Moresby Hall

Stayed overnight whilst visiting family in the area Had a double room on top floor with lovely views of sea Very spacious, clean and quiet Comfortable beds - even with spa shower and in set tv in bathroom ! Lovely breakfast- well looked after by one of the owners of this historic building Yes - it’s quirky and old but rooms were warm and comfortable Will definitely use it again

We had such a beautiful stay at this hotel. The atmosphere is very calm, and there really aren’t many places like this. We have a reactive dog, and honestly couldn’t have dreamed of a better place to stay. The staff were all super friendly, Emily booked us amazing room and Dave, what a great guy! We will definitely come back!

What a lovely stay we had in this beautiful hotel stayed there with family who were visiting from Ireland dinner was lovely staff were so accommodating nothing was too much trouble thankyou for a lovely stay would most definitely recommend this hotel the rooms are beautiful 4 poster bed shower is fabulous Thankyou Steph and Joanne

Absolutely outstanding building, the features are amazing, love the mix of modern and historical, the food is rustic with a massive homely feel, portions sizes are incredible 😊 All the staff are welcoming, very polite and helpful. The period rooms are stunning the interior on a whole is a mix of Bridgeton’s / Downtown abbey. Room was comfortable with everything we needed and very clean 🤗 The beach is a less than a ten walk across the road the train station is also less than ten minute walk and the whole place is dog friendly.

Visited on Sunday 10th August 25 for a Sunday dinner, we ate at 7pm. I was so looking forward to eating here after good reviews. But it was one of the worst Sunday dinners I’ve had. The beef was chewy, the roast potatoes looked like they’d been there all day. Other vegetables really hard, I think they were some sort of swede. After that we had desert, which for me was a lemon cheese cake, and it wasn’t up to much either, hardly any lemon cheese on it. I was really disappointed as we had gone specially for my husband’s 70th. Don’t feel like going back again.

Booked two rooms for a 2-night family visit for bed, breakfast and evening meal for 4 of us plus our two dogs.|We loved every minute from the moment we arrived until the moment we left.|Joanne, Stephanie, and the rest of the hotel team—especially Harley—were friendly, accommodating, and eager to ensure we all had a great time.||Our bedrooms were lovely, really comfortable, airy and full of character.|The hotel has a lovely vibe, with tasteful decor and opulent furnishings.|We all slept excellently on both nights; as weird as this may sound, the fresh bed linen smelled divine.||Breakfast was good, with plenty of choices, including cooked, continental and cereal options. Our two dogs had a sausage each on the first morning and were very keen to attend breakfast the following morning for more of the same. Our evening meals were delightful, with a broad choice, including specials that covered every dietary requirement. The only slight quibble was steak knives needed sharpening. We ate in the bar area as we had dogs with us, and they were not allowed into the restaurant, |which was perfectly acceptable.||We have a very wide car, and the guest entrance was tight. The owners cannot do anything about that as the property is grade one listed, so take care and check your angles! If you have a vehicle that is too wide, you can drive past the main entrance and go through the delivery entrance, which is wider.|The weather was beautiful on our first day, and we enjoyed a trip to Whitehaven. However, it was very stormy when we arrived and left, so we didn't get to explore too much on foot. We did manage a walk down to the beach each morning, though, with the dogs, who thoroughly enjoyed running around.||Some hotels state that they are ‘dog-friendly’ only for us to discover that they are more ‘dog-tolerant’. Moresby Hall is truly ‘dog-friendly’, and the hotel boss is Harley, who greeted us in reception, chilled out with our two dogs and then trotted out to the car to bid them farewell when we left. A wonderful character and an asset to the hotel!||We look forward to revisiting next year and have already selected our rooms!||P.S. In a previous chapter of my life, I was responsible for arranging and hosting commercial training events and board meetings for directors. Having had a nose around the function room on the 1st floor, which was set up ready for a training function, I can recommend anyone looking for a venue in this area to check out the facilities here. It certainly has the ‘wow’ effect.

It was hard not to give full marks to this hotel, ideally located on NCN 72, Hadrians Wall C2C. The service was excellent I enjoyed my evening meal and breakfast. We were given a warm room to store our bikes. The bed was comfortable. It was let down by being a bit tatty in places, the equipment in the bar was so noisy we couldn’t sit in there and chose the reception area. I would stay again.

Bags of history, very much not a bog standard chain hotel. A good location for exploring the coast and great Lake scenery. Hotel bedrooms were Fine and made good use of the space, though the bathroom was a bit cramped and we could have used blackout curtains. Food was a bit variable, mine was pretty good, but several said their evening meals were a bit dry. Staff were great, friendly and very helpful indeed, a real asset to the place. If you have a few hundred thousand ££ maybe the whole building could be renovated and opened up.
