    The maintenance of the property could be improved eg our bedroom window ironmongery was falling off and the window required other repairs and redecoration however as the window was only single gazed perhaps now is the time they should be replaced with double glazed windows.

    Evening : meals were good quality and hearty with a good menu selection and a good range of beers and wine al at reasonable prices. Breakfast was excellent we had the Cumbrian breakfast which was of very good quality and was cooked to order .

    On the whole everything was fine. Our one gripe was with one member of staff who we found to be rather abrupt. For front off house not very impressed.

    The location and the comfortable room.

    Menu was expensive.

    Nice welcome, easy check in and out. Food needs attention. The crispy beef dish was bland. We had to leave early and we could order a packed lunch as an alternative to having breakfast.

    Property was great value for money. Inside bar/restaurant areas are really lovely, perfect place to unwind. Both breakfast and evening meal were tasty and plenty of choice of drinks. Biggest asset are the staff. Really friendly and accommodating. Managed to book a table of six for dinner ahead of our stay, in the morning a table of six for breakfast was already there waiting. A welcome change from the more crowded areas of the Lake District, and the hotel has ample parking. We went for a hike around Burnmoor tarn, setting off from Dalegarth railway only ten minutes away from the Bridge Inn and had a lovely day. Plenty choice of other walks near. Would not hesitate to stay again, thank you very much for having us!

    Only thing that wasn't perfect was window was starting to wear and I didn't really feel confident opening it. There are a lot of creaky floor boards but it's a very old building and this is normal

    Lovely place to stay. Very cosy fabulous breakfast and I dined in the restaurant with 14 friends and everyone was praising the quality of the food. Beautiful locatio and confy room. I would definitely stay again.

    Nothing really, a lovely restful place.

    The pub part is wonderful having been recently refurbished to a high standard. Breakfast and evening meals were excellent. The room and bed were comfortable and all areas were exceptionally clean. There was a good selection of local ales and whiskies. The staff were lovely, really warm and welcoming. Will be back soon with my wife and dog. Very good value for money compared to local competitors, I have stayed at a couple of them. Handy for Wasdale and Eskdale.
