Automated check-in, really nice bed. Generous breakfast, exceptional service. Vintage room & marble-lined bathroom. Great lobby. Strong coffee, ales, cocktails and gins in the lounge bar, private parking place. An easy walk to the stunning beach.

Highly efficient staff, super breakfast, sweeping view, good value. I got free upgrade and enjoyed it. The hotel has optimal location close to Helvellyn and Keswick and Kendal. Smooth check in and fast check out. This was my second very relaxing stay here and I would definitely return here.
