A superb little pub with rooms. The rooms are small but very nice having being recently refurbished. Everything is new and all the little touches are there. The food in the pub is also great and not too expensive. The portions are huge!! We got there quite late (9pm) on a Thursday night but the pub serves food until 9.30pm so we managed to eat and have a few drinks even arriving that late. The breakfast the next day was also superb. The hotel is a great base for exploring the lakes, being only 5 miles to Bowness (Windermere centre) by the ferry which is £3.50 per car. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

we booked this hotel thinking it was a small quaint 17th century family run hotel. However we never came into contact with the owners, it was run by very polite european personnel. The room was very clean and has clearly been refurbished. We were provided with a car park permit & had our car park fee refunded, this was much appreciated. The breakfast was very good. Overall for the amount we paid on late rooms we were happy. The public bar is dingy and has a very annoying slot machine, so having a quiet drink was not so enjoyable.
