The stay was good. The hotel was good value for money and was very clean. Staff were helpful and professional. The location is great - walkable to Windermere and Bowness. The parking was mostly ok - there is more parking at the back of the property, however at one point the manager had blocked the entrance to the car park with their own vehicle which meant it was not accessible to guests. This was poor form in our opinion - the receptionist hesitantly advised it was the managers vehicle when we made them aware there was a car blocking the car park and that we’d parked a few streets away - and nervously offered to ask them to move it - but knowing how limited the parking is, the manager shouldn’t have blocked the access. A couple of other points for improvement: the 4-poster bed whilst a nice idea wasn’t very practical as the view of the TV from the bed was blocked by one of the posts. Water was also not replenished each day, we were only given one small bottle each in the room when we arrived. The decor in places was tired - the hotel could do with a refresh, but overall this was good value for money and we would stay here again.
