Mews Suite
Pros:

Got my own parking space with the Mews Suite. Also got access to the hot tub which was great on the nights no one else was around as it is shared with the other mews suite.

Cons:

The Bed! Felt like it was on dollar blades as it moved a lot very wobbly. But was comfy enough.

It was ok
Pros:

It was clean & in a good position

Cons:

There was nobody there to greet us just an envelope with keys in so we had to find our own room, there was no heating in the rooms so the rooms were cold as it was a very cold evening.

Stunning Grasmere idyllic
Pros:

We’ve stayed at TWEEDIES before. This time we were allocated a room in the Mews. It was lovely but we wanted to be in the main building. The staff enabled this to happen. Very helpful and friendly staff. Low key informal and atmospheric atmosphere. Excellent breakfasts.
EV chargers now on site.

Really lovely
Pros:

It was cost and classic

Cons:

Nothing really but found it odd that you can take a dog but have to sit in a carpeted lounge for breakfast rather than in the large breakfast room
We would much preferred to have been able to sit in the breakfast room
Could they have a few tables in the main breakfast room for dogs
