The hotel offers stunning views across Ullswater to the fells and a peaceful setting back from the main road. The rooms are cozy and feature a relaxing hot tub, but the dining options are limited. The service is warm and welcoming. The location is perfect for exploring the Lake District, but it's a bit of a walk to the pub or Pooley Bridge.
