    The fan outside, probably for the kitchen was REALLY noisy, but thankfully it stopped by 10pm. The room was very hot ...not because of heating, I think it was simply that it had been a hot day. We found a fan in the wardrobe and that helped a bit.

    The bedroom and bathroom were exquisite. It was spotless, and furnished beautifully. The food and service was lovely. Ample parking and well located for those travelling to or from Scotland from the south, it was exactly half way! The bonus for us, was driving into the Dales at night to watch a spectacular show of the Aurora Borealis!

    Dining finished at 7 on Sunday - but we arrived just before and they made sure we were fed.

    Lovely setting, and great room with lots of space and really nice toiletries.

    Only negative would be the temp in the room we were in was a little high for us, but a minor blemish ( we didn’t speak to mgt about it - but had we, I am sure they would have done everything they could to resolve)

    Everything was spotless, loved the decor, breakfast was yummy . We ate in the restaurant one night - food was very delicious and reasonable . Well worth a try.

    Nothing really, just a point to note is that the pub is located on a main road, perfect for us as it was easy for our onward journey.

    Excellent stay at the Plough Inn. The pub is absolutely lovely. We had a very warm welcome and everyone went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable. We had a delicious meal in the bar area (we had our dog with us so not in the restaurant) . The menu was varied and our food was excellent in quality and perfect sized portions. Our room was comfortable and elegantly decorated with a large bathroom. Lovely toiletries to enjoy as I soaked in the freestanding bath tub! Thank you to all the staff especially Robert for the warm welcome, the evening waiter (sorry we didn’t catch your name) and Lianne who was the perfect breakfast host!

    This is nothing the hotel can actually control, but is just anecdotal feedback on our stay. The guests in the room above us were incredibly loud and "heavy-footed". At times it felt like they were in the room with us. I'm sure this is only an issue due to the age of the building, however, it did interrupt my wife's sleep several times through the night.

    Location easily accessible from the motorway and in a prime spot for visiting pretty much anywhere you'd like in the Lake District. Friendly welcome from the team and great food.

    Noise travels through the building (it's an older building), so if you're staying under another room you may hear them throughout your stay.

    The room we stayed in was great; my partner and I stayed with our dog and there was plenty of space. The bathroom was beautiful (especially the stand alone bath). Staff were helpful and breakfast was really good too.

    What a find! We'd just completed a Scotland road trip and didn't want to stay in a Travelodge on the way back (as we did on the way up) and saw a room free here. This will become our go to place for a mid way stop, it's just off the motorway, but set in beautiful countryside so we could take our dog for lovely walks. Staff were attentive and friendly, the room was incredible, the most spacious one we've had our whole two week trip, and the bathroom was huge! We had dinner and breakfast there and both were delicious. Really dog friendly, and just so laidback and chilled. After dinner, we moved to the bar and played board games until it was time for bed, which was really comfortable. It was a shame we only stayed the one night!
