This isn't really a hotel as such - it's a pub with rooms. To be fair to the management I don't believe that they profess to be anything other than this and all of the staff we met were helpful enough. Our group had 5 rooms and it was a case of pick a set of keys and that's your... More

Walked out after one night. Where do i start? Check-in in bar, corridor and stairs to room looked like there had either been a riot or a raid, holes in doors ripped wood chip wallpaper (thought this had gone in the 70s!) The room dated, dirty, even bed linen looked grubby. Bathroom hadn't seen bleach or any cleaning fluid since... More

Went for a meal at the Stags Head on what must have been one of the hottest days of the year therefore was able to sit outside. Husband and son had the Cumberland sausage, only negative was the awful tinned or frozen carrots. I had the lasagne which came with salad, chips and garlic bread. My son's partner had the... More

We had a couple of hours to spare in Bowness and wanted some food so we picked this pub and have to say it was very good value for money. We picked meals from the specials menu, steak and kidney pudding and chips for me and fish and chips for my better half. This included a pot of tea and... More

We can echo what JuneManchester reports, we probably have the same room. We are here for 4 nights, Mon-Thurs (one more to go). We booked in advance with a travel agent and should have done our own research here on TA first. 'Every' night is very noisy in the street with people partying into the wee hours. The bed is... More
