“The White Heather Hotel, nestled near Wigton, offers a particularly warm welcome, especially for those travelling with dogs. Its location on a former WW2 airfield gives it an unusual, appealing character. I found the full English breakfast hearty, and the dessert trolley is clearly a highlight for many.”
