I really don't have any complaints about this hotel, it felt more like a B+B to me, disappointing there was no restaurant as such only bar meals. The room was spacious clean and modern, the breakfast was absolutely fine service was good

This is a small country house hotel and with that comes a lot of positives and charm, however that also means you have to be prepared to accept that it is not a modern hotel and success to some parts of the house is limited by narrow stairs, especially to the top floor were I stayed.

We stayed here to break up a journey to Scotland. We arrived and the staff were friendly and attentive. The rooms are of a high standard and are comfortable. The food available in the hotel is tasty and good value! I can't recommend this enough.

Attended a wedding celebration at this hotel recently and can honestly say the evening buffet was one of the best I have ever had. The location is a little remote but made up for by the glorious views of the fells.

The hotel set in its own grounds commands great views across the fells and is ideally situated a few minutes from Penrith ....a pretty market town with plenty of good pubs and eateries. The M6 is only a few miles away so easy to get to! The staff were very friendly and also helpful... More
