We chose this hotel as we wanted a quiet night away not too far from home and away from the busy tourist areas and it didn’t disappoint. It’s hard to judge a place on a quiet weeknight in November but we had a lovely stay. The room was lovely and clean with everything we needed. Dinner was great even if very quiet but to be expected this time of the year. Breakfast was freshly cooked and a large range of things in the buffet. Plenty of fresh coffee offered at regular intervals. All the staff we met were so nice and friendly and professional. As I have worked in hotels and most recently as a housekeeper I notice any little things that are often overlooked but I was fully relaxed and everywhere was clean and tidy and there was nothing that would put me off from going there again.

Reception staff great, evening restaurant staff very courteous and attentive, morning breakfast staff could do with an attitude reset - very abrasive and guests seemed to be an inconvenience, especially when disrupting whatever was holding their attention on their mobiles (the server with the bleach blonde hair in particular). Room very comfortable.

A fabulous place to stay whilst exploring the lakes. Lovely breakfast with glorious views. Leisure and gym small and needing a little bit of a refresh but a nice option to have. Views are stunning, food good and bar good but a little pricey, but given Windermere is about 20 minutes away and taxis are pricey, it seemed a sensible option to stay put. Overall a great place.
