first impressions very good, just a pity the food didn't match the surroundings, I get better fish and chips at my local chippy. More

This was our first stop on this years trip to the Lakes. We were not disappointed, food was nice and in house beer fab! The owner was really nice. We left happy and refreshed for the rest of our journey. We'd stop off here again. More

The room we stayed in (room 2) had plenty storage space and a decent about of floor space so it didn't feel cramped in the slightest. The en-suite was well equiped and clean. However when turning on the tap the plumbing made a bit of noise and hopefully i didn't wake any of the other guests. Food is good pub... More

We've been coming here on a regular basis for over ten years. Since their micro-brewery was opened a few years ago we wish we could come even more often.

When I rang to reserve the table, I was initially told they don't reserve tables but the lady who took... More

Breakfast very nice, staff friendly, would be better... More

As part of a group of friends we stayed at the Watermill Inn, Ings and checked in for two nights. On arrival I was surprised to mind no reception area at all and we had to check in at the bar. The first room we were allocated was room 5 this was a dreadful room at the top of the... More

Advised to pop in to luch on one of our frequent trips to the Lakes. We know the area well, and have passed by the hotel on numerous occasions. Went for lunch on a Saturday after seeing it advertising real pub grub. I expect to pay fairly premium prices in the Lakes, and this matched. Unfortunately the standard needs to... More
