“From what I've gathered, this inn has a distinct character, blending a heritage feel with updated comforts, and it stands out for its dog-friendly atmosphere, extending even to treats and water bowls. The central location means that attractions like Lake Windermere are within easy reach, while the menu, emphasizing local ingredients, seems like a real draw; in my view, it's a solid base for exploring the area, especially if you're travelling with a four-legged companion.”

solid pub stay
attached pub decent food ample space
the attached pub was convenient. i enjoyed decent food and pints there. the room offered ample space. it was a comfortable stay overall.
the stairs were challenging with luggage. no elevator was available so carrying bags to upper floors was difficult. this made arrival and departure a bit tiring.

mediocre stay, some issues needing attention
bathroom edging duvet hair
The room seemed fine initially. Later i found that the bathroom edging was coming away from the bath panel. I saw toothpaste splashes on the wall. Those were unpleasant. The main problem was the duvet, I found dark hair on it. It really needed more thorough cleaning. i think it affected my overall impression.

charming getaway!
central location high quality friendly staff
I enjoyed the central location. It was close to everything. my room was comfortable and quite clean! breakfast featured high-quality local food, i was charmed. the staff were fabulous. They were friendly and helpful!
I found the rooms were too hot at night, a little discomforting. opening the window wasn't possible because it was stuck. also, the walls seemed thin. I could hear sounds from the rooms nearby, unfortunately.

The breakfast was great with a wide selection of items. The pub downstairs had a very cozy atmosphere and the meals were very good!
The room smelled strongly of disinfectant. The odor lingered. The bathroom was also unpleasant and lacked a hairdryer.

Breakfast had plenty options, I was grateful. The bed was really comfy. Staff was friendly, they even give my dog sausage at breakfast, I was very grateful for the kind service.
Parking not available on site was not good. It added cost to park overnight and I have to carry my bags for a while. I think the room needs a upgrade.
