A Perfect Birthday

Michael, Bristol, stayed: September 2014

My wife and I booked Armathwaite Hall to celebrate a milestone birthday. We were delighted with the whole package that started with a complimentary upgrade to stay in the Hartley Tower Suite, complete with rooftop terrace and fantastic view across Bassenthwaite to the Lakeland fells. The restaurant food was excellent and the service was first class. To complete a relaxing weekend we thoroughly enjoyed the spa with its outdoor hot tub and thermal suite. Our thanks to all the friendly staff at the Hall and to Off Peak Luxury for making the recommendation.
