Overall a great stay and we'll go again given the opportunity, even if the shower was a bit tricky. Really friendly staff, evening dinner and breakfast delicious with big portions, even a small portion of the Cumbrian kept us going the whole day.

The Inn was great. Nice peaceful location with lots of character. My only negative was that although WiFi was included it did not work at all.

Easy and convenient parking. Friendly and welcoming staff. Excellent restaurant with great options for the whole family. The room was clean but hot as we happened to be there on a rare hot day. We had dinner there and the breakfast included with our stay was great. Many options for breakfast and were all popular with our family. Thank you.

Issues with wi-fi and shower

Excellent food and room was comfortable but wi-fi in the room was awful and the shower appeared to have only two Settings - ice cold or cold - even turned up To the hottest setting the water was cold.

6/10 Good

Need to book restaurant in advance

Stayed one night on business On check in was confronted with my pet hate ie being told restaurant is busy and there was a 2.5 hour wait for a table. It’s great it’s busy and clearly attracting local trade, however, they need to contact customers on booking a room to advise to book a table in advance. Bar tables were also being reserved for food, hence limited space to sit and have a drink. Was shown to a small lounge which doubled as reception so quite a lot of through traffic Food when it arrived was good quality bar food and excellent value for money/ I stayed in a standard room and it was clean and functional.
Sue, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Overall, for lone traveller; an unsafe experience

Hotel was clean. This hotel would benefit from having a lone traveller policy. I lone travel for work, stayed at the hotel on one other occasion, but will not be back due to lack of basic safety knowledge from staff. On check in two men checked in before me and remained in reception. My key was given room number side up, reception then said room number aloud. Bedrooms are opposite the pub, across the car park. My room was on ground floor between both men room, in a corner. Lighting in corridor did not work, making entering the room a vulnerable experience. Door to room did not have peep hole nor inside lock or chain. When paying for my meal barmaid asked for my room number. I explained I did not have a tab open. She said she had to have the room number. Bar was full of men, I had to state I was not giving out my room number in a bar full of men I did not know. That silenced the whole area. Wrote my room number on a pad. No explanation as to why a room number was needed in a pub that caters for people who are not staying overnight. Overall, for a lone woman traveller, an unsafe experience

Nice, clean and quiet property. The best part was the breakfast. We were surprised to see that everything was made to order and not a typically buffet morning breakfast. And all of it tasted really good.
