"The friendliest staff I have ever encountered from those in reception and restaurant. No attitude just so friendly there to help. The most wonderful staff I have ever encountered "
"Staff were lovely and we felt really looked after during our stay. A particular highlight was the food - lamb, chicken and steak were all excellent. "
"Fantastic location, staff were exceptional - especially given they were dealing with a very large group booking. Free Spa / Pool area is good and great after a long walk in the fells. Some areas of the hotel need a little TLC for the 4* rating."

"Nice, clean and quiet property. The best part was the breakfast. We were surprised to see that everything was made to order and not a typically buffet morning breakfast. And all of it tasted really good. "
"Lovely hotel with stunning views. The big plus is the food - breakfast was excellent and dinner both nights was really enjoyable. It’s in a great location to explore the northern part of the Lakes. Some parts of the hotel could do with a bit of TLC. Staff are really good, would definitely recommend."
"If I could I would give this place more stars than what is allowed. One of my favorite places that we stayed at while in the UK. I can not say enough how much we enjoyed our stay. How welcoming and wonderful the staff is. Can’t thank them enough for the warm hospitality. "
"I recently stayed at this hotel in the Lake District with my family for five nights. Our main goal was to climb Scafell Pike, and this hotel stood out as the nearest option within my price range. Initially, I didn’t have very high expectations (despite the good reviews), but those quickly changed once we arrived.
The location was peaceful and quiet, the car park was large and well-planned, and the room exceeded my expectations—it was far more spacious than any hotel room I’ve stayed in before. The staff were warm, humble, and genuinely welcoming, which added to the experience.
Breakfast was included in the price and was a real highlight. Instead of a standard buffet, you order from a menu (available online), and the food is freshly prepared for you. There were plenty of options, including vegetarian and vegan choices, which I thought was excellent.
The bathroom was also very spacious and clean. The only small drawbacks were that the sofa bed was only a single (despite there being enough room for a double), and the showerhead over the bathtub was fixed.
The location was very convenient—just a 25-minute drive to Scafell Pike and about 40 minutes to the west coast, where towns like Whitehaven and Workington offer plenty of restaurants (including McDonald’s, KFC, and Domino’s for budget options), as well as major supermarkets like Morrisons, ASDA, and Tesco.
Overall, I really enjoyed my stay here and would happily return. Highly recommended."
"Beautiful building, great staff and amazing food. Just about to go under refurb with exciting pictures and designs of proposed updating and improvements are scattered around the hotel. Best wishes with that 👍"
