a good retreat

cozy room delicious lunch warm hospitality
i enjoyed the warm and cozy rooms that provided everything needed for a comfortable visit! after my long walks through the lake district, the bath was very relaxing. breakfast included fresh options and was a great start to my day. the walkers lunch was really good with a nice brie and cranberry sandwich, and i would definitely return for it.
the spiral stairs to my room made moving luggage slightly difficult though the rest of the stay was very pleasant.

The staff was wonderful. They were very attentive. Breakfast was a highlight. Top quality ingredients and dynamite coffee. The location is central, very close to shops and cafes.
I found the number of stairs challenging. There were four flights, then a spiral staircase, difficult for me. The towels were small bath towels. I wanted proper bath sheets.
