Lovely hotel on the banks of the lake. Spa including indoor pool, sauna & steam room along with changing facilities. Staff were incredibly helpful and kind. Only downsides were breakfast was small portions, the veggie sausage was amazing but the veggie bacon not so much. There were many rooms that had been refurbished but ours wasn’t one of them, so the decor was a little dated & the fabric sofa needed a good clean. Nice touches in terms of information about the local area and bottles of water at the bedside. Tea, coffee & hot chocolate making facilities in the room and room service available with a fee per delivery. Thanks for having us!

We were a little disappointed by the Lakeside Hotel. We felt that there was a lack of warmth and friendliness from some of the staff, and no real interest in ensuring we had a good stay. The initial check in was quite cold and business-like, and throughout our stay many staff dealt with us in quite a disinterested way. There was a fire alarm which woke us up one night. Having rushed outside, we weren't given any explanation or reassurance, and were just told it was ok to come back in. When we checked out, we werent asked how our stay was, we were just told there were no charges. There were some exceptions, but overall throughout our stay we felt the service lacked warmth. We also weren't impressed by the food. At breakfast on one day, our food was both overcooked and cold by the time it reached us, which was about 30 minutes after we'd put in our orders. In fairness it was much better the next day when we went at a quieter time, but I would expect the quality of the food to be consistent (particularly given the cost) even if it takes a bit longer when it's busy. The positive was the bed which was really comfy. It's a shame as the hotel is in a beautiful locaton, but I feel that there is a waste of the potential for this to be a place we'd want to return to.

No housekeeping service done despite 4 follow ups and two visits to front desk. No water replenishment, towels, tea or milk despite booking and paying for a suite. No one picked up housekeeping phone. The hotel manager was distinguished by his absence. Complete apathy.
