We liked everything from start to finish. Our room was gorgeous, couldn't believe it as it was a dog room, I was so happy. It was our anniversary and they left us a card, with chocolates, and a treat for the dog. The breakfast was sooo good, couldn't fault anything, we could choose anything on the menu, as much as we wanted. They had live music in the bar Friday & Saturday night. Excellent

The best vegan breakfast I've ever had! Also at a great pub. Would definitely stay here again.

The breakfast was excellent with about 10 choices. The staff were always pleasant and helpful with advice about local attractions. The bedrooms were cleaned daily to a high standard. The bar staff were similarly helpful and pleasant.

Mitzithedog United Kingdom

Really good location in Hawkshead, great space inside and out. Friendly staff and the drinks were fantastic. Had a few G&Ts and they were made exceptionally well. Had a live singer on the Friday night too which was a nice surprise. Plus a roast hog on offer too as there wasn’t an offering of evening meal. Also breakfast was fantastic.
