Very Good

Really friendly and welcoming place to stay and explore the Lake District. Stayed in a small but cosy and very comfortable room. Great food and nice pub/bar downstairs. Plenty of parking on site.
Nice cosy room and convenient stop off close to M6

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Everything they offered was fine - however there was no hairdryer making the shower irrelevant, and no bedside glasses for night-time drinks although the tea/coffee cups could be repurposed. A few issues at check-in but they were dealt with well by the staff. So fine, but a few things could be improved.
