6/10 Good

We have stayed here on several occasions and really enjoyed it. However, this visit the room was extremely cold and we had to ask for a blanket- it helped but was still cold. The WiFi signal was appalling- could not get a decent connection which hasn’t happened in previous visits. The breakfast was lovely and the staff very pleasant. After this visit we may not go again

8/10 Very good

Overall a very cosy traditional Lakeland hotel. Extremely clean rooms and very pleasant, helpful staff. Good choice at breakfast. Nice leisure facilities, pool can become overcrowded during school holidays...perhaps a booking system would improve access? Dining room feels a little austere on the evening perhaps needs some soft furnishings, a bit of tlc.

8/10 Very good

It was very lovely to stay in the dog-friendly hotel in a quiet location. The room was relatively small, and during the night, we suddenly heard noises from the drains. They were pretty noisy, and the room was dog-friendly. Staff members were helpful and friendly, but some did not say hello or good morning and did not even look at guests. The food was delicious, and we enjoyed dinner and breakfast. We saw the lovely garden from the restaurant. The swimming pool and gym were not big, but they were lovely. Massages were fully booked when we were there. I should’ve booked earlier. Overall, we had a great time there.

The room was really nice, clean and spacious, the bed was also bigger than a standard double bed, bathroom was nice and spacious with a nice shower and a bathtub, the breakfast selection was nice however I wouldn’t recommend the restaurant of the hotel as we had dinner there one night that was terrible, the worst meal I’ve had in years, we ordered a pork belly for starter that was more fat that pork meat and completely tasteless and the pheasant dish that was absolutely disgusting, dry and tasteless, honestly the worst meal we have had in years which was very disappointing
