The most satisfying hotel of the whole trip, I like the layout and color of the room very much, the lake view outside the window is beautiful, sitting on the small chair in front of the window of the room, drinking a cup of coffee, looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window, it is very comfortable.

There are not many choices of hotels in the Lake District. I am quite satisfied with this hotel. The surrounding scenery is beautiful. The hotel also helped us arrange the room type we needed. It was very considerate. In short, I was very satisfied

床比較小的,酒店各種房型離的較遠,拖着大箱拉下又拉上,早餐得另點,基礎配置的真是慘淡,連顆🥚都木有。

I took my family on a self-drive trip to the Lake District and chose a small town to stay in after a long time. The accommodation is on a hillside with views of the Lake District. Parking is very convenient, but you need to drive uphill. It should be noted that the front desk check-in is in the restaurant downhill, which is slightly inconvenient.
It takes 5 minutes to walk to the pier and take a boat to Lake Windermere. Recommended

Nice place to stay while travelling in The Lake District. Very clean, warm and welcoming pub with a great fish and chips!

Lovely rooms and welcoming staff
The inn is ideally positioned between Ambleside and Windermere with views of the lake from the restaurant. We had a room without a view but it was quiet and very clean. The room had tea and coffee facilities as well as heating you could adjust yourself if needed. The beds were very comfortable and bathroom spotless. My only issue was the smoke alarm on the ceiling flashed throughout the night meaning the room lit up blue which was very annoying but I’m unsure how you could stop this.
The breakfast was fantastic with a wide variety of choices and served until 10am. Staff are what makes the inn so welcoming as all spoke to us which was lovely. I would recommend the inn to anyone wanting a very comfortable and welcoming place to stay at a great price

Lovely hotel in great location
Modern upto date decor. Very clean and tidy. Delicious breakfast and friendly staff. The only gripe was that I used the 'contact the hotel' on ********** app asking whether we could park the car in the morning before 3pm check in. No reply received. I sent a second message. No reply. I filled in an on line check in, including car registration number but still had to do the same form again at the hotel
