The most satisfying hotel of the whole trip, I like the layout and color of the room very much, the lake view outside the window is beautiful, sitting on the small chair in front of the window of the room, drinking a cup of coffee, looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window, it is very comfortable.

I took my family on a self-drive trip to the Lake District and chose a small town to stay in after a long time. The accommodation is on a hillside with views of the Lake District. Parking is very convenient, but you need to drive uphill. It should be noted that the front desk check-in is in the restaurant downhill, which is slightly inconvenient. It takes 5 minutes to walk to the pier and take a boat to Lake Windermere. Recommended

There are not many choices of hotels in the Lake District. I am quite satisfied with this hotel. The surrounding scenery is beautiful. The hotel also helped us arrange the room type we needed. It was very considerate. In short, I was very satisfied

床比較小的,酒店各種房型離的較遠,拖着大箱拉下又拉上,早餐得另點,基礎配置的真是慘淡,連顆🥚都木有。
