We booked 3 nights in the spa room, with breakfast and supper included. We also got a packed lunch on one day. We later found out this was the last weekend they were open until later in January, and in fact we were the only guests on our last night. We were still made to feel welcome, and the service was proactive.|This is an excellent location for walks, and the hotel caters to walkers/hikers.||The room was cosy, warm and comfortable, yes, a little tired, but quiet, good bed, large TV, everything works. We slept very well.|The jacuzzi bath was very welcome after a cold wet day tramping around the Hardknott Roman fort and pass; the only regret is that we couldn't see anything out of the roof window because of the cloud cover. On a clear night, this would be spectacular.|Breakfast offered a good range of meals, and the evening meals were also very tasty. The mutton chili sounded a bit strange, but was fantastic--not too spicy, flavourful, and a healthy portion size. The only downside of food is that the packed lunch (sandwich, biscuit, fruit) felt a little overpriced, especially after we realised (the next day) that we hadn't been given any fruit. However, we didn't want to fuss around packing in our own food, and there's nowhere else to buy sandwiches.
