Won’t stay again, I’ll go to the Inn in Gosforth again next time.
Pros:

Expensive and no better than the place half the price we stay in the night before

Cons:

The bathroom was filthy. All along the bottom of re sink was dirty and the bath may was black underneath! Also they didn’t do a very good vegan breakfast for my husband despite me letting them know in advance. In this day and age that is not acceptable from somewhere charging £130 per night.

Pros:

Close to Scafell Pike, the staff were friendly.

Cons:

The property was extremely dated and the heating was switched off, so it was very cold when we arrived. For what we got I thought the prices wasn't great.

Pros:

Location was beautiful. Grounds very well kept. Free-roaming birds a lovely surprise

Cons:

Self catering cottage. Would have been nice to have basics like salt/pepper provided.
Beds were very uncommon
Windows painted shut - was hot so this was inconvenient
