Great hotel rooms were large and everything we needed. Super value for money. The staff were amazing considering it was Easter and how busy they were, still managed to smile and make time for us. Would highly recommend to stay there as more than reasonable and near the Lakes and The Dales .. will definitely return… thank you guys

A very pleasant stay.

Very pleasant staff, from arrival check in to departure this stay was first class. The hotel is quaint, traditional and provides a very pleasant atmosphere. Food selection was good and also value for money. I will certainly use the hotel again in the future and would not hesitate to recommend it to family or friends.

Stayed on numerous occasions as is just a lovely quiet getaway. Do need your own transport if you want to get about and see towns and villages around the area. Staff amazing as always and make you feel right at home. Hotel is dated if a little shabby but this is the charm and character of the place. Surrounding grounds are perfect for just relaxing and watching the red squirrels and a variety of birds. The breakfast is great and evening meal offers plenty of choice.
