This was a great stay for our family. Two adults and 3 kids (two teens and a preteen) fit comfortably in one of the larger rooms. The rooms were simple, but clean and a great base for exploring the Lake District. Staff was very friendly and Breakfast was wonderful!

Easy and convenient parking. Friendly and welcoming staff. Excellent restaurant with great options for the whole family. The room was clean but hot as we happened to be there on a rare hot day. We had dinner there and the breakfast included with our stay was great. Many options for breakfast and were all popular with our family. Thank you.

Williams family stay

We stayed in a large family room with lots a space for a family of 5. The room was large and clean bathroom was good size and clean kids all had there own beds my only issue was our bed was a little on the hard side for me but everyone’s preferences are different so I wouldn’t necessarily mark it down on this. Breakfast in the morning was lovely and I would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in the area. We will be back again for sure.

No hot water for shower. When staff was informed, they said they'll fix it, although this only benefit the next guest. No offer of hot shower elsewhere or reduction to bill etc. Disapointing.

Convenient if you're in the area

Pleasant place to stay and located in a quiet area. The rooms are immaculately clean, warm and have everything you need. The staff are friendly and the breakfast is nice and fresh with ample choice. We have stayed twice at this location, although we prefered the seperate annex, rather than the main building. We were in room 8 on our last visit. It is above the dining room, so was rather noisy on an evening and during breakfast time. The room itself was lovely, but soundproofing could be better.

Great for leisure, no Wi-Fi in room for business

Excellent food, excellent room and very good location for my needs BUT no wifi in room. After multiple restarts of the kit and three conversations in two days I was left with the clear impression that the walls in room 1 (courtyard suite) are too thick for the Wi-Fi to reach… this is the only negative in a lovely room and hotel, but meant I couldn’t work and have calls in the office of the room as planned, and had to sit in the reception / lobby instead.

Overall, for lone traveller; an unsafe experience

Hotel was clean. This hotel would benefit from having a lone traveller policy. I lone travel for work, stayed at the hotel on one other occasion, but will not be back due to lack of basic safety knowledge from staff. On check in two men checked in before me and remained in reception. My key was given room number side up, reception then said room number aloud. Bedrooms are opposite the pub, across the car park. My room was on ground floor between both men room, in a corner. Lighting in corridor did not work, making entering the room a vulnerable experience. Door to room did not have peep hole nor inside lock or chain. When paying for my meal barmaid asked for my room number. I explained I did not have a tab open. She said she had to have the room number. Bar was full of men, I had to state I was not giving out my room number in a bar full of men I did not know. That silenced the whole area. Wrote my room number on a pad. No explanation as to why a room number was needed in a pub that caters for people who are not staying overnight. Overall, for a lone woman traveller, an unsafe experience

I'd consider this hotel for last-minute bookings or budget-friendly options, but be aware that the rooms may not match the pictures. Unfortunately, our room had stained bed sheets, noticeable cobwebs, and visible signs of spiders in various corners. My daughter was frightened by the spiders and refused to sleep in her bed. I had to remove them myself, which was unpleasant. Additionally, room service isn't available 24/7, closing around 10 PM, so assistance isn't an option late at night. It is 20 somthing minutes drive by car from lake district bational park so if you have children you would consider taking a closer accomodation, I booked two nights but checked out after the first night.

Nice, clean and quiet property. The best part was the breakfast. We were surprised to see that everything was made to order and not a typically buffet morning breakfast. And all of it tasted really good.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It is an Inn/pub with dirty carpets and sticky tables in the dinning area. The food is nothing to write home about and although generous it is tasteless. The rooms are cramped with views to the car park. The room cleaning was good with a clean toilet but the carpets and other surfaces require attention. Not in the best part of town and not somewhere you want to explore. We had some money off since last minute, it really is not worth the full price.
