We had a friend visiting us from Alaska and we wanted to show her the Lake District on our way to Scotland. I did a search for a place to stay and when I saw this hotel and the price I could not believe it. Then when we turned into the driveway we all went "WOW". We could not believe... more

We stayed one night in one of the older rooms complete with four poster bed. As we arrived after 9:30pm the Restaurant was closed but the bar was still serving a fairly extensive menu that went down very well. Our bedroom was huge corner room complete with creaky floor and extensive views of the grounds on two sides. Despite the... more

I have stayed in this hotel on many occasions through work (15+ trips) The hotel is located on one the main roads on the edge of the town, there a wall around the hotel grounds and if you a driving too fast you could easily miss the turn in to the drive way. There is ample parking. I have stayed... more

We were not sure what to expect when we went inside .... but were pleasantly... more

This is the only way that I can describe this hotel! From the web site the hotel looked stunning and idylic but as soon as you walk through the doors it is clear that this is not the case. It needs a good old spring clean, there is dirt and dust everywhere, the rooms require a serious update, the pipes... more

A beautiful red sandstone Lutyens building with a sympathetic modern addition in the same stone. Pleasant modern room and large bathroom in the new wing, clean with all the amenities one would expect. We were staying over New Years Eve and so fully expected festivities and some noise in the early hours. We were not expecting the room windows to... more
