A little further south than you wished for, but the Shroppie Fly in Audlem, Cheshire, could be the one for you, if you are coming down the M6.Turn off for Nantwich. Session in the bar, mainly singing, some tunes, pretty trad old fashioned pub in very old fashioned canal village(canal outside pub front door).Not sure if they have accommodation, if not the other two pubs are the Lord Combermere and the Bridge.
Let us know if you're coming, and I'll turn out to say hello.
