*STRONG RECOMMENDATION: Do not stay at the De Trafford Arms Pub - the internet is deceiving and we don't want you to have a rotten time!*
The Bridge - 9 minute drive from the reception. This is in Prestbury and is a rather lovely pub. Nice rooms, decent breakfast and in a glorious local village. Not far from where the groom will be staying the night before, so beware the Friday night pub visit.
Alderley Edge Hotel - 7 minute drive away from the reception. Smart, traditional and in Alderley (a lovely local town, famed for being filled with Manchester related footballers). If you raise that you are staying for the Collett/Blakey wedding, you should get a 10 - 15% discount.
Cottons Hotel and Spa - 22 minutes drive away from the reception. A recommendation from Sabrina's Mum and is close to the lovely cobbled town of Knutsford (the prettiest local town of the bunch and is home to the groom's favorite sandwich shop).
Mottram Hall- 13 minute drive away from the reception. A little corporate(ish), but smart hotel. A good option, especially for those travelling up from London, fresh from the boardroom. Rumour has it, the breakfast is rather good,
Wizard Thatch Suites - 6 minute drive from reception but limited availability. This is a small, extremely funky cottage, and could be a very cool place to stay if you can secure it. I'd check out the website link included before renting, because it won't be for everyone! In fact, I'd check out the website anyway, because it's fun to look at.
There will be a shuttle bus service heading to the villages of Alderley Edge and Prestbury at the end of the evening after the reception. These buses will not be stopping anywhere else.
Some taxi companies are a little unreliable (or don't cover the right area), so we recommend the following:
De Wilmslow Taxis - 07507 499602;
Silvertown Taxis - 01625 616666; and
Lynx Taxis - 01625 535559.
