I arrived at the hotel, and the location was perfect for exploring the local area, especially since we needed to break up a long journey. The rooms were cozy and had such a great view from the window, but I did feel a bit unnerved by how close it was to the window. The service was friendly, although the communication about the modems under the room was a bit puzzling at times. The dining was good but could use a little improvement, even though the sandwiches were fresh and tasty. The facilities were nice overall, and I enjoyed the Tweed covered seats. Price-wise, it was reasonable for what we got.

The hotel was excellent, absolutely spotless throughout, and it's lovely. Just down the road, though above the bar area - a little noisy, but then it is a pub. The service was extremely friendly and helpful, and the brilliant breakfast was awesome. The location was perfect to break up a long journey and to visit the Lakes District, just off the motorway. The dining was delicious, especially considering there were lots of walkers staying. A few sweet products were available as well.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room was clean and comfy, and the staff were genuinely friendly. However, the dining experience could have been better with more breakfast options. The location was convenient, but the Wi-Fi had an extra charge.

The hotel is ideal for breaking up a long journey and exploring the local area. The rooms exceeded my expectations with a nice surprise of a bath and a comfortable bed, but lacked a bedside lamp. The service was friendly but seemed a bit under pressure at times, and the dining experience was good but could use a little improvement. The location was great for visiting the Lakes District and traveling around the area.

Rooms

The rooms were quiet, and despite the noise from the electrified railway nearby, they were comfortable and exceeded my expectations with a bath, which was not clear on the booking. However, the absence of a bedside lamp was a small inconvenience.
Service

The staff was very friendly but appeared a bit under pressure due to the limited number of employees. There were some moments of disorganization, but they tried their best to assist.

The dining experience offered a serve-yourself option with cereal and fruit juice, but there is room for slight improvement in terms of variety and service. The organic products were a nice touch.

The hotel provided good advice about nearby attractions, offering spacious, clean, and nicely furnished rooms at good value. Despite being quiet, noise from the electrified railway could be heard throughout the night. The front side rooms had seats outside but were sometimes noisy due to local activity until closing time.

Rooms

The room was spacious, clean, and simply but nicely furnished. Good value for the price, though noise from the electrified railway could be heard throughout the night. The front side room had seats right outside the front door, but noise from locals until closing time was a drawback.

The dining experience was good with serve-yourself cereal and fruit juice, and waiter-served full English. The breakfast was of good quality, hot, and tasty. However, it finished early on a Sunday, limiting the dining options.
