My stay at the hotel was mostly enjoyable, thanks to the spacious and comfortable room, along with the beautiful grounds that offered a lovely retreat. However, the dining experience was less than ideal, especially in the evenings, and the food quality could use improvement. The staff were friendly and helpful, but the menu was quite limited during our stay. Overall, I appreciated the value for money regarding the room and breakfast but would suggest avoiding evening meals at the hotel.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The beautiful and spacious room provided a comfortable retreat, but I was disappointed by the service during breakfast and the noise disturbance from nearby Sellafield. The overall ambiance and dining experience were quite enjoyable, though I did experience some frustrations with the breakfast offerings. Overall, it has potential but there's room for improvement.

Staying at this hotel was an experience filled with both charm and some challenges. The room itself was spacious and had a lot of character, but the stained carpet was a bit off-putting. I was impressed by the quality of the food, especially the breakfast, but service inconsistencies, particularly during our first evening, left a mixed impression. The photos don't quite do justice to the beautiful grounds that provided a lovely backdrop during our stay.
