Overall a very cosy traditional Lakeland hotel. Extremely clean rooms and very pleasant, helpful staff. Good choice at breakfast. Nice leisure facilities, pool can become overcrowded during school holidays...perhaps a booking system would improve access? Dining room feels a little austere on the evening perhaps needs some soft furnishings, a bit of tlc.

We have stayed here on several occasions and really enjoyed it. However, this visit the room was extremely cold and we had to ask for a blanket- it helped but was still cold. The WiFi signal was appalling- could not get a decent connection which hasn’t happened in previous visits. The breakfast was lovely and the staff very pleasant. After this visit we may not go again
