Clean small room. Had everything you needed. Pass code to get into each room which was better than a key. Breakfast was great. Location is great. Have to use the back entrance down al alleyway after 9pm. Local car park is £9 for 24 hours so take this into consideration. Only issues we had was the mattress was rock solid. Both woke up multiple times and was in pain the following morning. & the shower would not stop dripping after being turned off fully which kept us awake a lot too.

Beautiful spotlessly clean little room. Very friendly staff and a superb breakfast. Right in the centre of Hawkshead. Highly recommended !

No parking outside the property so a £9 extra in a car park 200 yards away, after struggling with bags and a dog with no help by the staff behind reception as he was too busy on his phone on a call, got to my room and the only shelf in the small room was broken, the maintenance guy came and said it's been broken for ages, not good all this at the start of a new season, the room was cold as the small radiator didn't warm it...the following morning the girls manning reception were both spot on plus the breakfast food and coffee was delicious.
