The property looks very imposing from the short drive up to the frontage and upon arrival the speedy check in revealed we had been upgraded to a deluxe room free of charge. The room was very nice and the shower was fab delivering massive amounts of hot water with power. There was an iron and ironing board in the room which had lots of space including two comfy chairs, the bed was very comfortable also. The decor was nice and in keeping with the charm of the building’s heritage. Breakfast was fab on both mornings and good value at £10 each. We stayed in for an evening meal on the first night in the Oscars restaurant and the meal was very good quality and, with the exception of the wine which at £9 per glass, was good value. Very Covid safe with staff wearing masks and appropriate social distancing measures in force.
United KingdomWe stayed for one night, our room was in the main building and very comfortable with an interesting bathroom. Parking was good.
United KingdomFriendly and relaxed atmosphere despite current coronavirus restrictions. Great food in Oscar’s restaurant. Comfortable and spacious room. Would like to have had a room in main building rather than annex but really good hotel and would recommend.
United KingdomIt was amazing conditions, lovely room everything clean and food was perfectly splendid. Staff were so nice and facilities were amazing woll definitely be coming again.
United KingdomHotel was in a very good location, everything from the drive in to the reception and rooms, all were beautiful. Staff were very cautious and very efficient in maintaining the prevailing local guidelines. I would definitely be visiting again and I recommend to others.
United KingdomWe originally booked 4 nights to use the hotel as a Base for walking in the Lakes but had such a great time & hotel so good we stayed an extra night! Breakfast was superb, we had dinner in the restaurant 3 times & each was also fantastic (espesh the Sunday roast), the hotel is beautiful & during covid19 couldn't be any cleaner or take more precautions - it's 100% safe in our opinion. Location wise perfect & right by the Abbey which we had a good stroll round. Above everything though are the wonderful staff who without exception are friendly, helpful, professional & go above & beyond for their guests. They are a credit to their employer. Thanks to them & the Abbey House for giving us such a brilliant break in these troubled times. CHEERS!
