Lovely but some improvement required.
Pros:

The bedroom was lovely. Staff were very friendly

Cons:

The bathroom was very disappointing - really small - my husband (over 6' could hardly get in). Mouldy ceiling too. No water in the room. The breakfasts were only ok.

Pros:

The suite was nice and spacious with a wonderfully comfortable bed.

Cons:

Walking across the road to go for breakfast, water pressure in the shower is lacking.


When searching for a property I ALWAYS add parking to my criteria, it doesn't need to be free but I want it to be available. Between the little inn and the sister hotel over the road there is an excess of 50 rooms between the 2 buildings with 11 parking bays and 1 disabled bay.

Parking in Grasmere is troublesome on a quiet day but when booking a stay that has parking as a criteria it's a huge issue. Had we not fallen lucky with a disabled bay on the green we would of been cancelling the stay under what could be argued as false advertisement.

Probably opt for a quieter property
Pros:

Hotel is on main road with traffic and busses passing by all hours. You always get the noisiest rooms booking through a third party. We had to change rooms for a quiet room. Did not sleep the first night.
Breakfast was very good cooked to order with lots of good choices.

Cons:

Breakfast was very good lots of great choices
