Amazing building, but inside let it down.

I absolutely can not fault the staff. They were all lovely, attentive and would do anything to help. However, the facilities are dated. Beautiful building, but the room wasn’t the cleanest. There was crumbs on the windowsill, hairs in the bath so I had to wash the bath out before my family could use it after swimming and the bedding kept coming off the bottom of the bed during the night. It was a warm room too, even with the window open and the heating down (201) At breakfast nearly all the plates were dirty with food residue on it and my husband was a bit concerned as he has an allergy to gluten. The swimming pool was cold, the facilities were dated with tiles chipped off in places and on the outside of the hot tub. If this beautiful building had some money spent on it it would make an amazing stay. The view out or room was lovely - see attached. But I wouldn’t rush back, not really worth the price we paid.

The hotel is in an historic building in a very pretty spot, but the conversion was done a long time ago and it's looking tired, but it's clean. The staff are nice too, and it is good value. I've only two negatives, breakfast does not begin until 8am which meant I got a late start to my day, the other niggle was loud music playing in the restaurant. That alone is enough to put me off going back.

A beautiful location. Staff were friendly and helpful, particularly the lady on the front desk when I arrived in the afternoon and a lady serving drinks in the dobby bar. The pool is fab, as was the steam room. The food was nice. On the whole a very relaxing stay, with good staff to help you. The hotel is perhaps a little dated but still perfectly lovely for a relaxing stay in the lakes.

Tired property in need of modernising. Bathroom especially with poor shower pressure and the fixtures and fittings very outdated, with damaged peeling parts. The whole place just needs a refit. Shame because the location is lovely.

Beautiful, charming hotel, pleasantly suprised!

Such a pleasant suprise, a beautiful hotel with clean rooms. Slightly dated but in condition. Gorgeous views and very friendly staff. There is also a lovely spa. Within a good distance from Lake windemere, ambleside and bowness walks (about 30 minutes). This is a beautiful and well priced spot for the south lake district exploring, highly recommend!
