Lovely place to stay

What a great find. The perfect stop off on our way to the Highlands. The room (room 5) was incredibly spacious and clean. The service was friendly and genuine and the food was well cooked and great value. The breakfast in particular was clearly cooked to order and piping hot. Definitely recommend this place.

A real gem, on the eastern edge of the Lakes

What a gem of a place - amazing rooms (I stayed in room 1), comfy beds with great in room amenities and a very pleasant shower. The team are all friendly, which combined with a reasonable selection of ales, a nice ambience and good pub food, leads to a great place to stay. Will be staying again to break my long journies!

Leak in the ceiling

The building was beautiful and the food was amazing. What really let the entire experience down was the leak in our rooms ceiling. From around midnight till 4am there was a steady stream of water leaking from the beams and down the walls in our room. Sadly, the leak was directly above where our dogs bed was, and by the time we realised that the water we heard dripping was inside the room, his bed was sodden. Reported it to staff who didn’t really know how to respond, only saying that it’s happened before. For £100 a night, I wouldn’t expect water to be leaking into our room.

Great little country gem.

A lovely place in a beautiful area, ideally situated for a number of walks. The hotel is really nice and the room was large and well appointed. Steph and her team are second to none and she is super helpful and nothing ever seems too much trouble. I would highly recommend this pub to stay, we’re sad to leave.
