Overall a great stay and we'll go again given the opportunity, even if the shower was a bit tricky. Really friendly staff, evening dinner and breakfast delicious with big portions, even a small portion of the Cumbrian kept us going the whole day.

Was a lovely room and food was decent, not much options for gluten free, but was okay. If you intend on using the bar be mindful if your are too loud laughing you will be told to hush :( x

The Inn was great. Nice peaceful location with lots of character.
My only negative was that although WiFi was included it did not work at all.

No hot water for shower. When staff was informed, they said they'll fix it, although this only benefit the next guest. No offer of hot shower elsewhere or reduction to bill etc. Disapointing.

Issues with wi-fi and shower
Excellent food and room was comfortable but wi-fi in the room was awful and the shower appeared to have only two

Easy and convenient parking. Friendly and welcoming staff. Excellent restaurant with great options for the whole family. The room was clean but hot as we happened to be there on a rare hot day. We had dinner there and the breakfast included with our stay was great. Many options for breakfast and were all popular with our family. Thank you.
