury and Macclesfield area.

Typical guests include couples and visitors looking for a characterful country-village base near Macclesfield, business travellers wanting comfortable accommodation with good food on the doorstep, and locals heading out for a meal, a celebration or a relaxed drink by the river. Anyone who appreciates historic surroundings, an attractive village location and attentive hospitality will find plenty to like.
