Wonderful.

We love this hotel. The staff can’t do enough for you. The setting of the hotel is wonderful with many walks and the red squirrel sanctuary. The hotel is spotlessly clean. We will definitely go again.
Hazel, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very good service, room comfortable with a lovely Lounge and Bar with beautiful fittings and decor. An amazing lift and great ambience in the Dining Room. A delicious dinner and breakfast. A stunning after dinner walk in picturesque surroundings. Could do with an advertising board nearer the M6 as you are such a hidden gem!
William, 1-night trip

Very comfortable and spacious rooms. Good, large portion meals. Beautiful river and red squirrels. Some hiccups with staff and systems, needs a good manager!

Really nice stay, beautiful surroundings, really friendly staff, rooms dated but comfortable, great shower, fresh towels every day and the breakfast was excellent. Would definitely stay again.
James, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

the hotel was slightly dated, we were not ware that having a dog meant we we were not in the main hotel and we had to then dine separately meaning we were the only diners in that area so a little disappointing
Chris, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel rooms were large and everything we needed. Super value for money. The staff were amazing considering it was Easter and how busy they were, still managed to smile and make time for us. Would highly recommend to stay there as more than reasonable and near the Lakes and The Dales .. will definitely return… thank you guys
