It had a old world charm, food was decent. there were some issues with the bathroom and the mattress wasn’t Too comfortable. Some of the staff was friendly and attentive but the service could be more warm and welcoming.

Very peaceful and relaxing...

Pros: Cleanliness
Cons: The swimming pool, spa are not that close so the website was a bit misleading here.
Location: Lovely spot to explore Windermere, Ullswater or any of the lakes.
Very peaceful and relaxing stay with helpful staff and excellent service. Would definitely stay again.
