10/10 Exceptional

Only stayed one night. Lovely quiet setting. The whole place has character. Staff were great and friendly, very accommodating. Beautiful views from the restaurant and bar of the gardens. Room was nice, tidy and clean although a little warm for my liking. Will be back for another stay soon!
Chris, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel is set in its own grounds which is very nice to spend time some time in on a nice day. My room was clean and comfortable and the bathroom had an excellent showera. It was very hot and the windows only open a few inches, no AC so on a hot day trying to sleep was uncomfortable. I had dinner at the hotel and it was decent, a bit overpriced for the quality though. Breakfast was good overall. Overall I would recommend this hotel.

Really great staff and dog friendly!

Had a short break at the Damson Dene and they were really brilliant accommodating me and my older dog. We got a ground floor room with lots of space for her bed and things. Pros: Geat wifi and the water pressure in the shower was amazing. Lovely gardens. Very helpful staff. Plentiful breakfast buffet (basic fried selection and cereal etc) Cons: Slightly unloved decor. Food in the restaurant was hit and miss.

Favourite after First Stay

The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Lovely place to stay in a special scenic part of the Lake District. I look forward to returning!
David, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed staying in the property. We had a car and can visit all the Lake District attractions from the location. The view of the hotel was superb and manage to take some nice snaps. English Breakfast was included and the hospitality was superb. I faced flush issue with the toilet but the hotel has resolved the issue within quick turnaround time. Very impressed with the quick resolving of this issue. The room service was also good with general toiletries, room cleaning and towels changed on a daily basis. I would like to extend my thanks to the hotel management for making our holiday memorable. Regards Konark
