My stay in Maryport.

My accommodation was clean and comfortable, the staff were friendly and my breakfast was delicious. It was quite noisy in the evening as situated close to the town centre, but quiet after 12:30.

A beautiful hotel walking distance to the little township. The staff are incredibly helpful and polite. The food is amazing and good value for money. It is certainly worthwhile visiting this cute little town when on a road trip of the north.

Pleasant overnight stay

Generally pleasant overnight stay. Good value for money! Room was up a large number of stairs, generally clean and warm with all expected facilities ie ensuite toilet and shower, coffee making, wardrobe and towels. Bed was comfortable, but unfortunately there were marks on the bedspread. Internet access variable. Private parking limited. Food choices generally good but perhaps a little limited for vegetarians. Issue with undercooked potatoes was quickly and politely managed! Enjoyable evening meal and generous vegetarian breakfast. Staff were polite and helpful.
