Old England Hotel

Lovely overnight stay with warm and welcoming staff from the moment we arrived

Relaxing night away

Have stayed here once before with friend 3 years ago. My husband had wanted to stay as we go to Bowness at least once a year. Arrival welcome was good, we decided to use the car parking service, 20, as it wasn't the best weather and we would have only saved about 6 parking nearby car park. We had superior double room, facing the lake. Amazing views from large windows. 2 comfortable chairs by window. Comfortable bed, pillows. Furniture bit dark and dated, but not shabby. Good wardrobe space, full length mirror, dressing gowns and slippers. Large shower, not great water pressure though! We used the pool and sauna, given towels and locker token, nice and relaxing. The 3 course meal was good choice, supplements for some items, but as you'd expect. Couldn't fault anything we ordered. To me after having previously stayed, the breakfast wasn't as good as it had been. Was decent choice of help yourself, fruit, yogurts, pastries, etc. Hot was ordered. One sausage, have had tastier, bacon, choice of egg, and half a tomato, the black pudding tasted and looked as if been cooked in loads of oil and not the best taste. Enough tea or coffee and toast. Drink prices from bar typical hotel prices. All in all a nice stay but as not a cheap place to stay we would probably not return, as have stayed in cheaper priced hotels which are equally as nice.

No review title

Overall we enjoyed our three day stay at the hotel. We were very disappointed with the meals served in the dining room, The breakfasts were poor and we found it difficult to believe that a full English could be cooked so badly. Complaints to the staff about this were dismissed as they thought we were joking!
Anyway we thought the hotel was letting itself down by not addressing this properly
