The menu was good, but not exceptional. The staff were very helpful, but we did not realise that the hotel was going to be full of dogs. The were seven tables in the dining area and six had dogs at them. The carpets smelled of stale dog in all their form. The carpets were stained especially in the bedroom that we occupied.

I was very disappointed with my stay at this hotel. Even worse, the bathtub was completely clogged. When I first entered the bathroom, it hadn’t even been cleaned properly and was full of soap scum. I had to call someone to clean it, and surprisingly, there was not even a single word of apology. After the so-called cleaning, the bathtub was still not usable. Overall, the hotel feels old and poorly maintained. Honestly, they really need a full renovation. The breakfast was not good - the taste is below expectations. Furthermore, just have a look at the photo taken, the pillow towel had holes in it…

Cute little place near lake

Cute little place. A busy restaurant is attached and parking is pretty tight. You have to wait until the parking lot opens up at the end of the night to move your car into it. Otherwise some street parking available. We were on the third floor so had to hit the maze of stairs to get to the top but it wasn't too bad. Sits right in town which is really cute. Eateries are open pretty late if you look around.

Such a lovely place to rest our head for the evening. Walking distance to the train station where we met our tour guide for the tour of Hilltop (Beatrix Potter’s house). The breakfast was absolutely delish! Staff was so friendly! Our room was spacious and so very clean. Also, our bed was quite comfortable. My daughter and I loved this place.

The property was lovely. Wasn’t keen on check in, no clear indication on where to go / what to do and was standing around puzzled with no staff in sight for a brief time. Bed and pillows was very uncomfy. Black marks on pillow case and dog biscuits on bedroom floor.

Great breakfast, comfy rooms, friendly staff

The staff were really friendly during our stay, the breakfast was fantastic and service was great. We were so disappointed to discover on the last day that there was another side to the breakfast menu which we hadn't turned over! We will have to return and sample the breakfast pancakes! :) Thanks for a great, comfortable and friendly stay.
