The Cornerstones is a small, family owned guesthouse of nine bed rooms.

We pride ourselves with offering high standards in service, with comfortable and spacious accommodation in a warm and friendly atmosphere

The Cornerstones is a large Victorian building elegantly presented both inside and out, with great care taken to retaining the character of its age.

Built in 1872 by Sir William Cunliff Brooks, Lord of the Manor and son of Samuel Brooks. He became MP for Altrincham and Sale (1886-92). His many benefactions to Sale include the fountain on Ashton Lane, and Brooks's Institute on Carrington Lane Renovation...

When Anthony and Dorothy purchased the building it was in somewhat of a derelict state. The previous owners had emigrated and left the house to slowly fall by the wayside, becoming home to a roost of pigeons nesting on two floors.
However they spotted it's potential and after alot of hard work and perseverance, have managed to restore this wonderful house, back to it's original glory.

Each of the 9 bedrooms having been individually decorated to a very high standard.

Creating a comfortable tranquil and homely atmosphere.

Divine Decor -
Each room has been individually decorated with great care and attention to detail. We believe the diversity of our rooms, offers guests a new experience with every visit.

The Living Room... is a quite haven of peace in the heart of the hotel. The marble fireplace and antique furniture creates a refreshingly elegant, town house atmosphere.

The perfect reading room for catching up with the days newspapers, meeting up with colleges or party members

Dorothy & Tony assure you of a warm welcome and a fabulous stay. We hope to see you very soon.
