Nice comfortable room great views, lovely spot, will be back for a longer stay.
Pros:

food was great, lovely breakfast freshly cooked and hot . Staff were friendly and helpful we were able to check in at 1.30 - and parking is free.

Cons:

bed was a bit hard for me, and the curtains didn't fit properly so very light. The shower had no power at all the fixed head was fitted too high so the water was just a trickle - not really an issue for a one night stay.

Pros:

The breakfast was exceptional. A range of buffet options available in addition to a large cooked breakfast. We also had an evening meal which again was a huge portion and delicious.

The staff were incredibly friendly, informative and always on hand.

The room was spotless and the view from our window overlooked Buttermere and the surrounding fells.

A lovely inn with fantastic pub and staff in a wonderful town. Walk to the waterfall out back!
Pros:

Great little inn right on Buttermere Lake with a beautiful waterfall walk right behind the property. Lovely pub and dining experience just downstairs with exceptionally kind staff. Big bathroom with very nice shower and skylight. Great parking and location in town with walking access to shops and cafes. Authentic Lake District experience.

Cons:

Rooms are a bit dated and you can tell the old carpet has been walked on by many wet hikers. Fresh paint and carpet would go a long way.

Stunning location, fantastic staff.
Pros:

Stunning location and views. Excellent check in times and parking facilities. Staff were exceptionally friendly and competent and put me at ease as a single female traveller. Great room and comfortable bar.

Cons:

There was nothing I didn't like. It would have been improved by having umbrellas in the beer garden though there was some shade from trees.
