    The location was particularly good there, close to the railway station. Besides, it was near to the Engine Inn at Cark, pubs in South Furness peninsula and Cartmel.

    The location of the hotel was great and pleasant, next to the river. They gave us a triple room with the bathroom, double bed, as for instance. Fantastic and super staff we were amazed with.

    Where was menu?.

    great central spot for exploring charming local attractions

    I had a good stay where I enjoyed a tasty full English breakfast made with local ingredients, and the proximity to Holker Hall and Gardens, just over 1 km away, made for a lovely stroll in the afternoon sunshine.

    cute atmosphere
    local insights
    dog friendly
    noisy room

    Johnathan, the pub landlord, was fantastic, sharing tips about local fishing spots. The surrounding area was great for cycling, and we loved chatting with Monty, the pub dog.

    My wife says that the rooms need some refreshing. A suggestion would be to improve soundproofing for families with children, so we can all sleep soundly.

    Comfortable stay with great atmosphere

    The staff were cute, and my room wasvery comfy and tidy with a lovely view of the garden. Breakfast was delicious with local ingredients, and I appreciated the casual dining atmosphere that allowed for interaction with locals. One thing to improve would be the limited parking space, which can be a challenge during busy times.

    spacious room
    comfortable bed
    clean bathroom
    no bedside lamps
    some noise from the bar

    I stayed in the Triple Room with Garden View. The room was spacious, clean, and very comfy. The bed felt great after a long day, and I loved the little touches like proper milk for my tea. The bathroom was tidy, and I had everything I needed. It was pretty quiet at night, a plus!

    hearty breakfast
    local ingredients
    warm atmosphere
    uncomfortable beds
    noisy environment

    We enjoyed a hearty breakfast made from local ingredients- smashing! The atmosphere throughout was warm and inviting. Plus, meeting Monty, the chief dog, was the cherry on top of our stay. Will definitely be back!

    But let's not sugarcoat it-the beds were absolute bricks and the karaoke kept us up all night! The coffee machine looked like it came from a dusty corner shop. Still managed to have a laugh though!

    would stay there again

    Room was clean and had a great view of the village. It came with a hairdryer, towels, and a tea/coffee maker. The food was really tasty, with generous portions of well-prepared meals. The breakfast was a full English with high-quality ingredients, and the staff were super friendly and helpful.
