‘Venue with a view’ scoops three more top industry gongs

2015 has been an award-winning year for the Gibbon Bridge Hotel and Restaurant with a string of industry gongs - and a recent triple whammy.

Presenting the North West in Bloom Awards to proprietor Janet Simpson and head gardener Robert Lowe, was judge and horticultural expert Bill Blackledge.

“It really is one of the finest hotels in the North West and Janet and the team thoroughly deserve winning North West in Bloom and the gold medal.”

“With the addition of a brand new conservatory built earlier this year - the gardens have needed more work than ever. You could say our garden is an ongoing labour of love.”

North West in Bloom is the voluntary regional organisation that administers the Britain in Bloom competition in Lancashire, Cheshire, Greater Manchester and Merseyside, and is one of the 18 regions that comprise Britain in Bloom. The Gibbon Bridge fought off stiff competition from other prestigious venues across Lancashire, Cheshire and Merseyside to scoop the overall awards the hotel, restaurant and gardens.
