If you are looking for a cozy place to stay in a historic lodge with excellent food and friendly hosts, this is the place for you! The building is old and quaint, but spotless and extremely comfortable, and the park-like setting is spectacular. We loved it!

Stayed here for a week on business, lovely part of the country. The room was massive (the bathroom alone was about as big as some bedrooms) so very happy with this. Staff were friendly, ate in the bar on a couple of nights and the food was decent too.

This hotel has a warm, welcoming, relaxing 'feel'. We had a great corner room, roomy with an equally roomy en-suite. All very comfortable. All the staff were excellent, as was the diner and the breakfast.

We made a mistake and went for a Salsa evening on the 28th September with friends from Canada and Kendal. The event wasn't advertised on their website - just on their Facebook page. It was awful. We had pre-paid to go. When we arrived I noticed there were young girls arriving in sports attire. We were given red wrist bands to wear and shown into the main hall. It was set out very prettily. "Ah ha" I said to my guest, "we appear to be the first ones to arrive". We got some beers (a poor selection of two) and a jug of Sangria. down we sat and waited in some anticipation for the other guest to arrive. First a couple, then another, then...well, no one! that was it. All the other tables were empty and I must admit, it looked pretty sad. Musak played over the speakers while menu options needed to be chosen. I had a bad feeling we'd been duped. And 'lo!, the girls we'd seen earlier in sports gear were making an entrance right in front of our table dressed in shorts and tee shirts. It turned out that we had to witness a junior skipping club demonstration (yes – skipping!). This went on in fits and starts for an hour or so during which, the rather fine meal was served. My husband and others were clearly deeply embaressed, he said he felt like Nero and only just caught himself from throwing bones and food leftovers to the performers in reluctant appreciation. Our food went cold as we couldn't eat while the performance was on. I asked a member of staff what was going on and why this strange spectacle wasn't advertised on their facebook page and why wasn’t on the hotel’s main website. She shrugged it off with the age old response, "I'm only the bar person". The chef looked on disgruntled; "if this thing flops again I'm moving on". The salsa classes when they started were quite good. After a while, the more experienced dancers (one from Elgin) took over, and dominated the floor, some with obvious distain at us newbies. The place was meant to close at 11:45 but we couldn't take the it any more and called for our £80 taxi and left at half nine for home. I felt really bad for our guests and out pal from Kendal who was hoping for a good night as it was his birthday. WHY DIDN'T THE MANAGER CANCEL THE EVENT WHEN THEY KNEW THAT IS WAS GOING TO BE BADLY ATTENDED? Why doesn't the owner reply to my emails for an explanation? I can only think that she doesn't care. We won't be back and I'd advise you think very carefully if you pre-book for an event advertised on Facebook.

We apologise profusely that you had such a disappointing evening. We know that we had been expecting a much better turn out and the event was very disappointing for us too. We assure you that the reason the owner has not responded to the email you sent yesterday evening is not that she doesn't care, but because she has been away from the hotel since yesterday afternoon for a personal visit. The staff thought it would be best to allow her to respond to you when she arrives back this evening which I assure you she will. Apologies again for your bad experience.

The best things are the overall country house ambience and the excellent service from all of the staff who are willing to “go the extra mile” for their guests. Food is definitely good without being outstanding. Where things fall down a bit is in the bedrooms- chipped furniture, broadband which only seems to work on the ground floor, quirky switches on the bedside lights, and bathrooms which are dated to put it kindly - definitely not 2018 executive spec. To sum up, it is a good place to stay, just don’t expect the Ritz.
