Very pleasant overnight stay. Would definitely use again.
Pros:

Excellent location
Cooling fan on in the room on arrival which was appreciated!
Comfortable bed and sofa
Lovely bathroom
Very clean

Cons:

Not much at all. A fridge would have been nice in a suite and being really picky - I would have preferred the bathroom fan to not have stayed on quite as long after the light went off, as very noisy in the night after being to the bathroom

Pros:

Clean, aesthetically pleasing, fun design choices. Outdoor food and drink area might be it's best feature, beautifully located and very pleasant on an evening.

Cons:

Very warm in the heat of summer, no air conditioning or fan in room. Didn't get good rest as a result. Also, has internet TV but won't connect to the internet.

Un piccolo Hotel perfetto per immergersi nel fascino del Lake district
Pros:

Struttura molto bella, al centro di un ampio, bel giardino a poca distanza dal lago. Camera grande e molto bella. Ottimo anche il ristorante.

Superb Lodge

Stunning building with great decor. The location for what I needed it was perfect, on site parking a real plus. The overall standard was excellent, reflected in a fair price. The evening meal in the restaurant was superb, as was breakfast, with exceptional service from the staff we met.

Cons:

Nothing to not like!

Lovely weekend in the Lakes, clean and tidy accommodation but be aware the hot tub is shared so not ideal for us!
Pros:

Central to Grasmere breakfast great .

Cons:

The hot tub was a communal one… did not work for us!!
Suggest each mews have their own hot tub

Lovely staff helpful and freindly staff.
Pros:

Its a shame you had to walk outside of the hotel to get to the Bar and restuarant. We ended up buying our drink from the Bar then bringing them into the lovely sitting room of the hotel as this was far more comfortable than the Bar.

Cons:

Location access to the Bar.
