    I would suggest for the guests that may have disabilities difficulties that the toilet seat could be made from the sturdy ones that we have experience before. The seat in our room was already loose and when my husband sat down it moved and pinched him bringing blood. Not something anyone needs from a little break away he is a veteran so his mobility isn’t great. It’s a beautiful inn but that’s the difference from staying again. Although the staff were amazing and they did offer us another room… however; he was sore for a few days and that made the stay unpleasant for him. Just something the owners may think about moving forward for other guest not to suffer the same fate.

    The inn itself is amazing it’s very clean and the beds are very comfortable.

    Very clean with easy access. Food is excellent, my wife had the sirloin steak, whilst I had the batterd cod, both meals were great and the breakfast did not disappoint also. A great stopover location with close access to M6 or for visiting central Lancashire.

    The Bluebird Inn is a lovely hotel with a good restaurant, comfortable rooms and friendly staff.

    The cask beer in the bar was not very well kept, but this of course may have been a one off problem. The area around the hotel was a bit nondescript with a huge BAe Systems factory is across the road.

    Lovely hotel between Preston & Blackburn. Easy to reach on A59 but set back from the road so traffic noise wasn't an issue. Perfect location to visit Ribchester and the Forest of Bowland, and also convenient for anyone having business in Blackburn, Preston or at BAe Systems. Room was clean and comfortable, public areas well looked after and the restaurant served excellent meals. The grounds around the hotel were well looked after. The staff were friendly and helpful, and one was able to explain the connection between the hotel's name and the factory across the road which had built the engine for Donald Campbell's Bluebird boat. All in all, a very pleasant stay at the Bluebird Inn.

    The gentleman who greeted us for breakfast service was quite rude. Directly telling us the restaurant doesn’t serve non hotel guests. Despite repeatedly telling we are guest, our names,our room number, upon leaving he asked again for our card rooms not knowing if we were leaving or going back to our bedrooms! Very strange and left a slight bitter after taste on a great stay.

    We had a lovely overnight stay as a family on our road trip from Scotland. Exactly what we needed - easy access from the motorway, good family room, and decent food in the restaurant.
