Comfortable stay close to Scafell Pike
convenient location attentive staff dog friendly
The location was excellent (very convenient for hiking Scafell Pike). The staff were attentive. I stayed for two nights. I found the hotel very dog friendly.
I noticed the pool table and cues needed some maintenance. This was a very minor issue.
