Die Unterkunft war so komfortabel, dass wir eine weitere Nacht verlängert haben. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmte und beim Frühstück gab es eine große Auswahl.

A disappointment could ruin your experience.
Pros:

Location and Ambiance

Cons:

We were told that they have already asked the housekeeper to put a fan on our room but when we got back to our room theres no fan. When we did follow up about it we were told that all fan are already in use. We did request that fan night before. Would be better if they did check the weather forecast so that they have prepared enough fan for every room. We were not able to sleep property as we are sweating!

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.

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

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.

Cons:

La colazione, discreta ma non al livello con il resto.
