“The location, nestled in a quieter corner of the Lake District, immediately appealed to me. I appreciate the hotel's commitment to disconnecting guests-no televisions or constant connectivity here. It feels like a genuine escape, supported by home-cooked meals and a clearly dog-friendly approach that extends beyond mere tolerance.”
