The service is first-class, but the hotel is in a remote location, which is very inconvenient if you don't drive yourself. The hotel has a bar service, and many nearby guests come to eat and drink

I stayed in so many hotels in the UK this time, but this was the only one that ******. This is basically a family hotel run by Indians, not a chain hotel, and I was really fooled. We are a family of three with one child. They said the room was too small to accommodate us, so they charged us an extra two nights of 1,200 RMB. But then they said there were no rooms available and they only changed the room for the second night. Why did they charge us two extra nights? This problem does not exist when staying in other hotel chains. This kind of thing happens in small family hotels, and Ctrip should not list such hotels. Comparing the service and price, it is better to book a chain hotel if possible. The facilities are also very average, just a mountain hut, small and damp. As for the location, it is very close to Windermere Railway Station as the crow flies, but this is a deception. In fact, you can't get there. You need enough time to take the ferry, and then you have to transfer to the bus. Transportation is very inconvenient. We came out of the train station and took a taxi around the lake for 30 minutes, which cost 400 RMB.

Stayed here for one evening in December 2024 after a few big days hiking. I liked it very much. The staff were very good and attentive the room was very comfortable with a big bath in the en suite. I ate here both on the evening and in the morning both meals were good and very tasty. The view from the bedroom was excellent, waking up to see the bright sun light up the frost.

We stayed at the Cuckoo Brow Inn for one night on our way to Edinburgh and it was very good. The hotel is ran by a family that is very welcoming, kind and helpful. The room was very clean, cosy and quiet in the middle of the woods. We ate there for dinner and the food was quality and fresh.

Beautiful & peaceful setting during autumn. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Warm and cosy atmosphere with fire, bar and food. Relaxed atmosphere. Bedroom was very spacious and clean. They even provided a bottle of fizz as requested from my partner, and even a vase of roses and towl swans on the bed which was unexpected and beautiful. The staff went the extra mile. (As it was my birthday) The only thing we would have appreciated more is a smart tv in our room rather than just a free view tv. The food and bar was lovely too, good choice of food, maybe a few more dishes for vegetarians would have been good. A good selection of drinks, service again was amazing. Definitely recommended.

Absolutely loved this hotel. It's in a lovely quiet scenic area. The room was really nice with a massive bed. The food was really good and plenty of variety in drinks at the bar. Cosy wood fire burning away in the bar/restaurant area while enjoying your food and drink. And the family that run it are lovely and very welcoming and can't do enough for you. Highly recommend and ill definitely be staying there again.

It was magical stay in cosy and beautiful Inn. The ambience was amazing and the food served in restaurant was exceptional, way above the standard we came across before.Staff was great and very welcoming. The Inn is located in a great area, any path we took led us to breathtaking scenery! That was the first time we took our lovely Roger with us, and he enjoyed every moment. We definitely coming back there!
