Not having a shower is literally the only negative I can give on this hotel (Room 11) There is a handheld shower head but after a days walking a proper stand up shower is essential (to us). Other than this I have nothing by praise for the place. Good food, good rooms, fantastic staff.
Thank You!!
Attic room verging on unsafe on stairs.
Staff lovely and accomodating but limited information given at all times.
No milk in room. Signs saying if you want extra milk ask( not on those stairs).Noisy at night as work being done on the kitchen and lighting bright until 2.30 am.Bedding stain but unsure if via wash process. Breakfast ok .
Lovely room at front of hotel included a balcony with seating to enjoy the view of the high street and front of hotel. Good location for Ullswater in centre of Pooley Bridge. Onsite restaurant had good varied menu and full breakfast options were delicious. Comfortable bed and onsite parking. Staff friendly and very helpful.

Good Hotel
The staff at this hotel are absolutely excellent. Room facilities great, but the room was on the first floor and I had asked for accessible room as my husband has severe mobility issues. In effect when he left the room it was a struggle for him to go back during the day until he absolutely had to.
The whole place is spotless and great location, the price was fantastic for a family and the room had nearly eveything you could need ( no milk for a cuppa). Only snag was it was red hot and the staff didn't know how to turn off the bathroom heater which was in full whack and too hot to touch, the window in there is a low level skylight accessible from the bath by a child so not safe to remain open as advised by the lady on the phone, so myself and my children were up and unsettled all night so we left shattered and unrested, breakfast was also good.
This was our 4th visit to Pooley Bridge. It has parking and free WiFi. The menu is varied and well priced. The staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms are pretty, functional and the beds are comfortable. The towels are huge and fluffy.
Really enjoyed our stay, lovely clean room. Can’t fault the staff as they were incredibly helpful, even though the inn was packed thanks to a sunny Easter Sunday!
Alasdair the manager was very helpful in sorting our problems and I was highly impressed by the lengths he went to , to solve our problems. He and his staff were all pleasant and helpful. I would highly recommend this hotel . Unfortunately we arrived too late to eat .
Friendly staff who work extremely hard. A very central location for walking the Ullswater way and accessible by public transport, only 20min bus from Penrith station.
Fantastic location, convenient base for short Ullswater stay. Staff mostly great and welcoming, rooms very clean, corridors and paintwork showing wear and many scuffs.
Room tea coffee facilities excellent, evening meal was very average and probably over priced. Breakfast, service and overall environment lovely and excellent service. Set us up well for the day and one of the nicest breakfasts I've had. Would definitely consider a return stay when in Ullswater.
