"Lovley location"

9.0

Lovely location in a very small village , the rooms are an excellent size and very clean. The staff are very friendly . The evening we were there even had its monthly quiz night, which we enjoyed . The menu has a good choice but is not very extensive with choices, although there is a specials board with 3 choices on .The breakfast in the morning was good, with several choices available, including the usual cereals, toast fruit, etc, as well.

There's was only one staff member at the start of the evening and the pub was very busy and people had to wait for drinks and food as she was rushed off her feet. They should look at having more staff available earlier on, I would say, from about 5pm, although another member of staff turned up later , it felt like it was too late, and they lost some customers due to this.

"Unpretentious great local hotel"

10.0

An unpretentious local hotel sits within the heart of lake district community. Staff is very friendly and accommodating - I travelled solo with my two dogs and the hotel waved the fee for the dogs, much appreciated! The room has beautiful old beams and the view of the mountain. The bath room has a deep soaking tub, which is rare for a pub hotel (we stayed in Pip, which apparently means five in local language). From the bedroom window, watching clouds drifting on top of the hills whilst listening birds chirping and little lamb calling late into the night and first thing in the morning is heavenly!

It is not something we don't like just to help others understand the road condition. The road from the hotel to Bowness (nearest cruise point) is narrow and one needs to drive slowly and carefully. The locals do stop for you and reverse back first to the passing point to let you go, which is very kind. We spend the second night in the heart of windermere and we really missed the countryside community friendliness. So the road condition is not ideal but well worth it.
