Best rooms
Request a ground-floor cottage at the rear (away from the main road). These have private garden access and minimal passing traffic noise.
Request a room on the upper floors (3-5) for a quieter stay. Lea Lane is a relatively quiet street, but the hotel's proximity to the motorway may still cause some traffic noise. The hotel's floors are concrete, which can transmit noise, so it's best to avoid rooms near the lift or service entrance on lower floors.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid cottages directly fronting the A6 or any major road visible from the address 'Preston' — likely the main thoroughfare. Also avoid rooms near the car park, especially if you see a service entrance or bins.
Avoid rooms on the ground floor, especially those near the service entrance or lift. These rooms may receive noise from the service area and the main entrance.
