Lake District hills view
On way back from top of Scotland this was a lovely stop over, amazing views of the hills. Staff fantastic, food excellent good bar selection and a fab lounge with log burner for the guests. Rooms are perfect for what you need. Only minor gripe is the mattress on the bed was a bit tired and could do with changing. Overall fab place. Defo use again

6/10 Good

Lovely breakfast and good location. Upon arrival at 10pm Sunday night we were given a room that was very dated, the bathroom looked nothing like the pictures, the room smelt damp and hair was left in the bedside table and the bed was like laying on wood it was so uncomfortable instantly it put a downer on our stay as we drove 5 and a half hours and just wasn’t expecting this especially as it’s not a cheap night stay. This was disappointing I did try to ring reception but the telephone in the bedroom wasn’t working. I went down to reception straight away and complained and never got an apology and the gentleman came across very rude which also ruined the experience. The next morning he must of realised and he was very apologetic but it would have been nice for him to do this on the night of question and we wasn’t offered anything for the inconvenience of it all. The next morning we had changed rooms and was apologised too, we couldn’t fault the new room it was just sad that we didn’t have a nice arrival after a very long drive. We stayed for 3 nights.
