Pleasant

Actually i was expecting a 5 star hotel. It's a very good clean house with maximum 3 or 4 rooms with NO attach bath room. Kindly note that it's food was very good quality but not like buffet available in any 4 or 5 star hotel. Staff is very cooperative and delicate. Location is quite far. I paid taxi of 80 Pound from Oxenholmes station. If you do not have your own or rented car then its quite off place. View from this location is marvellous but you need car. However, if you have money, Taxi is one phone call away with wait of 20-30 minutes. This Hotel on Lake and very good lake view. You can walk to lake or Water river.

Excellent hotel which vastly exceeded our expectations

The attention to detail in every aspect of our stay, from the individual Victoria sponge with a pot of tea, to the decanter of Sherry in the room, was much appreciated. The hotel is both spacious and homely, with a warm welcome from both the staff and the fire in (one of two) lounges. The breakfast deserves a special mention, it really was special! We will definitely return.

There is nothing that needed improving, every aspect of our stay was perfect.

Beautiful, restful weekend away! Highly recommend. Thank you Richard, Ed, Angela & Emily!!!

We were immediately welcomed and given a tour of the beautiful building, including the garden and the two lounges. Everywhere was kept toasty thanks to the fire places, and there were lots of books and board games available to pass the time. Our room was spacious, clean and kept supplied with lush hot chocolate, tea, etc. We had a fantastic view of the lake too. The staff were absolutely wonderful and couldn't be more helpful. Had a lovely chat with Ed one day, then Angela the next! The food was fantastic, I would highly recommend grabbing at least one dinner there, and definitely go down for breakfast every day. Wonderful selection, and exceedingly tasty. Incredibly cooked by the owner and solo chef, Richard!

Nothing! The country roads are a bit trecherous at nights, and we came down on the tightest roads on the first night, but Emily was quick to recommend us the alternate, safer, route. Be careful on your GPS!
