Lovely friendly hotel in a great location
Pros:

Great little hotel in a stunning location. Easily accessible by public transport, with regular buses into Keswick and up into the hills, but you can find great walks just from the door. Staff helpful and friendly. Good breakfast and range of evening meals.
