The location was brilliant for visiting in and around Grasmere, a few minutes walk away. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. The room was cosy and had everything needed. Had evening meal and breakfast - both fantastic. Would highly recommend.

We very much enjoyed our two night stay that included an amazing hike that started right out front of the Inn. Our room was lovely but a tad noisey as the Inn is right on the road. It quiets down at night. We had realfast and dinner on site and all were delicious! A cozy spot very easily reached without a car.

A Great Place To Stay.

This is a very welcoming hotel. Ample on site parking and super dog friendly. Everyone of the staff delivered a high standard of customer service. Food is excellent. We stayed in a standard sized room which was very clean and comfortable. I will return but next time I will go for a larger room as I found the standard sized room bathroom a bit small for my large size frame ( I’m over six feet tall. ).
