THE Martin Inn is one of the oldest Inns in the West Lancs. area and one of its more interesting points is that part of the building stands in Merseyside as well...!

The pub and hotel is set in some of the most romantic countryside in Merseyside, criss-crossed by canals, cycle paths, horse riding tracks and nature trails and also with some of the UK's most important golf courses around 15 minutes drive or about 2 minutes by air.

Yes, the Inn does have its own helicopter landing area! Not only that but did you know that the pub is set in one of the many areas said to be the heart of King Arthur's Excalibur land?

This historic wet land is equally important today because it holds many nature reserves. Two are world renowned. The most famous is Martin Mere, which is one of the most important reserves in Europe for wild fowl and waders. Mere Sands Wood Nature Reserve, whilst not so well known as its neighbour, also plays a vital role and is close by.
