North Lakes Hotel And Spa

North Lakes Hotel And Spa

10/10 Excellent
"We had an excellent stay at the North Lakes hotel last weekend! As we were travelling with our toddler, we chose a superior room to allow for more space. The room was clean and appeared to be recently refurbished. The small extra touches such as a full-size fridge, coffee machine and welcome biscuit were welcomed. This hotel is fab for day trips into the Lakes and evenings in the impressive spa and restaurant onsite."

Shap Wells Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"A great overnight stop en route to Scotland. Wonderfully peaceful location with great walks around the hotel grounds. As others have mentioned do not take the direct sat nav guided route when you first leave the motorway. Follow the road to the A6 and enter from that direction otherwise you will be negotiating large potholes coming in the back way."

Macdonald Leeming House

Macdonald Leeming House

8/10 Good
"We love the Leeming House Hotel, it is sad though that since it was Trust House Forte, it has gradually become tired, some of the exterior paintwork needs urgent work, the gardens are not what they used to be, the rooms are fine, however loving the contemporary furnishings for the period of the house, it is disappointing that it is all a bit tired, some paint could be bought and A Little love put into the building. On the side of service, I am disabled and my wife went downstairs to get some tea at The about four or 430 in the afternoon and she found someone to order it from, because there was no telephone in the room from which to order room service! And she needed two trays of tea as her sister and brother-in-law were going to join us for tea and she was told that was no problem, but it would be £20 to deliver the tea, incredible for a Hotel of that quality to blatantly charge for something that is a normal service is incredible, obviously we were happy to pay for the tea but it was the delivery also my wife asked for some biscuits and they said they didn't have any!! After lunch with my coffee I did ask if there was any chocolate and Jeff the weekend manager who is so nice said they don't have chocolate in the building however he went away and found some delicious home-made shortbread, what happened to that teatime!! The next morning we had a very nice breakfast, although the enjoyment was dampened as my sister-in-law asked for a latte to be told that was an extra charg"
