The aim of our recent extensive refurbishment programme was to create rooms with a “wow” factor, using stylish contemporary décor to the highest standard of local craftmanship, to make the most of the breathtaking panoramic views of the Borrowdale Valley and surrounding fells.
All rooms are individually designed – several with patio doors leading directly to the garden, so guests have convenient easy access, others have balconies with views to enjoy the fresh air. All rooms have modern bathrooms, flatscreen TVs, DVD player facilities, refreshment trays and other treats so guests can relax and retire to their rooms in comfort after an invigorating Lakeland walk or local sightseeing trip.
