About the Business
The Wild Boar Hotel, formerly known as Beeston Towers, was built in 1886 for John Naylor, a timber merchant from Warrington.
The site chosen for their luxury country house was between Beeston Auction Centre and Bunbury, at the top of the hill above their work sheds, from which could be seen the remains of Beeston Castle.
The Naylor Brothers, John and Robert, are noteworthy for completing the first recorded walk from Land's End to John O'Groats in 1871, taking nine weeks to complete the journey. The original building has been surrounded with additional extensions over the years, but the splendour of the past still remains. The centre section was the first to be erected and consisted of a number of rooms with a small Ballroom on the second floor looking out over the Cheshire plain.
