Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Liked the service and interaction with all staff very helpful. Liked the room the size, quality, and the facilities provided. Did not like the distance from the main hotel to the room which was in the annex heavy rain made the the walk unpleasant. I wrongly thought the annex was adjacent to the hotel. Liked the quality of the breakfast cooked or cold top class, the menu for dinner was very ordinary and and was not very inspiring and left a feeling of could do better.e.g sirloin steaks were cooked as requested but were tough and poor flavour. Liked the swimming pool and facilities top class very clean and a high spot of the holiday.

The hotel is old & a bit tired in places, but comfortable. Beds are comfy. Our room on the first floor was well ventilated, but the attic rooms are less so. A car is required unless you’re a good walker as it’s 1.5 miles from Bowness.
