Lovely hotel. Very clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Meals were tasty and hot, with a good choice on the menu for the evening meal and with very reasonable prices. It's only about a 15mins walk from the station.

Ravensglass stayover

Beautiful location, overlooking the sea off Ravensglass. Professional, friendly team and great bar and restaurant in a pretty village where it has little competition. Interesting walk to local Roman Baths & the miniature railway. Close to Hardknott Roman Fort which was an interesting site to walk around, though probably one for the fitter and more energetic.

A Motorcycle Tour

This was an overnight stay, the staff were very friendly and efficient, good food in the restaurant during the evening and breakfast the next morning. Comfortable surroundings to enjoy a beer and rest after a long day's riding. We would definitely stay there again
