Stayed here a few times and also my colleagues stay here when in the area. Almost everything was great, however my only complaints are that the pillows were flat which meant it wasn’t the comfiest sleep and the coffee at breakfast wasn’t nice. Pie of the day for dinner was great once again.

Fantastic staff, excellent breakfast, super parking, very clean modern room, free WiFi, Netflix and prime TV, good bed, in room tea & coffee with biscuits, to take good to great would be the addition of a blackout blind to the room window & a shelf / surface in the ensuite to put toiletries on.

Spent 2 peaceful nights at the Melbreak Hotel. It was really handy for exploring the Lake District which we were happy about, the only downside was the 4.30pm check in time which we thought was quite late but we still had a lovely time. All the staff we spoke to were friendly and chatty.
