Best Western Dryfesdale Country House Hotel  

Friendly staff, clean and good food.

The food is very expensive for a main meal.

We particularly liked the evening meals. Well presented, well cooked and tasty. We were traveling north and we booked and stayed a second night on our return journey south.

As functions were taking place we had to walk through the function room to get to our own room (this happened on both of our visits). We could not open our patio door on our second visit, in room 20 the door had been sealed because of a previous lock breakage. As it was quite warm we would have liked to have been able to open the door.

The never-failing helpfulness and friendliness of all the staff. They gave it the feel of a small family hotel. From the moment we saw the hotel from the motorway, on top of its hill, lit up invitingly, until we left, there was a feeling of comfort.

The WiFi was at best weak. Neither my daughter in her room, nor my wife and I, all with 3 different modes of access to the internet could gain access on the first night in our rooms, although we were assured that Reception was getting access. This improved on the second day, but access was a little weak.

Thel ocation - ie views

the place is very "tired" and everything is dark stained wood

Very friendly helpful staff

Rooms were too warm

Its location was perfectly placed half way from home to destination (London to Inverness) - and was dog friendly. Reception very welcoming - Room service prompt and efficient and all of the very good restaurant menu was available to taken in the room.

Having to take the dog through the restaurant to my room (The grounds were too soaking wet to allow access to room patio door access)

Real fire, good beer, excellent food, large bed, large room window not overlooked, responsive interactive staff,

I like to see many more relevant pictures and artifacts whilst wandering about.
