Moor Hall Recognised by 50 Boutique Hotels

We are delighted to share that Moor Hall has been featured in 50 Boutique Hotels, a collection celebrating some of the UK's most distinctive and exceptional places to stay.

Set within five acres of beautiful grounds in Aughton, Lancashire, Moor Hall combines three-MICHELIN-starred dining with luxurious accommodation, offering guests an opportunity to escape the everyday and enjoy a truly memorable experience.

A Unique Place to Stay

Originally a sixteenth-century manor house, Moor Hall has been thoughtfully restored and developed into a destination restaurant with rooms, where contemporary design sits comfortably alongside the character and history of the estate.

Our 14 individually designed bedrooms are located across the Main House, Garden Rooms and Gate House, each offering a peaceful retreat with carefully considered interiors, luxurious furnishings and views of the surrounding gardens and countryside.

Whether visiting for a special occasion or simply taking time away, an overnight stay allows guests to experience Moor Hall at a more leisurely pace.

An Exceptional Dining Experience

At the heart of Moor Hall is Chef Patron Mark Birchall's three-MICHELIN-starred restaurant, where our Provenance Menu celebrates the finest seasonal ingredients, many grown within our own kitchen gardens or sourced from carefully selected British suppliers.

Our menus evolve with the seasons, reflecting the close relationship between the kitchen, our growers and the natural surroundings of the estate.

Guests can also explore our sister restaurant, The Barn, which holds one MICHELIN Star and offers a more relaxed approach to dining, while maintaining the same commitment to exceptional produce and hospitality.

Lancashire is a land of abundance. Our gardens teem with fruit and vegetables and flowers and herbs. In season here you might eat peas straight out of the pod, so fresh all they need is a touch of salt and nasturtium oil. What we don’t grow we seek out from the amazing produce tended and nurtured by local farmers and artisans.

On site we’re also busy with charcuterie, bread-making and our own micro-dairy. There’s always something interesting to explore or a discovery to be made. And we like to share what we find.
