I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is excellent for exploring the Yorkshire Dales and Lake District, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. However, I found the rooms to be outdated and in need of a refurbishment, which was a letdown. Overall, it has its strong points, but some areas definitely need improvement.

I had an overall good experience at this hotel, thanks to its stunning lakeside views and friendly staff who were very accommodating.

I had a lovely break at this hotel. The rooms are well-equipped for cooking and doing laundry, which was a bonus, but I wish there had been a chest of drawers instead of just a desk. The location is superb for exploring the Lake District, though we did experience a bit of noise from the nearby road. Overall, a good value for the price, especially with their friendly staff and accommodating service.

The hotel is situated near the M6 and rail line, making it convenient for traveling. The lodge itself offers a clean pool and leisure facilities, which I enjoyed. However, I found the location could have used a little more attention since it felt a bit drab and not very good for fishing. The check-in and check-out times were also a downside, impacting the overall experience.
