We really enjoyed our 3 nights here, staff was lovely, convenient location, breakfast was excellent, nice having waters, teas, coffee, coca & cookies in the room.
For a driving trip, really liked the location. Good parking, easy access to best roads for exploring the Lake District.
Bathroom has a deep soaker tub/shower: lovely on a hiking trip!
Excellent cook to order breakfast in a nice sunny room and comfortable lounge for bar drinks.
The quibbles: bed small for a couple (N Am expect a Queen or King), the comforter also small for a couple: if one turned over, we had to readjust it so both were still covered.
Top floor roos have a sloping wall so my 6'3" husband had to sleep on the far side of that (not our usual habit.)
On checking in & seeing the room asked if there were any alternatives but told nothing else available (odd since the hotel didn't seem busy.)
Pity because so much else was excellent but ultimately a good night's sleep is always the #1 thing about a hotel!
