Stayed for one night as a pit stop for our journey home. Room 4 was spacious with large bathroom with both bath and walk in shower. Nice cosy pub with log fire. Food was cooked fresh. We had the fish and chips and steak pie. Breakfast was cooked to order which these days makes a change. Staff very friendly both on booking in, in the restaurant and at breakfast. Sam made me dizzy she was so enthusiastic. Would stay here again if in the area. I tried to find something wrong and the only thing I could say was I would have liked more choice on the menu

Me and my partner have popped into string of horses maybes three times for something to eat and every time we have not been disappointed the food is mouth watering this time i booked the King-Superior-Ensuite for my partners birthday surprise if i remember rightly it was room 3 the room was cosy and warm the lay out was perfect if you ran out of coffee teabags or milk you only had to ask for more down side for my partner was that he could not get comfy in bed myself on the other hand did not have a problem saying that i can sleep on a bed of rocks and it wouldn't bother me haha to be honest everyone has their own idea of what a perfect mattress is the breakfast was lovely it definitely filled us up there was also a choice of coffee tea water as well as fresh orange juice and apple juice which of course also went down a treat from start to finish we enjoyed our stay as always the staff were lovely Thank you to all

We thought this Hotel was excellent in every way. The bedroom and bathroom were very spacious, light and beautifully furnished. Breakfast was superb, great choice and excellent quality. The staff were extremely friendly, and the adjoining pub, part of the Hotel, had a great atmosphere. In addition to all this the Hotel was cheaper than previous ones we had stayed in, in the same county which were nowhere near as good. The Hotel represented great value for money.

Room was dusty , and in need of a deep clean in places.shower water pressure was very poor. The meal in the restaurant in the evening was very good, but paradoxically the worst full English breakfast I’ve ever had. Everything was well overdone. Staff were really good, especially Chloe, very friendly and efficient.

Wanted a place to break the journey to Scotland. Found String of Horses on google that was available. Wow! What a find, an old Inn in a rural area outside Carlisle that has kept its rustic charm, low ceiling with wooden beams, wood fires etc but modern beneath the facade. The room was great, very comfortable with a great en-suite with bath and shower. The food was amazing, restuarant quality. Staff were lovely, Sam the perfect host. If it was close by we would go and stay for weekend breaks.

In general the accommodation was OK. However, when I booked a twin room, the beds were as follows, 1 large double and 2 folding coaches. The folding coaches were not very comfortable, and the one needed was not made up on our arrival. The bathroom was very nice, however the water pressure for the shower was very poor. Also to be noted, there are steep stairs going up to the rooms. The room was a good size and decorated nicely. Breakfast was nice, and staff friendly.
