Upon arrival we were advised we had already been told a room change would be required mid stay. We had not. Returning home we questioned with the agent who had not been advised either - they made a refund to us for part of the stay. Our point is that the hotel made up the reason for the room change...

Thank you for a wonderful three day break. The staff were so friendly & helpful, the food excellent and the bedrooms so comfortable and cosy, a truly enjoyable holiday in a fantastic area of the Lakes. Hope your Charity Lunch went well.

Have stayed in NDG a number of times over the past 5 years and watched the hotel steadily upgraded but has not lost the homely feeling. Staff friendliness a keynote here - nothing too much trouble, food excellant. If there is a more relaxing hotel - I haven't stayed there - and the countryside simply spectacular. Would not consider staying... More

Great place to stay. I stayed with 2 friends and we had an amazing time. The location for hiking could not be better. Hotel is great, it's clean, comfy beds and modern bathrooms. Brilliant value. Food is great, service is brilliant. We will stay again. Also, pub next door for a change.

The staff were great, really good humoured and the hotel is lovely - there's the odd bit of decor to be tidied up, but nothing really. The food in the hotel restaurant was really good -good... More

Thank you for your comments, and we do agree that we are very priviledged to live in such a beautiful location. We were sorry to hear about the water temperature problems, we cannot act on faults until they are bought to our attention.

The location could not be faulted and neither could the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Our room (superior) was fine, although very small for a "superior" room and although the bathroom was nice, there was NO bath...which I do expect in a "superior" room. The decor throughout the hotel(beyond our room) was a little shabby and tatty. Breakfast was... More

Thank you for your comments, we do have superior rooms with baths but most of our superior rooms have double showers , it is advisable when making a booking that you request your preference. Our dining room menu changes every other night but other options will be available on request. Our bar food menu is charged between £8.95 to £10.95... More
