Would not go back

Service was awful. Staff were just plan outright rude. One response during breakfast, in response to when a customer said "excuse me" to the waiter, was "no, Ill speak to you later". I moved a cup at breakfast and the waiter said to me "I've had to replace that cup to you moved". Only one place comes to mind when describing The Bridge In. Fawlty Towers, and the waiter is like Basil.

Overall it was a comfortable room that was generally clean. Bit tired looking, food was just ok. Didn’t think it quite warranted the high score on Hotels.com

Great ‘all-round’ stay Bridge Inn thanks ;)

Great ‘all-round’ stay really. My reason for this trip was to do some decent hiking & go up the famous Scafell Pike. Since I was travelling solo by train & foot it was a nice middle ground between coast & fells/mountains to rest & eat lovely food. Even more so every single member of staff were brilliant that’s it thankyou I will return :)

One hot breakfast cancelled as power cut expected and kitchen staff sent home (even though at time of 'cold' breakfast all was working). Room was in poor order, black mould on window blinds, bathroom state of repairs below standard, furnishings v.tired and floor worryingly 'soft' underfoot. Central heating not working (towels from morning as hung up were damp in evening) and cold at night. Understaffed. (those working were clearly over worked). Not what is expected at £140/night had to pay upfront and no reply to complaint emailed in, (no attendance for checkout), now 10 days passed since stay. Looking for a refund, but no response to emails. It used to be a great place but not now. I did wait for email reply to come before placing this rating however we feel ignored.
