Situated on the banks of the River Ribble, The Macdonald Tickled Trout offers elegant bedrooms, some with waterside views; with free parking and a first-class restaurant. We also operate a female-travellers policy, which includes well-lit designated parking spaces located at the front of the hotel. Centrally located and close to all major transport links, it's the perfect base for business travellers and those looking to explore the North West's many attractions.
The Tickled Trout has airy, refurbished bedrooms, most with great views of the calm river. Each room has a private bathroom, tea and coffee making facilities, and a trouser press. High-speed internet access is also available.
The restaurant serves regional and international cuisine using fresh, organic ingredients. The bar offers beverages and fine wines, and there is also a cosy lounge, all of which serve food throughout the day, making them ideal for informal meetings. 24-hour room service is also available.
Business travellers can also make use of the hotel's many meeting rooms, with a range of catering options, equipment and prices available.
The Macdonald Tickled Trout is just 30 minutes from the beautiful Yorkshire Dales or the Lake District. The centre of Preston and the local university are minutes away, and Blackpool, Liverpool and Manchester can all be reached both quickly and directly.
