The only good thing about our meal was the lovely wait staff. Paid £103 for 4 beef Sunday roasts, portion of chips and 4 soft drinks. The meat tasted like it was out of a packet, and the gravy was jelly like which would prove this theory. The veg was a mix of undercooked and cold. And it took nearly 40 minutes to arrive despite being first in at 12pm and the first ones ordering. Can understand now why it was so quiet, just gutted that we wasted so much money on inedible rubbish!

The drinks reasonably priced, the food seriously over priced. I had the steak and Ale pie, wasn't really a pie, some nice pieces of beef but just a square of hard pastry on top and a portion of over cooked chips. A few pence short of £20. Wife had chilly con carne with rice, no flavour really and very watery. I believe this was £ 17. VERY DISAPPOINTED. I'm not sure why this place has so many good reviews regarding food. The pricing suggests your going to be blown away with it but total rip off.

£18 for a ‘Special pheasant burger’ tasted horrible, and roast dinner with warmed up roast potatos in the microwave, burnt Yorkshire pudding and undercooked veg. Cost twenty pounds. Overpriced horrible food. Needless to say that we won’t be returning

Lovely stay here, all staff very friendly and helpful. Good quality breakfast served hot and was delicious. Evening meal very well presented. . Would recommend the fish and chips and also homemade steak pie. Very comfortable rooms, stayed in rooms 7 and 8 with a balcony catching the afternoon sun. Walk in showers in both rooms, tea and coffee making facilities and a comfy double bed. Around a 10 minute drive to Lake Windermere. Would highly recommend.

Called here late afternoon for Sunday lunch. Had been before many years ago and was very good. The welcome and service could have been better. The beef was tough and tasteless, the rest of it was average. Overpriced for what it was and won’t be going again.
