This is a wonderfully smart, well-kept hotel in a terrific location in the centre of a picturesque Lake District village. The walks and access to Ullswater are very convenient, and the restaurant area has outside seating on the riverbank. The room was actually in an adjacent outbuilding next door, but it was stylish, clean and comfortable. What I liked most about the Crown Inn is how well we were looked-after. We had to arrive at 1.30am due to unforeseen circumstances, yet the night porter was kind and helpful. Because of our late arrival, we slept in and almost missed breakfast but they knocked for us to remind us. I liked the fact that instead of the usual buffet, we had a table reserved and we ordered off a menu. I'm very grateful for the care taken during our stay, and our only regret is that we were there for only one night. For what we paid, it was a bargain. We've decided to come back to Pooley Bridge in the future and book a room at the Crown Inn!
