Back soon
Excellent stay , everything from check in to check out was great. All staff were so helpful, the room was very good, ambiance was easy going and welcoming.
So much so we are already booked for another visit.
We will be back
An enjoyable stay with lovely staff and we would return in the future. However, there are some comments regarding our room that I would wish to mention. The majority of rooms had a balcony or outside space with a lake and mountain view. Our room had a view of the car park. The room was a good size. It was obviously meant for disabled people with two red cords in the bathroom and one over the bed, and additional handles and bar supports. There was a locked adjoining room. From this adjoining room we could here the occupant speaking quite clearly. He was on his phone until after midnight when we were trying to sleep, and again we could hear almost every word. Poor sound proofing !!
Tired but beautiful location
The hotel is situated on the side of Ullswater. The grounds are beautiful but the restaurant and rooms are very old fashioned and in need of updating. The restaurant lacks atmosphere because the food was good. Rooms are large but again need updating. The staff were very attentive and friendly. I would recommend if you don t mind traditional elegance.
