Stayed here for 2 nights over the Jubilee weekend. There was a lot that we liked - the location was very handy for visiting the western lakes, the pub was easy to find with lots of parking and it was very quiet at night. Had breakfast and dinner each day and the food was excellent. Room was clean, modern and the bed was comfortable. There were a couple of issues though. A sloping ceiling meant you could only really use half the room and there was a low beam in a position where you easily could hit your head, especially if getting out of bed (we're not particularly tall!). We mentioned this and asked if we could swap rooms. The staff seemed surprised and said they'd not had any complaints before. They also said they were full and anyway all the rooms were the same. We rearranged the furniture and pushed the bed further over to the other side of the room which helped and we survived our stay without banging our heads. There was also a ridiculous mirror in the bathroom with a very bright light around it...actually so bright you couldn't look at it! It came on automatically with the overhead lights and there was no switch to turn it off. We used the mirror in the bedroom instead, but it was a bit inconvenient.

We've just returned from having a weekend break at The Old Posting House, and it was great. We took our dog and we were made very welcome. We had room 2 which was lovely, and perfect for dogs. The bed was a comfortable king size bed, and there was plenty of room for 2 people and a dog. The bathroom was also a good size, and the shower is great. The food here is wonderful and plentiful. We ate here both nights, and thoroughly enjoyed the food. We were able to take our dog with us into the bar area while we had dinner and breakfast. The owners, Nicola and Terry are so friendly and helpful, and nothing is too much trouble. We wouldn't hesitate to go back.

We had a lovely weekend stay at this country pub with rooms. The owners are lovely and very friendly and welcoming. Its a dog friendly place, so for us, that was perfect. Our room (room 2) was on the ground floor and had a door leading out to the garden, great if you have a dog. The room was a good size and very comfortable, with tea and coffee making facilities, tv and a hairdryer. The king sized bed was good and the bathroom was lovely. We ate dinner and breakfast here both days and the food was great, and the potions were huge. We're looking forward to a return trip.

Stayed for one night at this charming country inn. The owners were very welcoming and friendly, and offered fantastic hospitality. Quaint rooms that were fresh and clean and very comfortable. Modern updated bathrooms with great water pressure in the shower! Food was fantastic and the whole experience was comfortable and welcoming after a long day on the road.

This was our second stay at this lovely Inn. A very warm welcome from the hosts. Lovely dog friendly bedroom with access to outside. Immaculately clean and very comfortable. Enjoyed the food in the bar as well as the beer and wine. The pie was exceptional. Great breakfast with plentiful items in the full English breakfast. Handy parking even with a sheep trailer!. Hope to be back next year. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Friendly servers/hosts and freshly cooked food to order. This place is a hidden gem- so close to Cockermouth. I would definitely recommend this place! The menu is full of a variety of dishes to suit all tastes. Everything is freshly made with quality ingredients and this is reflected in the taste. 5 of us had delicious main meals and desserts. We will definitely return.

We booked 2 rooms here for 3 nights and found the place to be better than advertised. The rooms were well appointed and very clean. We found the beds comfortable and the rooms were quiet. Nicola and Terry were very nice hosts and took care of any requests we had. The breakfast options we very good and I had the Full English on all 3 days and it was consistent, hot and very tasty. We had dinner here the first night we stayed and I loved the Steak & Ale pie. Great serving size and delicious. My wife had one of the specials from the board, the Pork & Apple burger, it was very good. I had a bite for myself. The flavour just popped in your mouth. Lots of parking here and separate entrance for residents which was nice. We took a walk around the area and it is so picturesque. Nice seeing all the sheep in the fields. Can't say enough about the place... the bar area is perfect, warm and cozy. The Guinness was nice and cold :)

This pub/Hotel was fantastic, Nicola the host could not do enough to make you feel more welcome and at home, the foods amazing! the room was so clean and comfortable and had everything you could need. The breakfast was also amazing. If we do go to this area again i would not hesitate at returning, and also would encourage anyone who is staying in the area to try get booked in there, or even book a meal or Sunday Roast.
